What a great place and location! We were able to walk everywhere from Maika's stylish and comfortable apartment. There are so many nearby places for espresso, beer, shopping, pastries, etc. Simply cannot imagine a better location to stay. The flat is very quiet and being on the second floor gives you a nice view of all the activity outside. While it was a bit too chilly for us to ever venture onto the large deck, it looks like a great spot to relax with a bottle of wine in the evening. Look forward to returning to Amsterdam (we've been many times) and staying here again!
