Christine's studio was perfect for our time in Amsterdam. It is very well located and the neighborhood is nice and comfortable. We felt very safe and although the Metro is VERY close, we only used it to go to and from Schiphol airport. The rest of the time we walked to the places we wanted to visit (the museum district, the Concertgebau, the art markets and restaurants). The bed was comfortable and the kitchen area was well equipped. Christine even gave us a bottle of wine. She also helped carry our suitcases upstairs. We would be happy to stay there again!
