Amsterdam; Our Airbnb Apartment

Amsterdam; Our Airbnb Apartment

• 23 May 2015

For our accomdation in Amsterdam we decided to go though Airbnb. This wasn't actually our original plan, but due to it being a bank holiday weekend many hotels were fully booked, so we turned to Airbnb and Claires apartment, and boy was it a good choice. It was our first time using Airbnb, and Claire made it so easy.

The apartment is located in the Jordaan neighbourhood, which is full of trendy bars, restaurants and cafes. It was the perfect location for us, we were within walking distance of all the tourist attracts, and there was a supermarket and pharmacy nearby. It was very easy to get to from Amsterdam central station and the tram stopped just down the road.

The apartment was just beautiful. The white washed floors are a bloggers dream, and the tall windows meant the apartment was nice and bright. I didn't get any photos of the bedroom, but it was also just as nice as the rest of the apartment. It had everything we needed, including wifi, and we were very sad to leave.

For the 3 of us it worked out great value and it was so nice to have that extra space that you don't get in hotels. I will be writing a post about using Airbnb for the first time, including some tips so do watch out for that.

Have you used Airbnb before? If so, what did you think?
