I've been twice in the past 10 years. I wasn't impressed the first time, and I was much less so the second time. It is almost as impossible to move around efficiently in the middle of Amsterdam as it is in gridlocked motor traffic.
I was there last year, and numerous times over the last 25 years. My wife and I have always gotten around just fine by foot, train, by bike and by tram. You must have been in a different Amsterdam than we have experienced.
