  Liked least: Requiring extra money for our children
  a. The guest made the booking for 2 people a few months before his arrival. About 2 months before arrival he asked if his two adult daughters could join them for five nights. We told him explicitly that the apartment has only one bedroom, that there is an additional charge for an extra guest (and in this case at a lower price than it is mentioned on the website) We have also offered him another place in town. He wanted to stay in this apartment and agreed to the additional amount of 35 euro a person . We even offered an extra bed for one of his daughters so they would not have sleep together in one bed. During the check in he saw the situation and didn't showed any dissatisfaction what so ever.
  b. The guest made the booking through Flipkey. We are not aware of any penalty for canceling. For our part, we never have asked for a penalty.
  c. The complaint about mosquitoes during the summer in Amsterdam on the canal area or street noise (especially during the World Cup) has nothing to do with the apartment, but with the situation at that time. The Hazenstraat is absolutely not a busy noisy street and the mosquitoes are not specific to this apartment. If you want to avoid street noise or don't want open windows, you should to go to a hotel near the highway and not in the old center of Amsterdam.
  d. Out of kindness, we suggested that the launderette on the corner of the street the same day washes and dries: because there is no dryer in the apartment (which was mentioned on the site).
  The apartment was cleaned and the towels were changed during their stay. We do not want slander, but this family was not exactly clean, and they have "redecorated" the whole apartment by moving furniture (including the TV from its stand on a high table). Our apartment is known as spotless clean, but not durin their stay.
  e. It seems that this guest is performing a personal vendetta because if you really want, you can criticize the hotel room in the upscale "Pulitzer" too (and we ask ourselves: what else do you want from an iron?). We understand that someone might be disappointed, but from disappointment to "do not go there" is a personal retribution (the fact that their daughters didn't stay for free), and we find it completely unjustified. Until now we only had very positive comments from our guests. It can not be that the apartment is so bad as reviewed and that the previous guests never noticed it?
  Therefore we ask our future guests to neglact this action revenge and give us the ability to continue hosting grateful and happy people as we always did
  Delightful to be met with keys, information, wine, fruit, wine and chocolates by the owner. The area of Jordaan is very central, lively and full of Art galleries and excellent restaurants. A walk along beautiful canals to all the major Museums and Galleries.
  The apartment lacks nothing we could have needed. Good supermarkets, shops and patisseries for breakfast around every corner. The refurbished Rijksmuseum is unmissable. The apartment is highly recommended.
