Great spot in a great neighborhood - we really enjoyed our stay. It looked even better than the photos - lots of space, yet had cozy real-home feel. The neighborhood is residential and lively, with lots of great restaurants and grocery stores nearby. It was very friendly for non-Dutch speakers. The host was very helpful providing a list of go-to spots in the area, and communicating with us frequently to make sure everything was OK - we didn't have any issues, but I'm sure he would have been very responsive if we did. Stairs to the second floor were pretty steep - wasn't a problem for us, but that could be an issue for an older person who has trouble with stairs as the only shower is upstairs. It was very nice to be out of the city center but close enough to get there with a 20 to 30 minute walk, or easy tram access a couple of blocks away. Would recommend for a couple or small group looking to have a more laid-back Amsterdam experience.
