We really enjoyed our stay on the houseboat. It is in a great location. It is about a 10 minute walk to the metro train station and it was really easy to catch a train to Central Station in the downtown area of Amsterdam and back.
Getting the key to the houseboat was easy with the instructions for the lockbox. We appreciated the little touches such as there were coffee pods and a coffee machine, a kettle to boil water and a hair dryer available to us. It was lovely sitting on the balcony having breakfast in the morning.
Our host Sven was very responsive and staying on the houseboat was a memorable experience.
