This location is absolutely excellent. You can walk anywhere including the metro stations. We used the metro stations frequently and traveled all over the city with ease. Karin helped us out greatly with understanding the different parts of the city and the special aspects of each area. There are bikes available that we unfortunately didn't utilize but are definitely a good way to see the city if you would like to use them. I absolutely recommend this airbnb to anyone who wants to see Amsterdam and stay in the heart of the city.
