The apartment was excellent - it was really quiet, well furnished and had everything we needed for a short break.

Also, the location is excellent. The immediate area is really quiet - but it is only a 15 min walk from Centraal Station, and are excellent shops, bars and restaurants within a few minutes' walk. We did a lot of exploring, and the areas around the flat (Haarlemmerstraat, Brouwersgracht and Jordaan) were our strong favourites.

Bas was a great host, and clearly knows the area very well. He left us a long list of suggestions as to bars, cafes, restauarants etc (all within a few minutes of the flat) - and each one we tried was brilliant.
