We sincerely loved our time at Simone's apartment. If I return to Amsterdam I will definitely stay here again. It is a lovely space and better than even the pictures suggest. For older or stair-resistant visitors you may want to note that the apartment is a few flights up. But so are most places to stay in Amsterdam. I didn't find it a problem at all! Simone herself was very responsive and a pleasure to meet. Wish we could have stayed longer.
