Chantal's apartment is located in a quiet area north of Amsterdam, about 20 minutes from Central Station, which means you have to cross the station first, through the IJ Passage, then take a free ferry that runs every 6 minutes during the week and at 12 minutes on weekends. Accommodation is relatively ok, although a kitchenette would have been helpful; a mini fridge and minimal kitchen facilities are offered; the bathroom is also shared.
