This apartment is all about the location. De Pjip is fantastic, a really wonderful area to be located. The street is around the corner from the market where I enjoyed buying my fresh produce. It's central and close to a park with a playground. We have two young children so this was perfect. The apartment is also very child friendly especially with one of our children crawling around. Unfortunately there was renovations happening in the apartment above us so we got a lot of noise and this affected me in trying to put kids to sleep. But this is really only for our stay. Other issues were that the back room smelt very moldy, the garden area was incredibly dirty, though we put effort into cleaning it up. Be aware that the bathroom comes off the main bedroom in the front. The kitchen is great as is the common living area with very nice furnishings. There is also nice natural light coming through the skylight. We loved Amsterdam! It's well worth coming to this city.
