The neighborhood and location was excellent. You are so close to the red light district, yet in a quieter section of the city. Unfortunately that is where the satisfaction ended. The room is small, as expected, but there is no place to put any possessions or suitcase save one very small closet space to hang a few things. The door to the room has no lock and the description promises a locking drawer, but the drawers were filled to the brim with the owner's possessions. The bathroom was clean, but the shower wets the entire bathroom as seen in older Dutch homes which would be ok except that you are provided with only one towel per person and none for the floor which will not dry as there is no ventilation in the bathroom and no window. The linens are old and stained. And to top it all off as we left a huge bug craweled out of the couch where I had been sitting. We never met the owner, but she had a charming son who cleaned the room for us the first day. I'm sure they are very nice people, but the accomodations were below what we had hoped for for sure!
