Cute place, with all your needs met. Tram and bus 2 blocks either direction. As well as a food market. Albert Heijn and a few restaurants. Mattress and pillows very comfortable, kitchen had all you needed to get by for a short stay. Very quiet at night. Children playing in the yard of the school by day. The people were very willing to help me when I was lost. I was able to explore all of Amsterdam from this apt, 20-30 minute bus or tram ride. A tad longer to central station downtown. The public transportation is excellent once you figure it out, never a long wait. Trams and buses are plentiful and on time. Thank you Amsterdam FOR A REAL GOOD TIME.
