This was just a wonderful experience from beginning to end. Rini was great at communicating and answering any questions weeks before we even arrived. He even sent photos of the Christmas tree in the private garden with snow on it a couple weeks before we arrived. When we did arrive we were greeted with champagne and tasty Dutch treats. This place is beautiful with lovely art and perfect lighting day and night. It was a perfect spot for my family of 4 - the beds were the most comfortable. It is absolutely right in the center of town - right on a green line cannal tour stop (we bought a 48 hour pass and took the boat to the train station on our way to the airport). Despite being in the center of everything, it is super quiet inside at night - you could hear a pin drop. Martin was very welcoming and gave great advice on restaurants and even brought over some laudry detergent when he learned I wanted to do a load of laundry. I will recommend this place to everyone I know and hope to visit again myself! Enjoy!
