The apartment is in a great location 15 minutes from the centre of Amsterdam. There are shops and restaurants in close proximity and everything is easily accessible. The apartment is nice but could benefit from a better clean, there was a strong smell of smoke even with the windows open. If you are a smoker this will be fine but if not it can become a little overwhelming. A good tip is to bring some mosquito repellent if the weather is going to be warm.we had great weather but the mozzies love the windows being open. Raoul placed a mosquito net over the bed which was useful to keep them away.
