This is a gem of a location on the Prinsengracht canal, a short walk to museums, beautiful canal walks, historical sights, the Jordaan, and the city center. Or if you want to wander further out and explore Oud-West and nearby parks, this is the perfect home base!
Cido and Rob are friendly and gracious hosts that will make you feel at home and like a local. Quick to offer great tips for ice cream, brunch, or the Saturday market in the square across the canal, they are sure to help make your stay in Amsterdam a memorable one. The apartment is comfy and a great spot for people watching the parade of boats on the canal and the bikers and pedestrians on the streets, yet still a quiet spot for a restful night of sleep each night to recharge for a new adventure the next day.

Lovely property with a picturesque view of a lively canal and local passersby. The very best location with helpful hosts. Just a note about stairs instead of elevators. Only a note - not to detour! Looking forward to our return.

Our stay in this lovely apartment overlooking the Prinsengracht canal was part of what made our visit to Amsterdam so wonderful. The apartment is on a quiet street and just a short walk away from public transportation, so it was easy to reach the museums and neighborhoods we wanted to visit. There are many good restaurants close by as well as several markets for food shopping. Everything was as described in the listing -- the apartment is airy and comfortable. Cido was very responsive to our questions both before and during our stay. Great place to stay!
