Pros:

Das Apartment ist wunderbar. Tolle Lage, schöne Ausstattung, sehr nette und hilfsbereite Vermieter, super Kommunikation. Wir konnten von dort aus alles ganz einfach mit den Fahrrädern, die für die Gäste bereitstehen, erreichen. Wir würden The Grutto jederzeit wieder buchen.

Ottima soluzione per visitare Amsterdam e dintorni.
Pros:

La struttura ha messo a disposizione 4 biciclette (gratuite). La posizione (nord). Si raggiungeva il centro a piedi+bus+metro in circa 25m, oppure bici (15m)+ traghetto (15m, gratuito).

Cons:

Le scale sono ripide, non sarebbero ideali per persone anziane o con problemi di motricità. La seconda stanza è mansardata ... attenti a non sbattere la testa :-) !

Pros:

The accommodation is very beautiful and has a really cozy atmosphere. The hosts were extremely kind and welcoming, which we truly appreciated.

However, the courtyard/terrace shown in the photos was not available for use, which was a bit disappointing. Also, we think it would have been important to mention in advance that there is a small child living in the house.

We were four friends spending a weekend in Amsterdam and had specifically planned a child-free getaway to relax from our busy everyday lives, so this came as a bit of a surprise at the beginning. It did not cause any real disturbance during our stay, but we would have appreciated knowing about it beforehand.

Overall, we had a nice stay, but clearer communication about these points would make the experience even better.

Verlängertes Wochenende in Amsterdam
Pros:

Die Wohnungs Verwalterin war super lieb und sehr hilfsbereit. Sie war sofort zur Stelle wenn man fragen hatte.
Die Lage ist ruhig und die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel sind schnell zu erreichen.
Die Wohnung ist komplett ausgestattet und sehr sauber.
In beiden Schlafzimmer stehen Ventilatoren zur Verfügung.
Wir würden auf jeden Fall noch mal wiederkommen !!!

Cons:

Wir waren im Herbst vor Ort, bei angenehmen Temperaturen. Da die Wohnung über zwei Ebenen geht (ein Schlafzimmer ist in der Dachspitze) und keine Klimaanlage vorhanden ist, glauben wir das es im Hochsommer dort oben unerträglich warm wird. Man hat im Wohnzimmer eine große Fensterfront mit schöner Aussicht, aber leider fehlen dort Sonnenrollos.
Was bei einem längeren Aufenthalt auch zum Problem werden könnte, sind die nicht vorhandenen Kleiderschränke.
Die Lichtschalter waren teilweise sehr lustig.
Machte man z.b in einem Schlafzimmer das Licht aus, ging es in der Küche an 😄
