Noordvest, Leiden
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Oude Singel sits right in the historic centre, with canals, cafés and the market square just steps away.

As the most beautiful city of cities, Leiden is at the top. There are beautiful old streets, the market and the town hall. I really love hearing that peculiar 'r', Leiden feels like home. And let them talk about what could be better, should be better and would be better. There is always something that could be better, but Leiden really, I love you!
