Laurence's place was located in a quiet residential area and was very nice to live. There are 3 supermarkets nearby and one of them opens in 24 hours. The apartment can be easily reached from the Amsterdam Central Station with bus No. 21 and it takes approximately 15 mins costing 2 euro for a return trip. If you would like to walk, 30mins can reach the Amsterdam Central Station passing by all the landmarks.
We met Laurence and her husband upon our arrival to the apartment and they was so nice. Laurence immediate introduced everything we need about Amsterdam to us with a lot of maps and leaflets. She even made a large printed map by Google Map herself showing everything around the street. The place was just perfect to stay with everything we would need. We stayed in the place for 3 nights and we cooked many times to save money. The kitchen was just perfect with everything and I missed it a lot now. The only drawbacks was the stairs since we had heavy luggage, but Laurence was very helpful to help us moving the luggage and it was highly appreciated.
We had our departing flight at 10pm and Laurence allowed us to store our luggage at her place. This almost saved 20 euros for us from the Central Station Baggage Storage.
Overall, we are very satisfied with our stay in Laurence's place and we would love to stay in her place again. It is highly recommended
