If you want to enjoy as much as possible the chaos of the centrum, this may not be the best solution for you, since it’s quite far from it. But if you wanna find a very cute spot in northern Amsterdam, to enjoy a real dutch living experience, this is the place for you.
It’s very well connected to the centrum by train and busses too anyway, that are running until late night, so it could still be a good compromise.
The fried fish family business close to it (no smell) it’s a plus (you must try it).
Overall a good experience that made me explore northern Amsterdam for the first time.
