In my cozy house in a residential green area in Almere ( 30 min from Amsterdam) I am renting out 3 guestrooms for longer stay. ( minimum stay one week) If you need a place to feel at home for work, study or apprenticeship you are more then welcome to stay with me. I prefer minimum stays from 1 month up to 1 year. One room is permanently occupied by a young man from East Germany, the other 2 rooms have different guests for different duration of time. I live downstairs and have my own bathroom. We share the kitchen and the guests upstairs have access to a large roof terrace with small (extra) kitchen. You will have your own tv in your room, WiFi is strong throughout the whole house. Supermarket and bus stop near by. Train station 13 minutes on foot and city center of Almere 20 min walking distance.
Please be aware that I have a complete non smoking policy, smoking also not allowed outside on the terrace. Also I would like to get some advanced payment, as I mostly only accept long stay booking for 1 month or more.

Mari-lou is an interesting person to get to know, as well as a kind, welcoming host. Plenty of amenities, and a great environment.
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
