We did not have the pleasure of meeting Maxime and family because they were out of town, but they left extensive, clear, and helpful information about the flat, the neighborhood, and the city. It was a great place to stay in a fantastic neighborhood that managed to be both quiet and close to lively cafes and restaurants. It was an easy walk to the Rijksmuseum, canal boats, and plenty of other attractions. The city center was a short tram ride away. The apartment itself was beautiful, clean, spacious, and quiet. The balconies were a great place to have morning coffee. We are a family of four, with a teenager and an almost-teenager, and had plenty of space. We were so sad to leave!
