Arne provided excellent directions on how to get to his apartment, so it was extremely easy getting there from the airport. There was a bus stop right outside of his building, which would take you to the center of the city. However, in the city there were other ways to get around (bus/metro/tram), so a map of the public transportation would be handy to have. The apartment isn't close to the city, so always purchase a transit ticket. Arne provided us with keys, so we could come and go as we pleased. When we had questions about the apartment he answered them all quickly, and provided assistance when necessary. The room/apartment was clean and we had access to the kitchen and laundry which was helpful. Overall, I would recommend staying at Arne's if you are looking for a place to stay while exploring Amsterdam.
