This apartment did all we needed and more. I loved that it was just around the corner from the Anne Frank house. When we went on a tour it was similar to this apartment- steep stairs, spiral stairs. It feels like you have gone back in history with the bell tower, the same one Anne heard while she was in hiding. The apartment was a great size for my family of 4. It was a little daunting when we arrived and saw the staircase but it's doable and gets easier as you stay. Jordaan is a great place to explore. This was our first time in Amsterdam and I feel like we hit the jackbox the the location.
