They add: "Along the Amstel there are friendly people, behind Cygnus the school I was almost robbed a couple of times by boys, but otherwise fine." This single review gives a nuanced picture of a neighbourhood with both charm and rough edges. The neighbourhood Weesperzijde-Midden/Zuid has a mix of pre-war housing and modern flats.
For your morning bread, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's an AH to go even closer. The Cygnus Gymnasium is a five-minute walk away, while primary school Integraal Kindcentrum De Kaap is a couple of streets further. The Amstel riverbank is a ten-minute walk, perfect for a lunchtime stroll. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and transport links you'd expect from the capital.
