Petra was a terrific host. She was informative, communicative and helpful from the time of booking until our departure, even being generous enough to help with washing. Such service! This light and airy flat is indeed on the top floor with amazingly steep steps, but this is not really an issue. You get used to it, just like the Dutch have! The bed is very comfortable and you have everything you need. The quiet street is near the Museumplein area, just a walk from the Rijksmuseum, and close to tram stops, shops and restaurants. A wonderful stay!
