This apartment was in the perfect location for us--on a quiet, residential street yet just a few blocks from shopping, restaurants, museums, Vondelpark, and de Pijp. We found a delicious, gezellig (cozy) vegetarian restaurant nearby (de Waaghdals). Our hosts were so sweet and made us very comfortable. They were also very accommodating to our two young kids (ages 5 & 3), offering us a little stool for the bathroom sink, blocks to play with, and even a ride to the train when there was heavy rain.
