Debby was a wonderful host and her studio was a fantastic home base for us while staying in Amsterdam. The studio is located on a quiet street yet still very assessable to public transportation- tram 7 is only a few minutes walk away. There are several restaurants within a blocks walk- we particularly enjoyed The Breakfast Club. On most mornings, there is an open air market at the end of the street selling fresh produce, fruit, and other items. The space was perfect for my husband and I- plenty of room to relax after a long day of exploring. And yes, the stairs are as described- definitely not for those with mobility issues but those willing to make the climb won't be disappointed. My experience with apartments in Europe is that the best ones are typically at the end of some pretty crazy stairs. Debby was very helpful in assisting us in our travel to Keukenhof Gardens. She also got us orange hats in celebration of King's Day- a very nice touch! We would definitely consider staying at Debby's place again during return travels to Amsterdam.
