• Edward (9/5): -
• carlota (10/5): - La ubicación, la decoración, todo.. Todo bien
• Jamie (9/5): -
• torsten (10/5): -
• David (10/5): -
• Maria Kolobova (10/5): -
• Steury (10/5): Excellent stay. Agree with all the great reviews! - Great location, Great value, good amount of space, nice kitchen, great communication with host
• Elina (10/5): -
• Dillon (8/5): Great location in downtown Haarlem for our family’s stay during Spring Break. - The location in downtown Haarlem was excellent. The apartment we stayed in was clean and comfortable and had a nice living area and kitchen. The fact that our bedroom was up two very steep and narrow flights of stairs from the nearest toilet (on the ground floor) was a minor inconvenience. One partial solution would be to make the couch in the living room one with a pull-out bed.
• Rianne (10/5): - De ligging van t appartement, de geweldige host en t appartement zelf. Dit is heel comfortabel en sfeervol ingericht. Ondanks dat t midden in t centrum ligt is t heel rustig. Niets
• Clemens (9/5): Schönes langes Wochenende in historischem Gebäude im Herzen der Altstadt! - Phantastische Lage mitten im alten Stadtzentrum; großes geschmackvoll eingerichtetes, besonderes Apartment, geschickt integriert und modernisiert in alten Mauern in einem historischen Gebäude. Kleine, gut eingezäunte private Terrasse zu einem kleinen Park hin, der nur tagsüber der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich ist. Parken ist wie üblich im (erfreulicherweise) praktisch autofreien Zentrum von Haarlem nicht direkt bei der Unterkunft möglich; in der Nähe (in der gleichen Straße und etwas weiter ebenfalls fußläufig beim Bahnhof) gibt es öffentliche Parkhäuser, die wie üblich auch nicht ganz billig sind. Online-Reservierung im Voraus kann sich lohnen wegen zeitvariabler Tarife.
• Deborrah (9/5): - Grande chambre dans un passage caché non loin du centre de Haarlem. Petite terrasse si le temps le permet. Cuisine bien équipée.
• Roy (10/5): Fantastische accomodatie op een geweldige plek - Prachtige royale plek middenin. Het centrum
• Jolien (9/5): Lokatie kan bijna niet centraler, toch zeer rustig 's nachts! - Ontbijt was zeer uitgebreid en aangepast naar dieet wensen. Zeer vriendelijke en behulpzame host die goed te bereiken was en snel reageerde op vragen het 3e bed was een opklapbed, deze was erg hard maar dit werd gelijk opgelost door de host om een topper er op te leggen.
• Leisha (10/5): Very enjoyable stay in a beautiful apartment in a beautiful city. - The apartment was a nice size, very bright and comfortable. It had everything you needed for an enjoyable stay. Great location also.
• Ella-Louise (10/5): Excellent central location, couldn’t really be any closer to the main square. Barbra was a lovey host and really helpful - Beautiful, spacious, clean, excellent location, Barbra was great, really helpful
• Alexa (5/5): Not worth the money, stay somewhere else - Close to many great restaurants and shopping We were really disappointed when we arrived at the apartment. The bathroom had hairs all over the walls, a cobweb hanging from the shower head and dust on the towel warmer rack. I contacted the owner to let her know and she replied that her cleaner went to check and said that there were no hairs or cobweb.. The patio that we were looking forward to having our morning coffee on was dirty and clearly hadn’t been touched recently and the interior furniture felt unclean as well. There were parts of the floorboards that had water damage and mold developing. For what we paid we found the property to be extremely lacking and uncomfortable. We left a night early after booking a nonrefundable reservation for four nights. Overall the apartment didn’t feel like the pictures or the reviews made it seem.
• Caroline (9/5): Comfortable and spacious place to use as a base - with great views of the town - The loft apartment was light airy and very spacious. It was very well equipped and furnished, with comfortable beds and good sized bathroom.
• ALAIN (8/5): Excellent choix pour vivre le centre historique de Haarl - L’emplacement, la présence discrète de l’hôte, le calme. Manque un point d’eau dans les étages. Rampe incomplète pour monter les escaliers du rdc au 1er et absence de rampe du 1er au 2ème sur des escaliers très pentus.

