Activities/Attractions: Amsterdam is an unusual city in that it has all the advantages of a big city -- culture, history, food, entertainment, good transport - with relatively few of the disadvantages: it is physically small, beautiful, relatively quiet, and largely thanks to the canals, has relatively little traffic.

"A warm welcome is always well-received, especially when you've been travelling for 5 hours and you're tired. Karen & Paul are professionals, and it's evident they put themselves in the shoes (well, socks) of their future guests when setting up this charming B&B. Clean as a whistle, close to everything, and the complimentary blackcurrant gin kicks like a mule. Well worth a stop-in."

"Thank you for you hospitality. You made our stay in Amsterdam very enjoyable. We loved the clean, cheery rooms, fresh flowers and the chocolates. We will recommend this place to others. Thanks again."

"We wanted to see and do so much but with such a relaxing lovely room and the Vondelpark so near by, all we could do was chill out, relax and enjoy ourselves. Thank you for the pretty flowers in our room."
