The flat was exactly like in the pictures and in an ideal location for my trip, close to the center, but in a quiet neighborhood. It is in a lovely red brick building on the first floor, up a steep set of stairs, typical for Amsterdam. Jill was super responsive and accommodating. Hotels were ridiculously expensive because there was a big conference going on, so getting to stay in this spacious flat with canal views for a fraction of the cost of a hotel room was a big bonus.
