Esther has a fabulous apartment in a great location, the beds are very comfortable, the neighborhood is beautiful and not too noisy, and the place is tastefully decorated. There are two flights of stairs to get to the apartment and they are rather steep but it's not a problem if you're even mildly in-shape. Also a walk to downtown would be a bit long but there is a tram station only about 400m north of the apartment that can take you anywhere. Walking to the Rijks Museum is not difficult from here.
