We spent just under a week in holland. We fell in love with both holland and amsterdam and I think staying at Dorien and her family's beautiful house made the trip perfect.
Where to start.
The house is spacious and beautifully decorated and has three large bedrooms, wonderful kitchen, beautiful dinning area and a small intimate balcony. We had everything we needed, tv, washer/ dryer, fully equipped kitchen.
Dorien left us instructions regarding the appliances and the house, the area and a map and books on amsterdam.
Ofcourse everything was very clean and we were provided with towels for all the family.
The house is located in an amazing neighborhood of De Pjip. The area has lots of shops, coffee houses, restaurants and is close to a market.
The area is close enough and with easy tram access to central amsterdam. And is also conveniently located to go out of the city.
As with most amsterdam, parking is not free but we never had problems finding a close parking spot.
For those with difficulties, the house is on the second and third floor, with very steep and narrow stairs. Again typical for amstersam.
We got to meet Dorien and her family as we were leaving which was great. They are a wonderful family. Thank you !
