Rik's apartment is remarkably quiet and private given its very central location just a block away from busy Grote Markt. Super-easy transportation - major tram stop just a block away, a large grocery store and many restaurants very close by. There's also a bicycle rental a block away too! The room is small but the bed comfortable, and the window faces the back, away from the street noise so is quite quiet even on busy evenings. Rik was a terrific host - happy to chat and give advice on things to see, but otherwise off doing his own thing much of the time. The shared spaces of the apartment are very pleasant, with a comfortable living room and kitchen well set up for guests to use. Great place to stay right in the center of Den Haag!
One thing to note is the two flights of (typical old dutch house) steep narrow stairs leading up to the apartment.
