I stayed in the apartment for 9 days - only me - and enjoyed everything. The big desk in the front room was a perfect place to work (or just write notes to friends) while having a view directly to the Prinsengracht and the boats and people moving by. The rear room was entirely private and quiet with the pocket doors closed and sleeping was easy. The kitchen is very small, but with restaurants all over and a grocery store around the corner for snacks and beer and wine, it was just right. I rented a bike and easily traveled all over the city. And Museumplein, with the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh and Stedlijk, is a 15 minute walk. And the entire stay was totally private. Great stay.
