As described, a great location, only a few short blocks from the red light district and in the middle and walkable to everywhere in central Amsterdam, yet in a quiet side street. This place was in keeping either the style of the typical 17th century building in historic central Amsterdam; narrow building, with private narrow and fairly steep spiral type stairway. The apartment proper begins on the fourth floor with a living/dining area and a galley style kitchen. There is a futon that converts to a double bed in this room. The next floor contains the main bedroom and bathroom, and the staircase further leads up to a skylight hatch which is the access to a rooftop terrace. There is also a metro station about two blocks from e building.
Host was out of town so checkin and initial apartment walk through was handled by a close by neighbor.
