Wonderful place to stay on the ground floor half of a double house.
Direct next to Sarphatipark. The place is very complete, with a fully equipped​ kitchen, a bathroom with tub / shower.
Piano, TV and WIFI all available.

Public transport: Near crossing of Tram 4 and tram 3.

Cost, comfortable and well-located apartment
Our family of four had a great stay in this apartment. It was in a fabulous location only a couple minutes from the tram, a great park, and lots of shops and restaurants. The hosts were lovely and even had some toys for our kids to play with. The kitchen was very well equipped and there were some lovely treats for us to enjoy on our arrival. Highly recommend this apartment!

Welcoming and
My husband and I were on a several day Amsterdam stop with our young adult child. This was the perfect place to stay. Everything was clean. We had everything we needed. Claire gave us helpful tips when we asked. There is a book of recommendations as well. I also appreciate that extras from other guests are allowed to remain. That helped us out on a short visit. Lastly, Claire was great to interact with regarding our arrival. Thanks for a great stay! And one last thing - we loved the benches out front and easy access to a park. Great bonuses in a more urban setting.

We enjoyed our brief trip to Amsterdam and this home made it even more enjoyable. It is a comfortable place in a great location and we were very happy that there were no stairs to climb! I would definitely recommend this home to anyone.

Perfekter Ausgangspunkt für die Städtereise
Wir hatten tolle Tage in Amsterdam! Die Lage der Ferienwohnung war ideal. Die Straßenbahn war schnell zu erreichen und der nahe gelegende Streetfoodmarkt bot viele kulinarische Möglichkeiten. In den Schlafzimmern war es sehr ruhig und die Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern war sehr angenehm.

Wonderful family stay
My husband, our 4-year-old daughter, and I had a wonderful stay at Sven and Claire's apartment. It was exactly as listed. Claire and Sven warmly welcomed us when we arrived and were helpful throughout our stay. The apartment is in a great neighborhood and next to a beautiful park. I would absolutely recommend staying here when visiting Amsterdam, especially with a small family.

A fantastic place
This is a charming little place in a great neighborhood with a large park just outside the door. It felt like home right away and we were sad to leave afterv only four days. The hosts are kind and helpful throughout the entire process, and all the property details where provided. If we are ever lucky enough to come back to Amsterdam we would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable flat. Great location
The flat was perfect for our family of four. Our bed was large and very comfortable, and Our sons each had their own bed in a separate room. The flat was well appointed. The location was great. The street was quiet, and in a great location three blocks from the Albert Cuyp market (a great place to spend a few hours) and close to a fantastic gelato store (Massimo Gelato). Walkable distance to many great sites. We would definitely rent here again.

In a heartbeat
The apartment became our home. We were able to settle in and relax. The location was easy, tram and bakery at the end of the block, and a great organic grocery down the street. We were close to town but not in the touristy center. My husband and I take baths and, without a doubt the apartment had the best bathtub we have ever experienced. My feet were floating! Heaven. Oh, a washer and dryer. Was it perfect? No. It was a little worn and being on the quiet street level people could see in but I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

Family of 3 adults - Very comfortable & enjoyable
What a lovely place this is! A gem right in Amsterdam. Quiet, convenient, park next door, easy access to trams. Kitchen was perfect - all that one needs. We used washer and dryer - after some Google translation - it was a snap. Bathroom was great. I wanted to take a bath in that lovely deep bath, but didn't have time. Contrary to other comments about it being musty - I had absolutely no sensation of this - even on rainy and cold days. I highly recommend this adorable little nook in a big bustling city.

Nice apartment— fantastic location!
Wonderful small suite. Close to the hosts but quite private. It’s small, but very well laid out and has everything you will need. But the best thing is the location— steps from Saphati Park and several tram lines, convenient everything.

Absolute wonderful stay
We stayed in de pijp at Claire’s home for one week. It was perfect. Plenty of space, tools for cooking, blankets to stay warm, it was an all around excellent experience. And the location is perfect. 4 min walk to local tram, 10 minutes to the metro.

