We had a wonderful stay in Amsterdam and were delighted to find that we had picked a really great neighbourhood. Location is excellent for anyone wishing to be within walking distance of most galleries, the park and great shopping streets. Maree's home is lovely - light, airy, well appointed and comfortable (good shower too!). The area is suprisingly quiet at night time and early morning, so we all slept really well. We used Maree's recommendation list and tried out the local cafes and restaurants, which were great, very local and not touristy. We would definately recommend this property and would stay here again.
