Nestled in the heart of Rotterdam, this contemporary pad is an ideal base whether you’re in the city for business or leisure. Sure, you’ll need to climb two sets of steep, narrow stairs to reach the apartment, but you’ll see the effort was worth it as soon as you step through the door. We love the private balcony – just the spot for morning coffee before a day of sightseeing. Locally, walk to the Euromast for the best views the city has to offer or hop on a water taxi to check out the cube houses and Market Hall, which is sure to get your tastebuds tingling.

Home truths:
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb steep, narrow stairs to reach the entrance of the home
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance
*There's no air conditioning here, but fans are provided for guests' comfort.
*The en-suite is open to the bedroom (shower and basin), so privacy is limited but the toilet is in the corridor, in a separate room with a door next to the bedroom so your will have full toilet privacy
*Please respect quiet hours and keep noise to a minimum after 11pm
