Juliette made us very welcome in her lovely flat in a quiet area of Amsterdam. The flat has a quiet back garden to relax in after a hectic day sightseeing and there is even a friendly cat to feed and look after. There was start off breakfast in the fridge and fresh flowers and even a bottle of wine. The flat is spacious and comfortable with an enormous bathroom containing the biggest bath I have ever seen. The situation is slightly outside the main Amsterdam centre but the trams are frequent and easy to use and about a 20 minute ride into the town centre. The tram conductors are very helpful in informing tourists where to get off the tram but after a day or so you become quite proficient at finding your way around without help. Juliette was happy to provide any help when we arrived about places to visit and tram directions ( the tram stop is approx 100 yards from the flat).
Amsterdam is a great place for a long weekend visit. The lovely quirky architecture, canals, cafes and museums, make it an ideal place as there is something great to do in all weathers.
I would highly recommend both Amsterdam and Juliette's apartment