Dated but Convenient
In general, the place was a good one to stay in. The location is fantastic - easy walks to restaurants, the tram, the park, grocery store and more. Getting into the city centre from the location was easy. Communication with the hosts was easy - Sven met us in the flat and walked us through it and they checked in the next day to make sure we had what we needed. You do hear them chatting and walking above your head, though, which was awkward. The flat itself, as others have said, is musty and dated. The floor had patches that looked like they'd gone through repair without matching the existing floor, the walls need a coat of paint, there was a section of wall missing around the radiator in the smaller bedroom. The window in the main bedroom had a crack in it. There's not really a good place for luggage if you're not staying long enough to justify unpacking - especially if you're traveling with larger bags. I was able to keep mine squeezed in between the wall and the bed, but my friend had to keep hers in the living room as there was nowhere for it in the second room. Bathroom is a good size with lots of storage. Water pressure is great. Nothing but towels is provided, so make sure to bring your own. Kitchen seemed to be functional, though we didn't use anything other than the microwave, dishwasher and tea kettle. The listing advertised a washer/dryer, but we looked throughout and didn't find either.

Great in some ways, lacking in others
There was good and not so good with this booking. The Pros- the owners were very gracious and let us store our luggage there early even though the apartment wasn’t ready until 3 p. We really appreciated that! The bed was very comfortable. The apartment was quite roomy. The surrounding area was great- we were near the Albert Culyp market and many wonderful restaurants. Several tram stops are quite nearby. The owners were very responsive when we had issues with the TV then even stopped in to make sure everything was ok. The downsides- the apartment was terribly musty. It hits you as you walk in. My husband got quite congested with resp issues throughout our stay and I think it was related to that mustiness. The apartment is very drab and needs updating. It is dark with no color. Rather depressing but “functional”. There was only one pan to use for eggs and it was oversized. They could use some variety in pans and utensils. There were older, used dishcloths/sponges for the kitchen sink which was sort of disgusting. Even though only used once, those should be replaced with each rental. Finally, there was no soap for the shower. There was only the handwash from the sink. I kept forgetting to buy some when we were out but that is a basic you expect to be included in the rental.

Good Place but Some Issues Encountered
I booked this VRBO property for a vacation in Amsterdam. It was an ok place to stay; great location. However, there were a couple of issues that we encountered during our stay. No Fire Alarm: Upon arrival, we were shocked to find that there was no fire alarm in the unit, despite it being clearly listed as an amenity. This is not only a blatant violation of safety standards but is also illegal in Amsterdam. The lack of a basic safety feature left us feeling uneasy. This was brought up to them and was resolved the next day. However, since it is a safety concern, I do feel it is important to mention it here. Messy Visit: The owner informed us that they needed to replace the washing machine during our stay and requested access to the unit. Given the circumstances, we gladly granted permission. To our dismay, we returned to find the place in a worse state than when we left. Used coffee mugs were left unwashed, and the toilet was unflushed—a clear sign of disrespect and unprofessionalism. Unsafe Actions: To add insult to injury, during that same visit, the owner irresponsibly opened what can only be described as a rear window that functions as a door leading to the backyard. This not only allowed insects to invade our living space but also posed a serious security risk. Anyone could have entered the unit without our knowledge. Safety and security should be top priorities for any rental property, and this VRBO failed on both counts.

Terrific location in de Pijp
We enjoyed our four day stay in this 1st floor apartment. The location was convenient to trams, museums, and local restaurants. It was a great home base to pretend to be a local for a few days. A few comments for those considering this flat: - primary bedroom has a king size bed. I was pleasantly surprised! - secondary bedroom has two twins. Perfect for our teen - there will be noise from neighbors and the street - the coffee array offered in the flat was delicious! - the house includes lots of odds and ends in cupboards and drawers from prior occupants, so Americans may not have to by their own ketchup - very close to pastry shops, cafes, groceries, the park, and trams
