Convenient, spacious and charming apartment within an 8 min drive of Amsterdam Central Station. Uniquely, there is a nice outdoor private (for this apartment only) play space for children with a trampoline and children's house, while the apartment had many toys as well - AND a park right across. A blessing when traveling with tots! The host was very responsive, and as she was traveling when we arrived, we were welcomed in by her helpful mom. There is a parking ramp within a 2 min walk that always had plenty of parking space as well. Driving in and out of the area was easy as this is just outside the canal ring, with wider roads and far less traffic. Restaurants, shops, etc within easy walking distance as well. Great place to stay, esp. with kids and if you intend to drive outside the city center.
