Guest Reviews
- Fabio Pio (10/5): Position is amazing and very close to public transport. The room is very comfortable for four people, bright and with a -
- The (10/5): - Diane et Roel ont été très gentils et bienveillants. L’appartement était génial, bien situé et très confortable. Néant.
- Halil (10/5): - İki odalı, iki odada da büyük yatak var ama arka odada pencere yok. (Bizim için çok önemli değildi) Evin dizaynı ve eşyalar çok iyi, her şey düşünülmüş. Banyo yeterli ve temiz. Evin hemen önünde, kanalın üstünde balkonun olması çok keyifli. Evin sokağı çok sakin ve hiç gürültü yok. 5 dakika yürüme mesafesinde tren istasyonu var. Evin önünde arabanız için ücretsiz park alanı mevcut. Ev sahipleri çok ilgili ve cana yakınlar.
- kristof (10/5): Top locatie als je niet gebonden bent aan het nachtleven in A’dam - De locatie buiten de stad maar snel in de binnenstad met tram 26 en parking naast de accomodatie.
- Dominik (10/5): We were classy with a little ADE spice >.> - We liked literary everything ^-^
- Rhys (7/5): -
- Martin (4/5): Empfang war nett, aber die Wohnung hätte eine Grundreinigung benötigt. - Wir wurden umgehend vom Nachbarn begrüßt, der uns auch den Schlüssel übergab und uns die Wohnung zeigte. Die Lage war wie beschrieben. Die Sauberkeit in der Wohnung war leider nicht gut. Es hingen Spinnweben und Spinnfäden überall herum. Das Küchenzubehör (Teekanne, Toaster) waren derart verschmutz, dass es nicht zu gebrauchen war. Der Fernseher war aufgrund eines gebrochenen HDMI-Kabelsteckers nicht funktionsfähig.
- Cynthia (10/5): Au top !!! Merci Diane - Diane a été une hôte incroyable: généreuse, accueillante et très souriante. Elle nous a gâté avec un cadeau à l'arrivée et un cadeau de départ. De plus, elle nous a fait de nombreuses recommandations. L'appartement est cosy, propre et très bien chauffé malgré le froid à l'extérieur. Tout est bien équipé et le logement est très proche de la station de métro qui mène en moins de 20 minutes à la gare d'Amsterdam. Seul bémol : la seconde chambre n'a pas de fenêtre.
- PIERRE ETIENNE (10/5): Super séjour - Très bon accueil,belle vue dans un cadre dépaysement,supermarché tres proche ,15 min de la gare centrale en tram,parking privé
- Simona (10/5): Krásný byt s přímým výhledem na kanál. - Příjemný byt, krásné místo i okolí, pěkné vybavení, čisto a útulno. Dianne je velmi milá a vstřícná hostitelka. Super ubytování. Nám se líbilo vše. Někomu může ale vadit že druhá ložnice nemá okno a je přístupná přes první ložnici a kuchyni. Stejně tak z druhé ložnice se do koupelny přes první ložnici.
- Heidi (9/5): - Die Unterkunft liegt in einer ruhigen und angenehmen Lage, alles war mit der Tram sehr gut zu erreichen.
Wir hatten alles was wir brauchen, sogar ein kleiner Supermarkt gab es um die Ecke. Die Vermieter haben sich sehr gekümmert und wir kommen auf alle Fälle wieder!
- Merlin (10/5): - Our stay at Green Tunnel in Amsterdam was truly unforgettable!
From the moment we arrived, Roel and Dianne made us feel incredibly welcome with their genuine hospitality and kindness.
Traveling with children can sometimes be challenging, but their attentiveness and warmth made the experience effortless and enjoyable for our whole family.
The location itself is simply stunning. The house is beautifully maintained, combining charming aesthetics with modern comfort.
Green Tunnel offers such a peaceful and inviting atmosphere, the perfect retreat after a busy day exploring the vibrant city. Roel and Dianne were always available to offer helpful local tips, making our visit even more special.
We wholeheartedly recommend Green Tunnel to anyone visiting Amsterdam, especially families. It was a perfect home away from home, and we hope to return soon!
- Stefanie (10/5): - Ruhige, idyllidche Lage am Wasser, gute Verkehrsanbindung, nette Gastgeber Alles okay
- Caroli (10/5): Spotless and very comfortable b&b, highly recommended! - We had a wonderful stay at this spotless and comfortable B&B. The location is beautiful — peaceful and quiet, yet the city is within easy reach. Having our own parking space was very convenient, and being able to swim right in front of the property was a real treat. The hosts were incredibly warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. Highly recommended! No remarks whatsoever
- Yuk (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (9/5): A great base for exploring Amsterdam. - Thank you for accommodating our arrival time. Lovely location and nice apartment. Great outdoor seating.
- Iryna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Le (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michelle (10/5): Great location with kind and helpful hosts - Beautiful area and view Everything was great
- Karl (10/5): Best hosts ever! Location is excellent. Beautiful place and quiet. - Raul and Diane are fantastic hosts. The best!!!! They care of us well. The place is lovely. They even have surprises for us. None
- W (9/5): owner is very friendly and helpful. - riverside view
- Lara (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing Hosts which made our stay so pleasant and enjoyable.
