Truly a special place! Lots of great light, with a gorgeous view of the Prinsengracht canal. Perfect for art-inclined people looking for a different kind of experience in Amsterdam. The apartment sits at the top of the building, and has a modern feel with a few rustic features. (Original mortise and tenon beams!) There are some creative layout features, like an open bathroom with a shower that you will need to squeegee off, but this shouldn't deter you.
The owner Carel (pronounced "Karl") is an artist himself and can provide great suggestions on where to go. There could not be a better location for people interested in art. His suggestions were very helpful.
We visited for a blissful week in May, and like in any warmer month the canals were a little noisy with party boats, but otherwise we had zero complaints. Truly a great place.
