We had a wonderful stay at Roel's windmill. First night Roel took some time with us and the boys to comment about the windmill and Amsterdam. It was very educative! The room is relaxing with everything needed to have a sweet sleep (herbal tea and hot water). The windmill is conveniently located in a very quiet place not too far away from downtown (within bike reach - bikes which can be rented directly at Roel's). It's also a good start to go west towards Haarlem and the see.
Roel was very accommodating with us and our two boys, he offered the boys to sleep in his son's room while he and his son were out. Roel also offered us to enjoy the kitchen while he was away. Finally the kids loved the cat. Little one's best souvenir of the week-end is the cute cat.
