Marc's apartment was impeccably clean, quiet, modern, spacious and has a drop dead view - which is exquisite at night. He graciously welcomed us and showed us the ins and outs of the apartment. A big plus is that his place is a close 8 minute walk to and from Centraal Station which for day trips and tours is enormously convenient. The second plus is that it is on the border of Jordaan district - so beautiful and quiet - and thus away from the 'touristy' area. Also, it's a quick 15 minute stroll to Anne Frank Huis and little cafe's and pubs. The 'dutch' stairs up are easy to ascend, though we didn't have anything but carry-on luggage so we were fine with them. Thank you, Marc, for a lovely stay!
