The area is quiet and safe. The apartment has a beautiful view of the cannel and bell tower. It has a convenient location walkable to the central station, Dam Square, plenty of restaurants and eateries, etc. Nice supermarkets are 10 minutes walk away. It is not very close to Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum and many public transportations can take you there.
The room is clean and has a microwave and fridge. It doesn't have a kitchen sink and the washing machine doesn't work. Typical of old houses in Amsterdam, the stairway is very narrow and steep.
