They thought she was loud (she was), somewhat poorly brought up (she wasn't), and a bit of a know-it-all (from time to time, yes, but not nearly as bad as Mrs. van Pels herself). There were also aspects of Anne's character they liked, too - it wasn't like they hated her.

Mr. Frank included Mr. van Pels in his planning almost from the beginning.
The Van Daans were the other family that lived with Anne Frank and her family in the Secret Annex.
The van Pels family (consisting of Herman, Auguste, and Peter) also hid with the Frank family during World War II. They shared the Secret Annex with the Franks and were discovered and arrested by the Nazis along with them in 1944.

Anne's mother, father and sister (Edith Frank, Otto Frank and Margot Frank), a dentist called Fritz Pfeffer (who is called Albert Dussel in the book), and the van Pels family: Auguste van Pels (called Petronella van Daan in the book), Hermann van Pels (Hermann van Daan) and Peter van Pels (Peter van Daan).
Anne Frank lived in the annex with her family: her parents, Otto and Edith Frank, and her sister, Margot. They were joined by another family, the Van Pels (Van Daan in Anne's diary), consisting of Hermann, Auguste, and their son Peter, as well as Fritz Pfeffer.
Anne Frank was living in hiding with her parents, Otto and Edith Frank, and her older sister, Margot. The Van Pels family (Hermann, Auguste, and Peter) and Fritz Pfeffer, often referred to as Mr. Dussel, also lived with them in the annex during the Holocaust.
Peter Van Pels was a boy who lived in "the secret annex" with Anne Frank and her family. Van Pels' father was Hermann Van Pels. He worked with Anne's father, so that was why the Franks' brought the Van Pels with them into their hiding place.
