Firstly, I must say that Jacobiene is a wonderful host! I can't begin to say how welcoming she was to my family and I; truly a home away from home. On arrival, there was tea, coffee, and these amazing Dutch treats called “stroopwaffles” there to greet us. The place looked exactly like the pictures, the rooms were very spacious, but the view from the living room was the best part. We'd have our morning coffee watching the calm water and the cyclists ride on the nearby bridge, a very nice way to start our day. Jacobiene was only a text away whenever we had any questions regarding the place or suggestions as to where to grab a quick bite to eat.
We rented a car for this trip and parking in the area was moderately priced. The city centre is only 12 minutes away by tram, so if possible I would suggest avoiding renting a vehicle and take transit instead. Fortunately the tram stops was a short distance away from Jacobiene’s place, making travelling to and from the city centre a breeze.
This was my first time using Airbnb and I must say it was an amazing experience. The place and our host, Jacobiene were amazing and I'd highly recommend her place to everyone.
