The place is very quiet but still you are at the metro or tram in some minutes. Also you get into the inner city in 15 minutes at most. We even walked from the inner city once.
The part of town has it's own little center and it is perfect if you want not to be bothered by the buzz of Amsterdams inner city, yet stay close to it.
We always took breakfast in the colorful neighborhood before we went into the city.
Clean, punctual, everything as described. Wonderful stay.
