Location, location, location - if you want to be in the middle of the best areas of Amsterdam, slightly away from touristy areas but still in the thick of everything the city has to offer, Joop's place is perfectly located. The bed was great and there was a cupboard to hang clothes. The shower was good and the kitchen was handy. While we didn't cook anything, we did prepare salads and fruit so it was great to have a decent sized kitchen to do that separate to he rest of the apartment. The folding windows that lead (literally) into the street were great to grab the folding camping chairs that Joop provides and sit out on the ledge having dinner watching people go by and enjoying the canal view. Joop was a great communicator and provided very clear instructions on how to get in and pointed out where we could get anything we needed. There's a huge supermarket literally at the end of the street so we couldn't ask for a better location. Highly recommend.
