Mariska's place is a neat, small flat/house just 15 minutes away from the central station of Amsterdam (by foot and free ferry). We only walked to and around the city when we stayed there and the distance was totally manageable. When you are done with your daily programme, Mariska's place offers a wonderful retreat in a quiet neighbourhood. It was all as described and Mariska was a very friendly and communicative host who wanted to make sure, that everything went well. Thank you!
