The neighborhood is just outside the busy city centre of Amsterdam. That makes the area wonderfully quiet. If you still want to go into the crowds; you can reach the center within 10 minutes by bike. Within walking distance (25 meters) you have the cozy Kanis & Meiland where you can go for a snack and drink. The city center is 4 km away and can be easily reached by bicycle. If available; bicycles are free to use.
