Maaike has a lovely home in the Westerpark section of Amsterdam. We were a family of 4 and had plenty of room to spread out. It was very convenient having 2 bathrooms and a nice living room and dining area for hanging out together. There are also 2 beautiful terraces, though we had rain everyday so didn't wind up using them. This is a nice location if you want to live in a real neighborhood and be a bit removed from the crowded tourist areas. You can still walk most places of interest, though. Westerpark is good for a stroll, and Maaike provides very good recommendations for local restaurants if you don't want to journey into the center each night for dinner. Jordaan is also very convenient for restaurants without venturing too far if you are tired from walking around museums all day. The local tram was also convenient, but if you are a family of 3 or 4 people, taking Uber could be more economical. After the first two mornings of taking the tram to the Museumplein, we realized we could save money by using Uber anytime we weren't planning to walk. I highly recommend Maaike's place. It is clean, comfortable, and convenient, and Maaike is very helpful and communicative.
