Eveline was a perfect host - she greeted me warmly and made me feel at home so that I really felt like I was a guest in a home rather than in an anonymous apartment. The apartment itself is very comfortable and has a lot of character - you definitely feel part of the neighbourhood. The location at one end in Jordaan is very convenient, with lots of cafes, restaurants and the Saturday market a short stroll away (and not far from the Anne Frank House). In fact, if you enjoy walking, it is feasible to get anywhere in the center on foot from Eveline's place - I walked to the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum, even though that does take a bit more time. Eveline also left lots of thoughtful touches and has great tips for the local area.
