This was a fantastic start to our trip. Myrthe was an amazing host - went out of her way to ensure we were welcomed by her personally, and provided us with a comprehensive booklet with tips for every aspect of the city (where to eat, where to go, how to get around). The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was equipped for us to cook. The area is safe and quiet, but close to public transport (2 min walk to bus/tram stops that go all over the city). Also within walking distance to the Jordaan area with stores, restaurants, etc. Would highly recommend!
