Wonderful welcoming hosts and such a unique experience to stay in an authentic 17th Century home. We enjoyed the tranquil walled garden and sitting in the canal boat and the location is excellent, within easy walking distance of the major sites.

Location is great, price was unbelievable, the space is exactly as shown on the listing. The bathroom tub and toilet area seemed to be a little too quirky for us but was certainly functional. Ann Marie is a great host and very helpful. Thanks for the enjoyable stay and the memories.

A wonderful stay at this Bohemian historic spot. Access to the boat on the canal was special and made this choice ideal. The basement location is certainly quirky but gives a real feel of old Amsterdam.

Great Stay

Anne Marie was an excellent host, she had lots of great tips on where to check out in the neighbourhood. Amazing location, super quiet despite being so central. The boat terrace was a unique perk that I really enjoyed. The place itself is as-advertised in the photos, the only caveat to keep in mind is that the ceilings are quite low.

WONDERFUL!

Let’s start with the host, Anne Marie. She was simply fantastic. So welcoming, friendly and helpful. The property is situated in a perfect location, central to most of the attractions. It’s brilliantly quirky with tons of character. I dare you to try and find a place at this price that has a nice sized kitchen, laundry facilities, plenty of space, your own private garden and a PRIVATE SAUNA. Good luck trying to find that!The garden was hands down my favorite. With high walls and tons of plants it was like a little sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you want a cookie cutter room look elsewhere because this place is all character.

Wonderful Amsterdam

Loved the location of this property. Quirky but lots of space and the outlook of garden is lovely. The use of the boat is a great bonus. Anne Marie was very helpful & answered all our questions. We would stay again & highly recommend especially for location - a magical visit to Amsterdam.

This property is very unique, and could be amazing with some declutterring, dusting, deep cleaning, garden cleanup, and air purification. The plumbing is funky, the ceilings are low, and you can hear every move of the tenants upstairs. We cut our stay in half, as it was very odiferous. That said, the location is great if you’re up for the adventure. The boat was a nice touch, and Anne Marie is very nice. She was accommodating with early check-in/bag storage.

An eclectic place to stay in the center of an eclectic city. Walk out the door and you face at once a canal lined with beautiful Dutch buildings! The neighborhood is full of restaurants, cafes, and shops frequented by Dutch as well as tourists

About the host

Hosted by Anne Marie Borsboom

Host profile image
Anne Marie Borsboom threw herselff as quirky adolescent already on the making cartoons consisting of four, five photos. Someone said: you should go filming. And so it came to pass. After the Film Academy, she went to work as Camerawoman and Director. Her new film BOI, Song of a wanderer and Homesick plus Carnival were broadcasted.
Anne Marie tries to stir her films to be more than the main theme suggests.

At times her visual poetry and eye for composition are the best in photography and they have traded the 24 frames per second for a single muted image with a strong expressiveness. But then again there makes them look prefer a series of. There are – how could it be otherwise – playful references in to film and the Visual Arts.
