What a wonderful home base for exploring Amsterdam! We had a quiet peaceful location to relax and recharge and could then hop on a bus or tram for a short ride to the busy downtown. There was a nice grocery store nearby where we could pick up supplies. Karin was very helpful with directions and suggestions, both before and during our trip. The space was cozy but four adults were able to manage comfortably without getting in each other's way. And staying on a houseboat in Amsterdam just added to the adventure!
