I had a lovely time in Amsterdam, before my visit Virginia sent me very detailed instructions on how to get to the flat i was staying at.

The listings and descriptions of the accommodation were accurate and while i was staying with Virginia and her husband they allowed me to use a old bike to get around Amsterdam which is a extra that is not in the description, maybe it can be added as to rent a bike is normally a extra cost.

The neighborhood is nice and present, there is a public square with water fountains only 200 meters from the flat. A larger than normal public transport stop where you can get on the trams or buses, and the central train station (hub) is just a 10 minute bus round or 20 minutes walk from the flat.

On the evening i arrived at the flat Virgina's Husband took me for a little tour of some of the near by features, such as a beach where people are able to take there dogs and a free ferry service that crosses the near by river to Amsterdam, Veer NDSM Werf, a part of Amsterdam you may not normally see.

I'm not a smoker but so while i was staying Virginia and her husband would always go outside of the flat when they wanted to smoke which was very kind of them since it is their flat after all and I'm just a guess.

I've had a really enjoyable visit to Amsterdam and I would say it was made better by staying in this wonderful flat in a central location. Virginia was able to advise on how to get to places in Amsterdam and was very knowledgeable about the city.
