The host is a very professional, pleasant and helpful. The rooms are cleaned daily, as well as towels changing. The village of Marken is a beautiful quiet place, one hour by bus from Amsterdam. Breakfast is plentiful, quality ingredients, nothing fancy but with sorts of food for everyone. The only drawback are 2 sets of narrow, winding, steepy stairs, but you get to use to it and the wonderful host is helpful with bringing your luggage to your room.
