This is a terrific apartment in a great location! My wife and I went there for 3 day getaway. Debbie was the absolute perfect host and had everything covered for us including transfers, restaurants, museums and biking! The apt. is just outside the very touristy center for those who want to avoid the dense crowds. It was an easy train trip to get there from Schipol. The view of the Amstel River from the living room is spectacular both day and night and we loved having access to the private back balcony as well. The apt. was very cozy, clean and secure. We felt very at home there. There are several very good local restaurants and bakeries in the neighborhood that are easy to walk or bike to. We kind of fell in love with Amsterdam when we were there and would definitely stay here again.
