We stayed in the flat for two weeks while our own place was being rebuilt. Being close by to our son's school and our own place was very important for us. The location was in that sense ideal for us! We quickly felt at home at Ruud's place and even prolonged our stay there (delays with the renovation at home). The evening view from the balcony is so good, we enjoyed that very much. The communication with Ruud and Michael was such a relief, in less than an hour we were able to arrange everything. Overall, a good place for a city trip or a short stay in Rotterdam. Perfectly close to the park, the supermarket, the public swimming pool and with all the city convenience around!
