This apartment was in a great location for our group to explore the city. Half of us wanted to hang out in the center, and the other half wanted to be in De Pijp and Jordaan, and we could easily walk to all of those spots. The immediate neighborhood is lively, but you can’t hear the noise in the apartment. It is a tight squeeze for four adults, easier for a couple or a family with small kids. Mireille and Daan were awesome... flexible with our late arrival and quick to respond to questions. (Also, the coffee machine is fantastic!)
