Jacqueline's home is truly lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Amsterdam is such a beautiful, vibrant city - we loved every minute of it.
Their neighborhood is really lovely and we found some great restaurants and cafes in walking distance. There's a big grocery store right at the end of the street which came in so handy. It's a bit outside of the heart of the city center so, although we could walk to a few of our destinations, we used the tram system to get around most days. It was quite easy - and because we were traveling in prime tourist season, it was nice to get away from the crowds at the end of the day, frankly.
I know Jacqueline mentions this in her description, but the stairs are a bit of an adjustment. They are narrow & steep which can make carrying luggage a bit tricky. It's par for the course in these gorgeous homes and worth it once you get to the top!
