We had a nice stay at the nicely done up comfortable houseboat. Frans is a very obliging host. He not just prepared the kitchen with coffee, sweets, tea, sparkling wine and so on (there were also pretty flowers!), he also efforded my boyfriend to watch soccer as he borrowed hin a computer.
The boat is not in the inner city, but you can borrow bikes or use the train. Nearby you can find a supermarket and some restaurants. Frans has collectet a lot of infomation (maps, Amsterdam guides an so on) in different languages for his guests. The boat is clean and equipped with everything you might need even on a longer stay.
