We arrived at Esters place a little early and the apartment was still being cleaned, we were able to drop our bags there then go for a walk around the market (1 minute walk), and have a beer at one of the hundreds of cafe/bar/restaurants within 5 minutes walk!!
The apartment was exceptional, with everything you need. Ester even had some beer and wine and food waiting for us to cook up for breakfast!
We also did a canal tour in Esters own boat, it's definitely the only way to see the canals of Amsterdam, again with food and drinks, well worth the money!
Overall my wife and I couldn't have stayed in a better place in our eyes, and we would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Amsterdam!
