My partner and I stayed at Karens for two weeks over winter. We had a fantastic time there and couldn't have been happier with the apartment. Our biggest concern coming from Australia was keeping warm! The apartment was well heated and super cosy! It was perfectly positioned close to the train and tram as well as the university where I had to work Monday to Friday. Extremely easy to get into the city, and I felt very safe walking around the neighbourhood. Great facilities in the apartment with lovely clean linen and space to cook and refrigerate your own food. Karen and her husband were lovely hosts setting us up with food and maps on arrival. We would not hesitate to recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Amsterdam and look forward to staying there again in the future!
