Gretel's place is really quiet and accurate to the listing. I visited Amsterdam for a conference, and it was nice to retreat to a quieter, clean space after the hustle and busy qualities of the city. Great place to work remotely, easy to cook food, nice balcony overlooking some greenery. The location is fitting, easy to get around (yet so is Amsterdam in general) but it was nice to get a feel for the neighborhood after Day 2, and realize I was in a safe spot. All in all, I was very happy, and mostly because this place was advertised as experienced. I am hopeful I will be able to stay here again in the future!
