Amsterdam apartment finder

Hello,
We are staying in Amsterdam for 3 nights this fall and I was looking at housetrip.com for accommodations. Has anyone used this?
Or does anyone have a recommendation?

Thanks!
Sandy

Where ever you rent in Amsterdam ensure they comply with the new regulations.

House trip is like AirB&B.

Thanks! Hmmm, after looking into it further, housetrip doesn't seem very favorable for travelers. Think I'll keep looking.

Haven't used them - but we rented this fantastic apartment in March - ordinarily they don't do 3 nights bookings unless there is a gap in the calendar -- you might get lucky and it's a great apartment in a great location.

Thanks, Elizabeth. Well, I emailed them, just in case. : )
And we're 5 adults. So I'm not even sure if their apt. will accommodate us but we'll see. (Actually you probably DO know.)
I'm looking for a place in Amsterdam for 5 and in Rome for 3 and I'm having trouble getting responses.

Probably not appropriate - 1 queen size bedroom and one bedroom with trundle beds (although the living room might have a sofa bed?)

Guess what - he's already responded. One week minimum and 4 people maximum. And they're booked through October anyway. Oh well!

There are few places listed on the official website for tourism of the city
http://www.iamsterdam.com/en-GB/expe.../where-to-stay
Personally I am surprised that there is not more. Maybe due to the crack down?
However if they do not list anything suitable then write them an email. They should know about where to look for.
