My time in Amsterdam was made better because we had such a lovely, contemporary yet homely apartment to stay in. The living area is bright and spacious, very comfortable couches a plus. The location is ideal, on the tram line direct to Central Station and the stop is right outside the front door. The area is occupied by plenty of restaurants, bars and supermarkets.
Obviously as a penthouse apartment, it's up many steep flights but it's manageable for sure. Great apartment, lovely host and owner.
