The apartment is in a great location close to the heart of Amsterdam. It is spacious and light filled, and very clean with everything needed for our week long stay. The apartment occupies the top two floors of a canal house overlooking a nice street and very close to the canal (about 30 metres). The stairs up to the apartment are very steep which is apparently typical of canal house but a bit difficult with a big suitcase. The street was a little noisy on weekends but quiet during the week. Remco was a nice host who met us on arrival and we had no problems during the week. For anyone visiting Amsterdam with young children, the NEMO science museum is a must-do. We spent an entire day there.
