Tessa's place was really wonderful! She is so timely in her responses and her apartment is so stylish! It's about a 25 minute walk to the centre, but the tram is a couple blocks away and only takes about 5-10 minutes to get to most popular locations. It was so easy! We loved coming back every night to a clean and comfy bed, in a residential part of town. It was nice and quiet, which is what we wanted after long days of exploring the amazing city of Amsterdam!
