Jacqueline's apartment was a lovely surprise. It looked charming in the pictures, but was even cooler when I arrived. The furnishings were perfect and the rustic appearance of the converted school building attic was super cool. I really liked all the exposed beams, it felt almost like a fort. With all the windows, even with all the rain during my visit it always felt light and open.
As I was in Amsterdam working on a tradeshow, it was great to retreat every night to a neighborhood without the tourists and conference attendees. With just a short tram ride or two, I think I could get home every night in just 15 to 30 minutes.
The neighborhood around Rembrant Plein was also really nice. The park itself is really beautiful and there were many nice 'local' restaurants in walking distance. BarTack downstairs became a regular stop-in for me coming home after a day at the conference center.
I have to also thank Jacqueline herself for her attentive attention to her guests. She met me on arrival and patiently walked me through the apartment from the coffee maker to the emergency evacuation process. Best of all she left me some treats including a bag of salty Dutch licorice which just happens to my an addiction of mine. ;)
Highly recommended and I would return if available.
