This is a great apartment, in a quiet neighborhood with good transportation to the center of the city & to the museum area. The apartment is about 4 blocks from Haarlemerstraat , a main shopping street that leads to the center of Amsterdam & is next to the Jordaan neighborhood. The apartment is about 7 steps below street level, which in Amsterdam is a plus since many apartments are up very steep steps. Arjan & Laura are super hosts who gave us excellent recommendations for restaurants.
