The location of this house is wonderful if you like being away from the crowds but still close enough to be able to jump on a tram and get into the centre quickly. Jasper the neighbour was welcoming, generous and helpful suggesting brilliant alternative places to visit and eat. The park is lovely to walk through to the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum etc. and has loads of fab play areas and cafes. The neighbourhood is lovely, chilled and friendly with many quality restaurants, bistros and bars nearby. The house is a relaxed, "lived-in" family house but is also tasteful and stylish. It's worth being aware that the family bathroom is only accessible through the main bedroom and that the third (child's) bedroom is only accessible through the second (child's) bedroom. The third bedroom has a cot bed sized bed which was just about fine for our 10 year old. Jooske let us know about a possible mouse and maybe there were a few droppings on the floor occasionally but we didn't look too closely, never saw a mouse and it never bothered us. It certainly wouldn't put me off staying here. We had a great few days here, it's a lovely place to stay and Amsterdam was an interesting place to visit especially if you go off the beaten track a bit. Jooske and Jasper were very relaxed and welcoming hosts so a big thank you from our family.
