Ellen’s apartment is really lovely. It has tiny, charming balconies on both sides, huge windows, and lots of light. These windows let in a cooling breeze in summer, but seal tightly at night.
The area is mostly residential, and quiet in the evenings.
It is a tastefully renovated historic building, with good kitchen and bathroom, and lovely outlooks. The apartment is spacious for two people, and luxurious for one.
The apartment is very close to the metro (make sure you exit in the correct direction to keep the walk very short), there’re nearby cafes, supermarkets, and bars, AND the river is at the end of the street! Just perfect for summer evening strolls.
Note: as with most historic Amsterdam apartments, there are tight stairs to navigate.
This is one of the nicest airbnb apartments i’ve stayed in over the years. Ellen is very welcoming and helpful.
