I was greeted upon arrival and after settling in I was offered an espresso and given a map and brief orientation from Heleen's husband Karel. They both helped to make me feel very comfortable and welcomed. Heleen is a very nice lady. The neighborhood is amazing with very short walks to public transportation that will get you to amd from the airport. The house is also very close to so many great places to eat, grab an espresso, or a glass of wine next to one of the many canals. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat and would definitely stay here when I come back again!
