Great location just outside of AMS proper and Alicia (host) is very responsive. It's a short, free ferry ride to/from Central Station and when the weather is good it's a delight. It's a 5-10 minute walk to the apartment from the ferry. I recommend skipping the neighborhood market & taking the ferry into city center to get what you need at the numerous Albert Hein Markets, which are great. WiFi worked great, kitchen was awesome, it's a spacious apartment. One caveat: the entire island area is under development (new hotel being put in, plus apartments and office space), check with owner on status of site directly across from apartment (was nearly finished when I was there so may no longer be an issue). Workers show up early, which was no problem as I was up for work but it might be a hassle if you want to sleep in on weekdays :-). Host is very responsive and delivered extra towels and hair dryer when requested. Easy trip to/from Schiphol, you can skip the taxi but do be prepared for wheeling your luggage to apartment (easy/flat). If you are in town for business and need a private/quiet place to work (at least in the evenings) this apartment is a good choice.