- Sandell (9/5): Wonderful location, fabulous hosts and cosy apartment. -
- Liad (10/5): Exceptional - Everything!! Nothing at all
- Ksenija (9/5): Superb -
- Michelle (9/5): Superb - We had an excellent stay and particularly enjoyed the ease with which we could get into the centre. The location was architecturally very interesting and well worth exploring. Dianne was really welcoming and friendly and we appreciated her recommendations for local restaurants. Overall, the accommodation was ideal for us and we'd love to go back!
- R (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carolyn (10/5): A lovely apartment, well located with a great host. - The apartment was well equipped and very nicely decorated. Right on the canal with a lovely view. Nice outdoor area, although it was a little cool and rainy for us to enjoy. We found the location very good -- the tram stop was not even five minutes away and the tram, which runs frequently, took us right to the Central Station. It was a real bonus to have a parking spot at the house. Amenities are within walking distance and we loved the farmer's market Saturday morning. Dianne was warm, friendly and very helpful There is no separate common area, like a living room. The dining area is in the main bedroom. But for a 3 day visit, this was not a significant drawback.
- Claudia (4/5): Overall, we were all dissapointed and felt cheated. - The owner Diane was very nice and accommodating. We booked this place on the belief that it was a 2 bedroom apartment, as is advertised- it is not. The entrance leads you right into the first room, where you find the bed and dinning room/living room (?) The actual bedroom is in the back with no windows and a sofa bed. The biggest problem is privacy, the people in the back room need to cross over through the "main bedroom" to access the bathroom. In the end our friend ended staying somewhere else because of privacy issues. I wouldn't even bother renting this "apartment" as a couple because you can find a better price and location in the center of town. Yes, the view of the canal was nice, but the location is not very interesting, and again, for the price, it is just not worth it.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Laura (10/5): Lovely place - We had a wonderful stay at The Green Tunnel. Dianne and Roel were great hosts and we felt really wellcomed. The location is perfect, the tram station is just a few minutes walk away and it takes less than 15 min to the Central station. And after the busy city center, the peacefullness of the appartment, the canal and it's surroundings felt so calming. Highly recomended.
- Imogen (10/5): We loved staying at the Green Tunnel, it was beautifully tranquil and relaxing. We will be back! -
- Kirchoff (10/5): Enjoyed staying at the Green Tunnel. - The hosts were extremely inviting and upon arrival, took us on a quick tour of the local area and canal in their boat. They made sure that we were set and gave us privacy for most of our trip. The neighborhood is very safe, even late at night and feels suburban, while the tram is very close and runs every five minutes or so to Centraal Station. I liked that the bedroom window is literally inches from the canal, giving you the feeling of being right on the water. The value was good since we needed to sleep three people and hotels in the city generally only accommodate two.
- Rajesh (10/5): Exceptional - Serene and peaceful location
- Oppenheimer (10/5): Beautiful place on the river with an amazing host. - Amazing view of the river, and amazing host. Everything was perfect. Nice restaurants and a lovely market. We'll come back again for sure
- Katazina (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly owners, beautifull place, perfect view, clean apartaments ❤️ near is tram station to the center of Amsterdam. Everything was perfect❤️Thank you for the perfect weekend ❤️
- M. (10/5): Exceptional - Dianne was a lovely host! The apartment had a wonderful view of the channel in front and it was also very clean. The location was very close to the train station (15 minutes to Amsterdam central). Highly recommend!
- Parkin (10/5): Our Long weekend away - Dianne was very helpful with information and directions, which made our stay much easier. The location is lovely and easy to jump on the tram to get to. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Nothing.
- Marie (10/5): So glad we found De Groene Tunnel! - I spent many hours choosing a place to stay for our winter visit to see if the University of Amsterdam is a good match for my son. We couldn’t have had a better home away from home for our eight day stay! De Groene’s hosts went way beyond the ordinary to make us feel welcomed and comfortable, giving helpful advice and recommendations. The view from the main room’s windows is absolutely delightful, with swans and ducks sailing up from bed-view regularly. And we were very glad to stay in Ijburg, where we could get a feel for how regular folks live here, with fantastic food shopping just minutes away, a variety of restaurants and the tram to city center very accessible. We also very much enjoyed renting and riding bikes to a number of our destinations through beautiful Diemerpark a few steps away. This area is like a beautiful nature preserve connecting Ijburg to the edge of the city. Overall we give De Groene Tunnel the highest possible review~a real gem!
- Brent (8/5): Very good - There is a lot to like about staying at De Groene Tunnel, it worked well for us. Just about everything is 10 out of 10. The kitchenette. Not everyone likes to eat out 3 times a day. We had no intention of kooking a big meal but a bit more thought and care can make a big difference. It really felt like the kitchen was thrown together, whereas a lot of thought and care went into the rest of the apartment.
- Fernando (9/5): Superb - We had the green and the air of the nature, the peace and silence of the neighborhood, the comfort of the apartment, the proximity of the tram, the restaurants, the supermarket and the hospitality, kindness, and availability of the host family. Diane, Roel, Merijn and all the family, muchas gracias.
- Tim (10/5): Exceptional family stay! - We can’t recommend this fantastic apartment highly enough. Clean, comfortable, stylishly furnished. Situated in a relatively new suburb of Amsterdam, with excellent access to the city via tram to Central Station and only a short walk to a supermarket and some local restaurants. We even managed a bracing morning swim from the jetty! Dianne and her husband were exceptional hosts. We were warmly welcomed on our arrival and they were on hand to recommend restaurants and assist with travel plans. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