• Madeleine (10/5): - Had an excellent stay at the apartment. The space is very cozy and the bed very comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils so we were able to cook easily. And the washing machine was very convenient. Barbara is so lovely and excellent with communication, we felt right at home. The location is fantastic, right off the main square but also down the road from the station. Easy to reach most things by foot, including supermarkets around the corner. We would love to return, highly recommend. Everything was great!
• Maksym (10/5): -
• Nina (10/5): -

• Daniel (10/5): -
• Demiroğlu (10/5): İyi mimari, temiz ve keyifli bir konaklama - Şehrin merkezinde, ahşap çatılı, her detayı düşünülmüş harika bir konaklamaydı. Balkonu iç açıcı olmasa da sigara içenler için amaca yönelik. Rüzgar şiddetliydi ve o an ahşap çatılı bir yerde olmak biraz korkutucuydu. Bu tamamen benimle ilgili😊
• Helga (9/5): - Heel ruim, en qua ligging perfect, super vriendelijke gastvrouw!
• Frank (10/5): Absolut empfehlenswert - Perfekte Lage, phantastisch Appartement, sehr freundlicher Kontakt. Immer für uns da. Nichts
• Larissa (9/5): Un nid douillet, cosy, un peu bruyant mais c’est normal car c’est animé avec le magasin en journée, mais soirée calme - Le confort, les équipements, la proximité avec le centre, l’accueil chaleureux, la qualité de l’appartement de façon générale.
• Andy (10/5): Great place to stay close to Amsterdam but a lot quieter and easy to get to. - Very spacious and comfortable, great central location, warm and cosy. Nothing
• Algis (10/5): Highly recommended - the location was amazing: Right in the centre of things and yet one street away and quiet....with a charming little park behind. We had a well serviced kitchen for our own needs and the facilities we so comfortable. The only thing that could have been better is if we had booked for longer....it is , to date, the nicest, friendliest place we have stayed in. The hosts were amazing. We are planning a return stay.
• Michael (10/5): We loved at stay at Barbera’s house. The property met all our needs and more. Perfectly located for everything. Loved it - Amazing location, traditional features, super comfy beds, great facilities and super friendly/helpful hosts.
• Gregory (10/5): Top -
• Johan (10/5): Top👍 - Centrale ligging, goede verzorging, vriendelijke gastvrouw.
• Nariwan (10/5): So good that I’ll be back. - Beautiful apartment with a garden in the heart of Haarlem. Very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Hosts were super sweet and helpful and made me feel very much cared for and welcome.
• Patrick (9/5): -
• Judd Christian (10/5): Barbera is such a gracious host, everything we need she is there. The place is incredibly neat, beautiful and complete. - The place is super well kept, it has a beautiful interior into it, very spacious, the kitchen is complete and everything is there if you need to cook. Barbera is an amazing host. There is no elevator so you just have to walk up one flight of stairs thats a bit narrow, so might be difficult if you have big items to carry or those who might have a hard time walking on stairs.
• Bart (10/5): Top locatie, fijne eigenaar, top plek om te verblijven. - Prachtige historische locatie in het centrum
• Laurence (10/5): Sejour au top ! - L’emplacement est parfait ; tout près du centre de Haarlem. Le logement est spacieux, très confortable, très propre, très pratique. Les lits sont de très bonne qualité. Un vrai « home sweet home ». Nous avons tout aimé.
• Yvette (9/5): We will be back! Fabulous! - The 2 bed apartment was like home from home. It had everything we needed. The bed and sofa was unbelievably comfortable. Fully equipped kitchen for cooking and cleaning up afterwards. Very spacious. The bathroom has a great shower. Location is perfect you can walk to everywhere in the city. Spotlessly clean with everything you need! The Host Barbera is exceptional she really does think of everything! Communication before and whilst there was excellent. She is very accommodating and has a vast knowledge of the local area. She really cares about her guests and their experience whilst staying in her apartment. If you have never stayed in The Netherlands before you may not be aware of the stairs! It’s not just this apartment most are like this. They are very steep and narrow. You will have to supervise children on them. If you are not sure footed you may struggle with them. Both bedrooms are upstairs. Far from a complaint from us we loved the place and would definitely book again, just worth mentioning in case your mobility isn’t good!
