I stayed with my family at Solveig's place in April. Its location is super central, at a pleasant walking distance from Dam square and all the Center; in an enjoyable and vibrant neighborhood. My kids enjoyed the apartment being spacious and on different levels. One evening we even watched together a DVD from Solveig's collection. I recommend Solveig's place to anyone wanting to stay for a few days in Amsterdam and enjoy the canals and the tourism. Interactions for check-in/check-out were done remotely with Solveig's friend Leonie; she was lovely and always helpful. As specified in the advert, to access the apartment there is a very steep staircase; our 5 years old had no problem, but I wouldn't recommend to younger children. Also, we came to Amsterdam by car and Solveig was GREAT to advise us on where to park it without spending a fortune (far from the flat, you need to take public transports to go back & forth). If you can, avoid going to Amsterdam by car at once, please do it; but if you go, ensure to ask Solveig instructions on where to park and everything will be just fine.
