A wonderful location in the city, close to lovely places to eat, shop and walk through the pretty tree canopy covered walk way located on Amsterdam. Maria's place is very modern, comfortable, and nicely decorated with all of the nice touches and comforts of being at home. The bonus is the lovely outdoor patio adjacent to the living room. The apartment was my favorite because of the amazing views of the city due to the large glass windows on both sides of the apartment. Also, it is very close to an XOXO (aka mini mart) and to a pharmacy, two things that are important for American travelers. I will stay there in the future again!
