Vera's place was exactly as described. A lovely, clean and tidy space with all the amenities you could ask for. The location was great -- about twenty minutes walk into the centre of the city but also close the western side of Amsterdam which was our favourite location and with plenty of transport links on the doorstep too.
Unfortunately we didn't get to meet Vera but her friend who welcomed us to the property was extremely friendly and helpful and made us feel right at home.

We thought it was worth mentioning also that there were a handful of really great places right on the doorstep too including a thriving bar called Checkpoint Charlie, an excellent barbecue restaurant called Braai up the road and a little vegan cafe not much further too. These were all excellent and we'd highly recommend if you're looking for something closer to home!
