The apartment is modern and well stocked with everything you could need for a stay in Amsterdam. It’s centrally located but away from the touristy areas giving one a glimpse of daily city life. The 14 tram is a half block from the apartment and gets you to to the center within 10-12 minutes. Many cafes (Joost, Drovers Dog, Javastreet) and grocery stores are also a short walk away.

Shireen was an exceptional host and made me feel welcome on my first visit to Europe. She even let me tag along for a couple nights with her friends which exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend.
