I got lucky when some other poor traveler got sick, so I got to book it pretty last minute and the interaction was timely and reassuring. The room itself is sweet as any I've seen: clean, well supplied and recently renovated. It was bigger than a lot of European hotel rooms I've seen and they view made it hard to leave. I'm sure I save money because i was happy to stay in, sipping coffee while looking at the canal. My brief encounters with the hosts and their child were pleasant and helpful. I hope that I get to return to Dorien and Maurice's sometime soon.