• Herald (9/5): -
• Saskia (8/5): We hebben enorm genoten van onze accommodatie, heerlijk in het centrum. - De locatie was perfect gelegen midden in het centrum van Haarlem. De accommodatie was van alle gemakken voorzien ( wasmachine, oven en een vaatwasser. De accommodatie is erg ruim ingedeeld.
• Zoemo (8/5): -
• Mira_bel (9/5): - Very nice room in great location (old town - close to everywhere), very nice and helpful host. Nicely decorated room, well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed. Nothing. All was great
• Birgit (8/5): Rustige, perfecte locatie in het hartje van Haarlem - Ligging van het appartement en de keuken De steile trappen naar de slaapkamers
• Oliver (2/5): Erwartungen vollständig enttäuscht. Preis überteuert! - Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral in der Nähe des Marktplatzes. Der Garten der Unterkunft mag im Sommer schön sein. Die Wohnung (Appartement 3) macht einen unpersönlichen und abgewohnten Eindruck. Bei Übernahme war das zusammen gewürfelte Besteck und das Geschirr teilweise verschmutzt. Im Bad ist es kalt und zugig, das Fenster defekt. Der Badezimmerschrank durchfeuchtet. Die Möbel (Lampe und Kleiderschrank) sind teilweise beschädigt. Auf der Matratze befinden sich Flecken! Am dritten Tag hat es an mehreren Stellen von der Decke getropft, wir haben das Wasser mit Töpfen aufgefangen. Wir wollten daraufhin die letzten beiden Tage stornieren, was unser Host abgelehnt hat. Es sei ein altes Haus, das könne schon passieren!! Wir haben 890 Euro für fünf Übernachtungen gezahlt, was überteuert ist. Wir haben uns ein Hotel gesucht. Eine Erstattung hat es nicht gegeben. Nie wieder.
• Mookhoek (10/5): Barbera guesthouse appts #3 awesome. - The apartment was so beautiful and accommodating. An old building with modern amenities. Central to everything I'm Haarlem, and to travel. The owners are so lovely and accommodating. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. It's a beautiful apartment, it's central to everything in Haarlem. Within 5 mins in every direction you have all amenities. So comfortable and felt like home.
• Joao (10/5): Was a wonderful experience spending one week in this apartment! - Was a wonderful experience spending one week in this apartment! The host was really available and concern with our comfort! Really recommend this apartment for families up to 4 persons. All family very satisfied!!! No negative points.
• Rienk (9/5): Comfortabel appartement voor een gezin of klein gezelschap in het hartje van Haarlem - De gastvrije ontvangst, fijne bedden en heerlijke douches
• Marily (10/5): We enjoyed our stay our host was very responsive and helpful. We had everything we needed and the location was perfect i - The location was wonderful, close to the center shops and restaurants. Easy access to public transportation. Everything you need is in walking distance. The building is a historic building lots of charm and quirky. Our host was wonderful and very responsive. We loved Haarlem and hope to return soon and will definitely book this property if available. The Dutch style stairs are not for everyone, I was a bit surprised but my family and I quickly adjusted.
• Sophie (10/5): -
• CARLA (9/5): -
• Ron (8/5): -
• Sheila (4/5): Wat teleurstellend - Locatie was heel goed. De sfeervolle foto’s komen niet overeen met de werkelijkheid. Het was kleiner en donkerder. Er was een heel klein plaatsje ipv een tuin. De slaapkamers waren klein. De slaapkamer boven was ongezellig en het bed lag oncomfortabel. Het gasfornuis in de keuken werkte niet.
