I had an absolutely wonderful time staying with Marijke. She was so sweet and such an interesting woman to talk to, she gave such great information on how to get about the city and where to go. The room is very private but she is right in the next room in the house if you need her, it's a perfect set up. I wish I had more time to stay in Amsterdam, I loved it there. The next time I visit I will definitely stay with Marijke, she has a wonderful personality and I would consider her a friend.
