Rijk's place is ideally situated if you seek authentic Dutch experiences. The stairs (shown in his photos) were daunting for me, but I am 75 and my friend had a broken foot and a crutch. A more hospitable host could not be found! You will need a taxi or tram from the train station, but museums and fabulous restaurants are within walking distance and tempting specialty shops abound. I hope to return some time. BBK
