I'll say what I said to Marion: We will definitely book with her again when we go back to Amsterdam. The room is big, well-equipped, has the best bed ever, and I can't think of a better location, so close to the big art galleries and jazz clubs and boat tours and restaurants of all kinds. You can even get your hair done beautifully in her adjacent salon! The street is pretty and you get a real sense of the way people live their lives in this charming neighborhood, with kids and parents zipping by on bicycles before and after school. Marion is warm, comfortable, fun, and friendly, just the perfect person to make people feel at home in her house. Her own living space is upstairs and the room you rent is one the main floor, opening onto a lovely quiet garden. Top notch.
