Indra’s house is so homely and inviting, including the cats (They’re incredibly friendly!). It is in a lovely quiet suburb and very easy to get to central Amsterdam.
We walked through the park and made use of the free ferry across the river to central each day and returned by Uber taxi, although the train and bus route looks very easy to navigate. One day we walked to NDSM in Amsterdam Noord which is a great creative quarter and also has a free ferry link across to central.
We were only in Amsterdam for a weekend and literally used the house to sleep and shower but there are supermarkets nearby for supplies. Plenty of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. We walked into Central via Bunk (quirky hotel in a big old church) for brunch. Highly recommend!
All in all we had a lovely stay and felt very much at home. Would highly recommend.
