This apartment was very nice. We stayed there three days in October 2017. There is a locked lobby door-- as well as your apartment door. The apartment is very safe. Be forewarned: they are very steep steps going up to the apartment, which is on the (U.S.) second floor. The apartment has all the amenities that you need. kitchen was modern. very large bed that was very comfortable. Couch and chair providing comfort, as well. Shower was very nice. Water pressure good. Plentiful hot water. The bathroom was very clean. Soap and clean towels provided. We leisurely walked through the city and it took 40 minutes to get to the Rijksmuseum, and the Van Gogh Museum. It took about 35 minutes walking to the Anne Frank House. City centre is about 20 minutes walking. The apartment is about a 20 minute walk from Centraal rail station. The only negative about our stay was that there was a lot of pounding with people walking in the apartment above us. If you are a light sleeper, or need complete silence in the evening, then you might think twice about this apartment. The apartment itself is very very nice, but the thumping above your head, from the apartment upstairs, was a bit much at times. Other than that, communication with the property manager was good. The apartment was very clean, and safe. The apartment is only 3 blocks away from a Spar grocery store. The apartment is very close to many different types of restaurants. You are also very close to the NEMO Science Museum on the waterfront. We would recommend more highly if not for some of the evening noise which I think (to be fair) is normal for an older building in Amsterdam. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.
