This is a fantastic home base for a family to experience Amsterdam. The location is one of the best neighborhoods - clean, safe, and centrally located. There is a goregeous view of the canal.
The only thing to be aware of is the three flights of very steep and narrow stairs as are standard in dutch apartments. If you have health issues that make stairs difficult, a hotel with an elevator would be a better fit. For us, the stairs were fine and even kind of a fun exercise.
For a larger family like ours, this apartment was a great value considering how much space and privacy we got for the money. Hosts were helpful and communicated well. Highly recommend.
