What a great apartment! If/when I move to beautiful Holland I will live just like this. Not only is it a trendy loft apartment in the middle of Den Haag, it's also part of an historical Dutch neighbourhood. Jobien's sense of design is impeccable, and every room of the family's apartment illustrates this (I got a tour of the rooms downstairs too). As a fellow traveller I love the fact that she has little souvenirs of every place she's been, including a book from my country, and from her service and communication it's easy to see that she has been a guest several times herself.

Further, within a radius of 200m there are trams, Supermarkets (Albert Heijn) and local cafees (Cafe Blossom, Appeltje Eitje etc), so my days as a tourist went smoothly. I also went jogging past the Peace Palace to Scheveningen Beach (30 min) and enjoyed yoga at Balanzs Studio. When I didn't cook "at home" I could always find a place to eat in Prins Hendrikstraat (Savanna, De Pasta Kantine etc).

More importantly the bedroom was quiet, which can be challenging when travelling in big cities. The bedroom window faced the street but with mostly family residents there was no noise after 11pm. The bathroom was white and spacious, with beautiful design and a great shower, and I could use the washing machine downstairs. However, bear in mind that this is one of two studio apartments which she rents out, so you will meet different tenants in addition to seeing the family downstairs (shared hallway, stairs and entrance). This is the only reason it gets four and not five stars. Besides that, I would definitely recommend this apartment to others and stay here again on future visits to Den Haag.
