Over the years, this neighbourhood has improved in my opinion. Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages. The Huygenspark neighbourhood is an extension of the notorious Schilderswijk district. But you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine. Accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague. Plenty of amenities; everything you need can be found in the neighbourhood.

About Huijgensstraat 1D, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €260,000 is 49% below the neighbourhood average of €509,353, but the flat is also 60% smaller than the average (45 m² vs 113 m²). Given the compact size and energy label F, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small apartment in this area.
The energy label is F, which is the second-lowest rating. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be higher than in a more efficient home. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older property.
Huygenspark is described by a resident as a green, quiet and accessible neighbourhood. The park itself was renovated recently and is vibrant. The area is well connected, with the train station a ten-minute walk away and the city centre easily reachable. Amenities are plentiful, with supermarkets and restaurants nearby.
The nearest train station is 0.6 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. The resident review mentions being quickly at the train station and on the tram towards Scheveningen or other parts of The Hague.
The floor area is 45 m², but without room count from the agent, it's not possible to say how many bedrooms or living spaces there are.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not provided, so it's not known if there is any private outdoor space.
