Peter was very accommodating, and friendly.
The flat was exactly as described, very bright. it is a bit out of town but the water-bus is a great way to travel in and the buses run into the evening with the bus stop close-by. With a roof terrace this lovely, get in the beers and stay home! I assumed it was shared use, but no, you get a terrace as big as the flat! The supermarket is very convenient and there's few local cafe's.
Our recommendation would be hire a bike! Read the reviews, book online, get the water-bus or regular bus into town then use the bike to go pretty much everywhere! It is such fun to ride from the apartment along the canal side into town. You see so much and feel a sense of freedom.
Other recommendations - get a good map and one with bus/train and metro routes. The ticket system is a little confusing but ideally down-load the app and sort it out using your smart phone. The water-bus is included on the tickets, just be aware of the zones. Everyone speaks English so don't be afraid to ask. The people are very friendly.
Oh and finally ask Peter to book you some good weather! It worked for us!
