Ruben's place is exactly what you are looking for if you are visiting Amsterdam and want to be near shops and attractions. The place is located on a not-so-busy street and within walking distance from a street market and tram stage. The room was really clean, modern, and had everything we needed. It also had plenty of natural light coming through the windows. Communication with the host is excellent and we were given good directions. We will be staying here again if we visit Amsterdam in the future. Highly recommend Ruben's place.
