A little out of the way by map, but once you get the hang of the Metro, an easy fit. The walk to the punt is doable, but we only did it the one time. 15 minutes to the central station by bus, see as much of the inner city as you can, then 15 minutes home to a quiet neighborhood. Welcome snacks of GREAT bread, cheese, milk, fruit and wine was a very nice 4 star touch that was unexpected but very appreciated! Coffee is fantastic, as in all of Europe. Nienke can't do enough for you, and that was VERY appreciated as well, especially in arranging the taxi to the airport. We were only there for two nights, but the next trip to will entail a 5 nighter!
