Catta was a great host, and the apartment was exactly as described. She even changed the configuration of the apartment to accommodate one adult, putting the master bedroom on the same floor as the bathroom. The location is perfect, right along a quintessential Amsterdam canal bridge. The house is spread out over several floors--so be prepared to travel a bit for cooking and using the bathroom. Stairs are typical of a canal house--narrow and steep--as is noted in the description. It's part of the house's charm.
