My husband and I spent a week here as part of our honeymoon around Europe. Ellen’s studio was a great home away from home, and in a great neighborhood. She is about half a mile from the museum quarter so it was very walkable to so many things. The metro and tram system were very accessible from her home too; Amsterdam public transit was very English-friendly, so we bought unlimited passes to get anywhere we didn’t feel like walking to. While we didn’t meet Ellen during our stay, she was happy to assist with anything we needed or give recommendations. We quite enjoyed the neighborhood, and were happy with our stay!
