Mieke was a great host, kept in contact prior to arrival and gave accurate directions from the airport to her flat. The apartment is beautiful (photos do not do it justice!) and spacious, about a 20min tram journey into Amsterdam Central. She provided us with maps and told us some of the best places to visit. We all had a great time.

The only "bad" thing was that we were told we should leave the flat between 10-10.15am on the day of departure - when we left at 10.15am, happened to bump into Mieke at the park, and immediately said we were late leaving the flat. Maybe she forgot she told us we could leave at 10.15am, but it made us a little annoyed after having a great stay that she seemed to imply we outstayed our welcome.

Overall a great place for our trip and Mieke was a lovely host.
