Fair-trade Max Havelaar Cotton
The bath linen we use is made of Fair-trade cotton. Fair-trade cotton is
cotton that is produced durable without any insecticides in developing
countries. By paying an honest price to local farmers the environment of
those who are directly involved is improved step by step.
We always keep looking for new ways to contribute to a better environment.
Area
The apartment is located in the Nieuwmarkt area one of the oldest
districts of Amsterdam. Although bordering the spicy Red Light District,
it has a family-safe atmosphere with no red lights or related
businesses around.
The lovely Nieuwmarkt Square is picturesque with cafés and bars. De
Waag, a magnificent historic building stands out. It used to be St.
Anthony’s Gate, part of the Medieval Walls built in 1481 and
subsequently converted into a weighing house (Waag = weighing scales).
During the 16th century ships would dock here to unload and weight their
goods.
Today this is a beautiful and peaceful neighbourhood close to the
Central Station, The Rembrandt house, Chinatown and just ten minutes
away from Dam Square.
