The apartment is functional, a bit further away from the center than described. I would plan on at least half an hour from door to downtown. It was a bit hard to find but Wilfred's instructions were helpful with regards to getting into the garage and the apartment. For those wondering, still no TV...which did not bother me at all because I did not go to Amsterdam to watch TV! But since one of the previous reviews mentioned it, I thought I would give an update. The couch pulls out into a bed, which you will have to make yourself with sheets and blankets in the closet. The apartment is a bit noisy, there is a locked door that leads to Wilfred's apartment and we could hear people going up and down the stairs, things dropping on the floor....
