I have been guest in the house of Marion and Curtis for a weekend in July - despite the warmth outside the apartment stays very comfortable and the option to sit outside on the terrace with a glass of wine overviewing the channel is very nice! You can easily travel into city Amsterdam with the tram or get a bike from your host. The apartment is very clean and cosy - equipped with everything you need! But make sure you get directions from your very nice hosts else you will difficulties to find your ways ... :-)
