We had a really great experience at Miriam's artist studio. It's right on the 9 tram lines so easy to get into the center, but very peaceful location. It was super spacious, had all that we needed, and was in a quiet little area of Amsterdam right on one of the canals, and near a stellar Italian restaurant and a very welcoming local bar called Mojo where we had absolutely delicious beer and gourmet food. Our plane was delayed and we weren't able to arrive until very late, but Miriam was happily waiting for us. There was (real!) coffee, a coffee pot, tea, and a beer for us as well. We'll definitely be coming back!
