This was even more convenient than we could have imagined. If you can't find something good to eat near here, you are just not hungry. The Pancake Club (you have to try it) is only a block away, the bus stop for bus 397 to/from the airport is a block away, the museums are only a little further. The balcony was a nice way to get some fresh air, the place was sparkling clean, and Simon was so very helpful. Be mindful, however, that this is Amsterdam, which means some rather steep steps (51 to be exact). It was no bother to us, but you'll be hard-pressed to find a place with an elevator or at street level. Thank you, Simon! Hope to be back soon!
