The apartment is situated in a lovely area out of the city centre of Amsterdam. The pictures (although accurate) don't quite show the true beauty of the apartment. I became quite obsessed with the clever space saving kitchen and 20th century furniture.
The space is perfectly placed to explore more of the local culture of Amsterdam, whilst avoiding the crowded tourist areas. The toiletries and bottle of welcome fizz were lovely unexpected extras.
Lidy is punctual host, but accommodated our late arrival, due to unusual delays in transport and helped us find a late restuarant that evening. The house guidebook highlights local places to eat and there is a lovely restaurant called De Kas, which is less than 5 mins walk situated in a lovely park area.
