I never met the host, but entrance to the home and use of wifi was clearly laid out for me via email and messages in the home. The windmill was beautiful, and the way the house was incorporated with the interior was fascinating. The windmill is on the edge of a park situated in a outer boro of Amsterdam that I found to be beautiful. The town was easily accessible by bus, and perfectly walkable. It was a wonderful stay made more special by a very sweet and friendly resident cat. The only negative was that there was another person staying in the windmill that I was not made aware of (or maybe I was but I didn't have internet during my entire trip so I couldn't check my mail), though I had an inkling there was another person in the house. That said however, I left my luggage downstairs open and unattended, and was going about my life as if I was alone in the house. Luckily, I was spared from an encounter that could have been more embarrassing than the one I had with the other guest. Overall a great stay and I would highly recommend.
