Located next to a canal away from the noise and bustle of downtown Amsterdam, but about a 5 minute walk to the subway system. The subways of Amsterdam are amazing, cheap and easy to navigate, and the ride to downtown was about 10 minutes. Very quiet and comfortable, great internet, nice walking/jogging path along the canal. Downtown Amsterdam hotels can get real noisy. This apartment was a great quiet option only 15 minutes walk and ride away.
