Joke's place is a great option for a couple, or a few friends or a small family traveling to Amsterdam. The location is right at the edge of the touristic center, which means everything is in easy walking distance, but you won't have to fight the crowds. The wifi was perfect, and we packed light, so the washer and dryer were very helpful. Joke pointed out several great bakeries and grocery stores in the area, so we were able to get to know what the locals buy and made a nice breakfast every morning.
