We enjoyed our five-day stay at Maarten’s clean, quiet and convenient place. It had just the room we needed and a comfortable bed to fall into at that end of a full day of touring. Just a couple of steps down and you are in the apartment. A twenty- minute walk will take you to most major attractions (though the tram is nearby). You also are close to a couple of great restaurants and a grocery store. And after the hustle and bustle of sightseeing in Amsterdam, you come back to a calm street and can sit by the canal, watching boat after boat go by.
