Philippa and Richard - November 18, 2009
We go to Amsterdam once or twice a year as my husband used to work there, and I to have grown to love it. This time we thought we would stay in a different part of Amsterdam right next to the Vondel Park that we always use to cycle through and very much enjoy as it is an unusually friendly park.
Rita was fantastic helping us with our every need as well as providing us with a really good breakfast and a lovely high ceiling apartment to stay in. The bedroom is so beautifully decorated with every comfort and the tall windows look out over the garden below so one could see the large trees branches swaying in the breeze, I would lie in bed in the morning and feel totally relaxed and cosy.
We will defiantly be staying here again.
Thank you Rita.
Jorg & Merle - November 17, 2009

Dear Rita,
I enjoyed so much staying at your place in Amsterdam. The rooms gave that warmth of a home and they were much nicer than they could ever appear on pictures. The modern bathroom had even a whirlpool which I did not find the time to try out. The bedroom gave you that nice feeling of being protected in a hide-away. I could even have my private visit by one of the nice cats. And above all thefriendly and thoughtful lady of the house with an open smile. Thank you for the many coffees in the morning, thank you for the flowers, for the sweets and for the nice conversations.
