This is was our second visit to the Blue Door. See a more detailed review we left after our July 2019 stay. Once again, the amenities offered at the Blue Door stand out....the two leased bicycles available for guest use were more than a convenience--they are essential to getting around any Dutch city. We used them extensively, even during this last visit in November. We even made an extended day trip to the dunes and the beach, riding about 10 miles along the bike path through the dunes parallel to the coastline.
Upon our arrival, we were greeted with a nice note and two chocolate bars which come from a nearby chocolatier offering a wide selection of fair-trade sourced chocolate products (which we visited twice during our stay). The apartment itself has high speed wi-fi, a stove, oven, fridge, and a well stocked larder with all sorts of goodies. I discovered Droste brand drinking cocoa while there. Note that there is no TV or microwave in the apartment, but I was quite cozy with the oven and gas burner. The separate WC and bathroom areas are old-school Euro style which should be familiar to most world travelers. The hosts, Ilse and Floris, live in the same home on the upper two floors and are available onsite if there are any issues. Also, they are long-term residents of the Hague and a font of knowledge about local restaurants, sights to see, and bargains to be had.
Since our son and daughter in law live within walking distance of the Blue Door, it's likely we will be returning their....not only for the proximity, but for the hospitality and comfort of the Blue Door.
