My son and I stayed at the first floor apartment for 10days and waking up each day was glorious. The view from the window is beautiful in Autumn with the trees all golden and shommering in the sun and we spent slow mornings just having breakfast while looking out of the window watching the people get on with their lives. Location is perfect - less than 1 minute stroll to tram 19 (change to metro for Central) and bus 41 to Muiderpoort (for Rotterdam, Almere). Walk 5min to a neighbourhood strip mall where you can find supermarkets, bakery, Rituals and many others.
Host Jacqie is such a wonderful host and took time to go through the house with me. Kitchen is well equipped and there is a big oven /microwave which is vefy useful for reheating large slices of pizza. I also cooked a full dinner for us almost every night.
The studio apartment is perfect size for 2 of us, in a safe neighbourhood and we will remember our stay for a long time.
Just be aware that access to apartment is via outside spiral metal stairs that can get slippery if it's raining or cold when you hold on to the railings. I have a knee issue but I had no problems going up and down. However, I won't be able to manage hoing up/down with big suitcases but thankfully my son helped with that so everything was perfect!
Thank you Jacqie for making our stay comfortable and safe.
