Mirella is an amazing host for her city! I met her at her Café and we went together to the apartment which is nearby. The neighborhood is quiet and safe with really good restaurants at either end of the block. The Apartment is spacious and light. Good wifi, and a tv if needed. For those in need, a coffee shop or two is nearby. A BNB a block away is a great place to get a morning croissant and coffee, and there is a good supermarket only 2 blocks away. Tram #4 was the best which is also one block away, as it goes from Centraal Station to RAI! I was attending the IBC at RAI so the location is spectacular. Mirella was helpful with any questions, and able to help out if needed. The 2 bedrooms and the full basement made for plenty of room for me and my friends to spread out and have our own space. The shower is perfect - no tub for those that need it. The Amstel is a block east as is the Amstel Hotel for tea. I can't vouch for parking in the neighborhood but there appears to be spaces available. Of course, plenty of room for bikes! This location is nearby all the museums and really is convenient for anyone wanting a spacious apartment to get away but want to be able to easily get to central or RAI. For those coming from the airport, I highly recommend buying a ticket in the airport lobby and taking the train on platforms 1 or 2 to Centraal Station. From there, walk out, and go to the left to find the stopping point for the Tram #4. You will need a OV Chipkaart, which can be purchased at the station, or you can pay at the rear of the tram. Many of the larger shows at RAI also give away free travel passes at the information booth if you ask! You can get off at Prinsengracht to met Mirella at her café, or you can continue on to Stadhouderskade which is only 2 blocks from the apartment.

Enjoy your time there and be sure to give Mirella my best!
