We have just returned from a long weekend at this wonderful apartment. After reading previous reviews I was hoping that it would live up to expectations and it certainly did! The apartment itself was lovely and clean, located nicely on the outskirts of the busy city centre. Arien was a great host and provided good local knowledge on where to eat and drink and also how to get about. We walked in and out to the centre each day via different routes seeing most that we wanted to see. You could also easily catch the tram into the centre which would take 5 mins, a day pass was €8..... we only did this on the last day to get back to station with luggage. All in all we had a wonderful time with no complaints and would recommend a stay here, it certainly beats a hotel as it gives you a great taste of life in Amsterdam.
