Great little penthouse space with a lovely outdoor deck. Jesper and Ellen were always easy to communicate with and got back to us immediately with any questions. The quiet neighborhood is about a 40 minute walk from the Dam Square area. Lovely little shops and restaurants to venture into near the apartment, renting bikes is the way to go and you're not too far from Vondelpark to take a ride if you want to get off the streets. The apartment is very accessible with the tram system (20 minutes to city center), you can take a lot of lines but we mostly used the 13 line which can also bring you straight to the train station. Trams are pretty frequent throughout the day but stop around midnight, so if you plan on staying out late near the red light district it will be a bit of a walk home or an expensive taxi.
Would highly recommend this apartment and hope to stay with Jesper, Ellen, and Yara in the future when we return to the beautiful city of Amsterdam!
