The place was as advertised. It is small, but well located. Perfect for solo travellers or a couple. The street outside is lively throughout the day, so the front room can catch some of the noise outside, but I guess that is part of the charm. Eric was very helpful and accommodating for the check-in. He provided some tips to move around the city and was always responsive through email. You can walk from the Amsterdam Central and walk anywhere from here. Even better, you can bike everywhere in the city from here. If you are looking for a bicycle to rent, go to Frédéric's, a couple of short blocks towards the Centre.
