We enjoyed the novelty of staying on Alex and Gabriela’s houseboat. The houseboat has everything that you need. You will be able to share your breakfast with swans and ducklings. When you arrive at the dock area, you might have second thoughts, but the location is an asset. You get the river view, yet you’re only a 5 minute walk from the clean and efficient Metro system. There is a variety of restaurants within walking distance. Gabriela was very responsive to our two requests. Be advised that the neighboring houseboats are very close.
