I stayed at Lilian's flat with 2 teenagers. The bus or tram are just 3 minutes from the flat and take you into the city center in no time, you can even walk to the van gogh museum in less than 30 minutes. The area is very safe and there's a supermarket 5 MN away (they do not accept visa card though). There's a little garden at the back but we didn't get a chance to use it. Lilian was very reactive and always reachable. The flat is well equipped and spacious and the beds are comfortable. My only negative comment is about the cleanliness but I guess this can easily be improved.
