Staying at Rini's bright and airy studio in Amsterdam was a wonderful experience. We were there during the Remembrance Day observance on May 4 2017 for the anniversary of Holland's liberation from the Nazis in WWII. The town held a grand procession with a wreath laying ceremony at Dam Square to honor the victims of that war. But on to the studio - the location was perfect. Literally around the corner from a major Metro stop (Waterlooplein) and on the street outside is a tram stop for transport to all the major sites. For convenience, we purchased a 72 hour transport pass at the airport before we took the train to Waterlooplein. The studio was ready for us and Rini had provided everything we needed in the way of milk, eggs, cheese and fresh fruit. We found two excellent restaurants within walking distance - Il Canto at #2 Amstel and Harmsen's on Utrechtstrasse. A great bakery "Bake My Day" is a 5 minute walk across the bridge. Rini was also helpful in arranging a taxi to the airport for our departure. We are an elderly couple so the fact that the apartment is on the street level was very convenient for us. We have stayed at many airbnb apartments but this was by far the best.
