First of all, Noa is a great host. Before we arrived, she provided detail direction to her place and she answered all my questions in a timely fashion. When we got there, we got a warm welcome from her friend, who showed us the apartment. Noa left a detail notebook on everything we need to know, including the surrounding restaurant recommendations. Knowing we are from the US, she even left a couple US-europe travel adaptors!

The apartment looks the same as in the pictures. It is clean, spacious and well organized. The bonus roof terrace is great for taking some private outdoor moment in a busy city. Having a terrace means the apartment is on the top floor, so expect to walk 4 flights of stairs.

The tram station is within 10 minutes walk and it's less than 20 minutes ride to the Centraal station. There is a supermarket next to the tram station, so it is very convenient to get all the essentials. Also, there are many restaurants and cafes nearby. I highly recommend De Hallen, we had one of our best meals here in our 2-week Europe trip!
