I had the most fantastic and wonderful stay at Irene's house, and will certainly be returning! The room was extremely clean and very well appointed with a very comfortable bed, a desk, clothes hangers, and facilities to make tea and coffee. It was also very warm and cosy. The bathroom and WC were also extremely clean, and I have high standards for such things. The house is very well located. It is easily accessed by public transport and to can travel to all parts of the city from there including the beach, which is close.
The best part about the place, however, is the hosts. Irene and her family were truly wonderful. They made me feel incredibly welcome in their home from the moment I arrived until I left, and they were very happy to help me with all the questions that I had about the local area and living in Holland. Whilst it felt like a home away from home, the hosts are incredibly respectful of your privacy, and if you wished you could come and go as if you were staying in a hotel. However, that would be to miss out on the best aspect of this place which is the hosts. I will certainly be staying at Irene's place whenever I am in The Netherlands and very much look forward to returning. I would wholeheartedly recommend staying here.
