Smooth operation and Amy's instructions made it easy to find and check-in for this first-time visitor to Amsterdam. It's very easy from the apartment to get around Amsterdam using public transport. You share the apartment with other guests, though I didn't actually see any of them during my quick stay. I'd say the place itself isn't as well-maintained as it appears in the photos, it wasn't dirty, just not really somewhere nice to hang out during the day. However, if you're just looking for a place to crash at night, it's certainly better than a hostel. They give you your own key to lock your room from the outside (and inside) so that's a plus in terms of security.
