We had a wonderful first visit to Amsterdam and this apartment was just as described and more. Nothing better than eating meals and relaxing while enjoying the daily activity on the streets below and the canal. Filled with interesting boats and people - especially during warm summer evenings. It was a very comfortable space for two people - well equipped and the owners added some extras. Maarten was very welcoming and readily available with recommendations when asked. The location is close to an array of restaurants, local market places, and a reasonable walk to many of the must-do sights in Amsterdam. Our stay could not have been any better!
