Daphne was a great host, always very quick to respond and very helpful. Her apartment is lovely - very stylishly decorated and light and airy with a couple of nice balconies to sit out on. It is conveniently located, being around the corner from a tram stop from which you can get to the city centre in 15-20 minutes. The neighbourhood has some cool bars and restaurants and the apartment is close to a couple of nice parks. This is a great base from which to explore Amsterdam; we didn't want to leave!
