Great location for visiting the city. My wife and I prefer to walk everywhere, and Eva's place was within easy walking distance of all the venues we wanted to visit. It was lovely looking onto the canal every morning when we had our breakfast. The only down side was the 'noise from activities on the canal side' very, very, late at night. Note that the front entrance is on Oudezijds Achterburgwal. We had a very enjoyable few days and, although we didn't meet Eva personally, Matias was very welcoming when we arrived and helpful when we left. Eva was always very prompt in replying to our communications.
