If you want to experience living right in the heart of Amsterdam near one of the canals, this is the place for you! It was exactly as pictured. Plus, it had all the amenities you would typically get in a hotel room...iron & ironing board, hair dryer, TV with cable and a small fridge. What it has that you wouldn't get in a hotel room is a small laundry machine that allowed me to pack half the amount of clothes I would normally bring for a 9 day stay. Also, having the large sliding doors that closed off the bedroom area from the living room will give you that additional level of privacy if needed. Finally, they were able to provide 2 sets of keys which was important to us. And the shower had good water pressure and had plenty of hot water.
