    I stayed for 3 nights with my 2 girls in december 2011, we had a lovely welcome. My little girl, 9, did vomit in the car on our way to the B&B and dirtied her coat, which the landlady straight away washed and dried for me.....They gave plenty information where to go in Amsterdam in the neighbourhood, and overed any help whatever would be the reason.........I had a nice agreement with the landlady so my son, who works in Amsterdam and whom I hardly see during the year, could come over at night time for a very reasonable price. We felt absolutely at home, nice and warm and especially cosy. having dinner at the b&B was nice and felt like home. The house is absolutely quiet no noise at all from other people in the building. We definitely come back next time for a stay in Amsterdam.!!thanks again for the lovely stay..............

    We were 5 ladies on a short break to Amsterdam and the apartments were outstanding. The location was fantastic, minutes walk from the station and we were ready to start our break. Christa and Yvon were extremely helpful and the apartments were well equipped, comfortable and very attractive with lovely views. The noise was not a problem . The only downside was a smell of smoke, despite the apartments being definitely non-smoking.

    Innkeeper Response
    Dear ladies! Thank you very much for the nice review! We are glad you liked the apartments and enjoyed your little break in Amsterdam! We do indeed have a strict non smoking policy, also in the cafe down stairs. It seems the ventilation system was not working and some staff was smoking secretly inside and was noticable on the first floor apartment. We solved this problem and placed a new ventilation system so this can not happen again during your next stay with us!! We are looking forward to seeying you again at la vie en rose!!! All the best Christa and Yvon

    Yvon opened the door and i looked behind her at the almost vertical stairs to our apt on the second floor. She said "do you need help with your bags" and she hoisted our 50 pound bag to the landing on the second floor returned and did the same with our other bag. We followed her to the second floor apt. I counted 35 stairs. She opened the door to one of the most charming places we've every stayed. The spacious living room with wonderful window seat allowed us to watch the bustle of busy Amsterdam. The spacious bedroom and large walk in shower were just what we needed. The location is convenient to Amsterdam tourist activities, shopping and restaurants. Christa and Yvon could not have been more helpful and were terrific landlords.

    Innkeeper Response
    Dear Nancy and Jim, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and your apartment in Amsterdam. We certainly enjoyed having you as guests and we hope to see you back in Amsterdam! All the best: Christa and Yvon

    The apartment is bright, nicely furnished, reasonably equipped and very clean. It is also very central and a wonderfully short walk to the canals and other nice spots in Amsterdam. Christa checked us in and was quite welcoming and nice. A few things would have been nice to know, however. First, the apartment is directly above a pot cafe and the entry is right next to a youth hostel, whose residents seem to sit out in front and smoke pot all day and night. The result is that if you have the windows open, you will have a continuous smell of pot smoke. In addition, there is a very steep set of stairs leading either one or two floors to the apartment. Not recommended for anyone with knee problems or vertigo . . . All that said, we enjoyed the apartment very much. An internet connection would have been a welcome addition for the price.

    Innkeeper Response
    Dear guests, we are very glad you enjoyed your stay!! We would like to say that we do have à free internet connection available throughout the building. This is explained in the information booklet and the aquired access code. I am sorry you didnt ask us so we could show you;) anyway, the cafe on the ground floor is not a pot cafe but a Typical brown breakfast and lunch cafe. We own the building so we know they are not allowed to even smoke inside. During high season visitors of amsterdam do sit outside at the youth hostel Next door and if your windows are open you can smell the pot, only on the front, not on the alley side. in the middle of the center you can expect these things, especially when visitors come to Amsterdam for this reason and freedom. Gladly this is occassionally because we live in the same building and there. are windows to open all around. We hope to see you back in Amsterdam and thank you very much for staying!!!
