We had a really great time at Ellen's. She is a very kind and helpful host. The room is located a bit outside the center but in a very quiet area, easily reachable by ferry and bus (the bus stop is 10 minutes walk from the apartment) or by metro and bus (the stop is very close to the house). Ellen offers useful cards too for traveling by public transport in the city and surroundings. She provides also a map with some “hot spots” around the city and papers with suggestion for trips near Amsterdam.
The room is clean and supplied with fridge, microwave… the two nearby supermarkets are very convenient.
We highly recommend it!
