Absolutely great location, you're right I'm between two awesome parks, and the entire Amsterdam street is covered with shade. Especially great if you're with kids or dogs. Both parks offer a great playground where kids can spend all day in. I would not stay anywhere else next time we visit.
The apartment itself is spacious and cute as well. it does feel like an older building but we didn't mind. There is one flight of stairs to enter the building and then there's elevator inside. It did break one time during our stay and was fixed within a day.
It's also quite nice that there is a private laundry room with both washer and dryer, although it's located two floors up. It is well stocked and easy to use.
Be aware that because there are so many dogs in the area they bark quite often so if you're not comfortable surrounded by dog barks be careful.
