We loved staying in Romy’s apartment in Amsterdam’s Baarsjes neighborhood! The cosy, well-appointed 2-bedroom apartment was perfect for our family’s needs. It was well equipped, filled with natural light, and had a nice little balcony out back overlooking a garden. Romy was very easy to communicate with, and was very kind to leave us some wine and other treats for our arrival. The neighbourhood is located outside the touristy and congested Centraal district, but still bustling with the activity of local residents going about their day. There are loads of coffee shops and restaurants, as well as a grocery store and other shops just steps away. We recommend Fort Negen and Stach for morning coffee and croissants, and the restaurant Fred for drinks and dinner on the Admiralengracht. The apartment is also a 5 minute walk from Erasmus park and Rembrandt park, which are both very nice for walking. The location is also very convenient for accessing both the downtown area (15 minutes by tram or bus) and the motorway (if arriving by car, as we did, it takes 5 minutes). We also had no problem finding parking on the street right in front of the apartment. We would happily stay in Romy’s apartment again the next time we are in Amsterdam!
