This place is beyond what it looks like in the photographs. The house is on a great location, a bike ride close to the city center but still far away from the city's nasty environment. It is really like a village and it has a great garden a green surroundings. Marleen is a very nice person and very quick to respond to any questions you might have. She has a great booklet, a "manual" of the house you might say, which contains everything you need. From 'how to use the coffee machine' to 'what can be done or where to see in Amsterdam' . She also let's you use whatever in the house, including the bikes they have. The neighbors are nice and very friendly and helpful as well. That's a great value journey and stay we had and we advise you the same. Cheers