• Irma (9/5): -
• Paolo (10/5): -
• Tiina (10/5): -
• Kristine (8/5): Location is excellent! Be aware ‘Apartment # 1’ is a STUDIO - My husband and I stayed a week in October 2025 in Apartment # 1 which is actually a studio (not a separate bedroom, the bed is in the living area). Communication was excellent before and during our stay. Address very easy to find. LOCATION was amazing. The best! Check in was easy, a coded lock box on the door and host will send you the code before arrival. Yes there are stairs. It’s Nederlands. It’s Europe. If you can’t step up stairs, don’t visit any country in Europe! We are late 60’s & early 70’s and actually enjoyed the extra steps up/down/up/down. Plus, to the ones complaining about unloading and/or carrying luggage…geez people, you are on a holiday. Not moving in. Really how much ‘stuff’ do you need to bring? Anyway back to the space. Very clean. Comfortable. We cooked in the spacious kitchen. Loved the dining table looking out over the street through the large windows. The old world charm is stunning. The studio bed is two singles pushed together for a double. We requested extra blankets and they were delivered promptly. The toilet room is small but efficient. The shower room has a heated towel bar, sink, wash machine and obviously a shower. Only negative was the water heater which supplies the shower only allowed for one quick shower at a tepid temperature then a pause and the next shower. No wasting water this way! On the other hand, the small water heater in the kitchen was extremely hot so it’s easy to hand wash dishes which is what we do. The host offers plenty of information to explore the town and surrounding areas. There are books to browse. A large rug near the sofa that allowed for us to do our yoga practice daily. There is a very small outdoor space. Just large enough for a small cafe table and two chairs. We didn’t use it as the weather was a bit chilly and damp this time of year. Do note that you will share the stairs and hallway with apartment # 2. We had a nice visit with one couple and their preteen son. I’m giving a lower score due to the lack of hot water and the cost. I feel the price was on the (very) high side for a studio. The description reads as follows - ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT - this is copied directly from the booking. I believe it should say STUDIO as there is not a separate bedroom. Price wise it was definitely overpriced for the small space. One-Bedroom Apartment = 1 queen bed Size: 377 ft
• Thomas (10/5): immer wieder -
• Claudine (9/5): - Location was great. The appartment was amazing- we loved the use of space and interior! Very stylish and modern. The terrace had extraorinary views of the cathedral! It was a bit tricky unloading our car as we arrived late and couldn't unload outside the property. But it didn't spoil our stay !
• Louis (9/5): Super ! - L’emplacement est idéal dans la ville de Haarlem : en plein centre ville mais à la fois très calme. /
• Cristiano (10/5): -
• Nadine (8/5): Gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, top Lage! Hier würde ich wieder wohnen wollen. - Perfekte Lage im Zentrum und in Bahnhofsnähe! Die Wohnung Nr. 2 ist geräumig, ruhig gelegen und verfügt über zwei Schlafzimmer mit je zwei Einzelbetten, die zusammengestellt werden können und einem separaten WC. Die tolle Terrasse ist ebenfalls ein grosses Plus, von hier aus hat man einen wunderbaren Blick auf die Kirche. Infos zur Stadt und den Ausflugsmöglichkeiten liegen auf dem Tisch. Das Smartphone kann mit dem vorhandenen USB C-Stecker an den Fernseher angeschlossen werden, so dass man abends auch mal Netflix und Co. schauen kann. Einchecken geht ebenfalls prima, kurz vorab bekommt man den Code für den Schlüssel-Safe. Leider fehlt in der Wohnung ein Föhn und auf meine Nachfrage per Mail wurde nicht reagiert (wir haben uns dann einen gekauft). Die Wohnung ist hellhörig und somit eher suboptimal, wenn man sich die Wohnung als Paare teilt - als Familie geht das jedoch. Dass die Türen quietschen, habe ich gemeldet, hoffentlich werden sie vor der nächsten Vermietung geschmiert. Vielleicht noch wichtig zu wissen: Da die Unterkunft mitten in der Stadt liegt, kann vor dem Haus nicht ein- oder ausladen. Doch vor dem Poller lässt es sich mit dem Auto gut halten, das Haus ist dann vielleicht noch 100 Meter entfernt. Leider hatten wir nur einen Schlüssel, konnten uns aber gut absprechen.
