Karel was a very gracious and hospitable host. I stayed in his Guest Room for 5 nights while I was in The Hague helping my son move into Leiden University and the room was perfect for my needs. I had rented a bike and there was an area in the front entry of his home that I was able to keep it. His home is in a very nice area that is centrally located and within walking distance to the center of The Hague and the Peace Palace. Just around the corner are 4 or 5 restaurants, all with outdoor seating. Karel laid out a traditional Dutch breakfast for me each morning which was a nice surprise. His home was very cozy and was a wonderful place to stay. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for a home away from home.
