The place in the Jordaan Neighbourhoud is a perfect place to be. Jordaan is very calm but with nice boutiques, restaurants etc and a very close and enjoyable walk to everything you might want to visit (even a good walking distance to the central train station).
Location is one thing - the other thing is that I really felt home in the loft. The historic house is nicely renovated with style. The loft is also good to stay there as a couple for a few days as it is the entire floor of the house.
Noud is very nice and I am sure he will give many tips regarding the area if dont know the area yet :-) I felt very welcomed and can defenitely recommend to stay there!
