Wow! I strongly recommend this apartment. On arrival at the front door, I was turned off because of the smell of cigarette smoke from the bar next door. BUT that turned out not to bother us. We couldn't smell it in the apartment at all. And the apartment was WONDERFUL! This is a very good sized 2 bedroom. Plenty of space for a group of 4, and 5 if someone will sleep in the living room on the single bed there. The living space is really large. The furnitures is all very comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked. And the location is amazing. It is just steps from a great outdoor market, across the street from many restaurants, one block from a grocery store and a coffee shop. And it is about 1 block from many trams. We found the trams to be an easy and comfortable way to get around. The touristy things all seemed to be about 12-15 minutes away by tram. So -- all accessible, but not in your face. The apartment feels like it's in a neighborhood, rather than a tourist trap. If I'm every back in Amsterdam, I would definitely try to get this apartment again.