• Stuart (10/5): - There is no better locatiin possible. This is a 10 second walk to the square. 3 levels so plenty of space. The toilet room is tiny and a tall person I had to leave the door open
• Nicolò (10/5): - Lovely place, nice position next to the market square.
• Louis (10/5): - Very comfortable and spacious with lovely patio area. Fully equipped with all necessary amenities. Well positioned close to the main market square with abundance of restaurants and shops nearby.
• Garry (8/5): -
• Martina (9/5): -
• Stefanie (10/5): - Das Apartment ist der absolute Hammer. Nur Menschen mit einer Größe von über 1,80m müssen an manchen Stellen den Kopf einziehen. Riesiger Flur und sehr stilvolle Einrichtung. Alles sauber und eine tolle Betreuung. Danke für alles. Wir kommen wieder.
• Anouk (8/5): Heerlijke plek om te verblijven. - Ruim appartement vlakbij het station en in het centrum. Balkonnetje om even buiten te zitten.
• Viganò (10/5): -
• Johanna (9/5): - The apartment was really comfortable and nicely decorated. It felt bigger due to very high ceiling. Location is very central but still peaceful, easy to reach all attractions, restaurants and shops. Easy connection to Amsterdam and the Zandvoort beaches. Highly recommend! Lack of air conditioning can be tricky during summer. We were lucky as the weather was not that hot and fan was enough.
• Andy-----uk (10/5): - Absolutely lovely place with loads of character . Fantastic location. Very clean and modern.
• André (10/5): - Janieke ist definitiv die beste Gastgeberin, die ich jemals kennengelernt habe. Egal was unser Anliegen war, Sie hat sich jederzeit stets sofort darum gekümmert. Die Unterkunft als solches ist absolut top zu bewerten. Lage, Ausstattung, Terrasse alles mega! Haarlem ist obendrauf noch eine tolle lebendige Stadt.
• Lea (6/5): Excellent location - The location is perfect! Communication went well. The apartment is generous, but pretty used. A lick of paint, a new couch and couch pillows would be an improvement. There‘s noise (music) during the opening hours of the shop next door. Luckily the shop doesn‘t open before 11 a.m. There were lots of small flies in the bathroom. There‘s a spray to get rid of them, but it doesn‘t give a nice feeling.
• Aljesmi (9/5): It was a wonderful and lovely experience in Haarlem. - The apartment was spacious, the facilities was great and the location was wonderful. The host was cooperative and kind. It would be great to have an ironing facilities.
• Judy (8/5): A Dutch home experience - The good location and the responsive host. The check-in instructions were clear. The soft mattress and the steep staircase going up to the rooms. Not elderly friendly. The TV has no source.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent position, lots of room and excellent value for money. Lots of light came through the 3 large windows. Helpful local pamphlets.... even for me after 20 visits to Haarlem. Are 2 towels sufficient for a week?? Dishwasher pods would have been a bonus. I am used to the Dutch steep stairs... others might not be.
• Stoute (10/5): We had a great stay and will surely return. - The room was fantastic (spacious, clean and complete) and the location was simply perfect. Would be nice to have an umbrella :)
• Stephen (10/5): Home from home in Haarlem - The flat’s location in the old town, only 10 minutes’ walk from Haarlem railway station, is excellent. The photos are a fair reflection of the flat. It is bright and spacious, with an excellent shower. The kitchen/dining area and washing machine were very welcome, particularly as we had been travelling for some days and needed somewhere to settle and make our temporary home. Eating out in Haarlem for a week would have been expensive so we were glad the apartment gave us the choice of cooking and eating in. The balcony is a sun trap ( and also really handy for drying clothes!). We had a couple of unexpectedly cold and wet days; the central heating was welcome and surprisingly effective. If you want a soundproofed city break, with double glazing and a lift, you should probably keep looking. The stairs are typical for a Dutch house of this age and the windows are original. For a city centre apartment this is incredibly good value for money and some local noise should be expected. We loved trying to guess what the church bells were playing on an hourly basis. Two other points to note. I am 72 and managed the stairs with a large backpack. My wife would have felt completely safe if she had been staying in this area on her own. The hosts were friendly, helpful and in regular contact. Thoroughly recommended.
