The place is comfortable and looks just as the photos. At the front you can see from the kitchen the main street and at the back has a beautiful sight to the canal. It is not too far from the heart of Amsterdam, 10 or 15 minutes by tram which is just a few steps from the apartment. There are many fruit stores and groceries market’s in the neighborhood as well as restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and secure.
