Very nice and peaceful apartment located in a residential neighborhood. Helen made us feel very comfortable and offered advice on how to reach some of the places we wanted to visit. We also found very convenient to have two bicycles available to bike to the city center in just a few minutes. Amsterdam is definitely a city where we would choose bike over car! Apartment was very well kept and charming, bedding was very comfortable which is important to us, bathroom is beautiful and very practical...all we needed for a 3 day stay but we could have stayed much longer:) One thing to note, not sure it is described on the website: there is a flight of stairs to access the apartment making it accessible only to people who can walk up and down, no problem for us but might be noted if you have small children or people whose mobility is limited. We will go back if we return to Amsterdam, thank you Helen!
