Flip was a great host! He accommodated us coming early and leaving early and it was so helpful! The breakfast he served was delicious and well thought out. The houseboat itself was lovely. We went in September and be aware that there are a lot of spiders around that time in Amsterdam but they are harmless (coming from someone who hates spiders) and none were inside the houseboat. The shower was better than I expected for a houseboat and was very refreshing with good water pressure. The toilet space is small but to be expected for a boat. The location is perfect. Super close to a bus stop and the bus system in Amsterdam is efficient. The bikes provided by Flip makes you feel like a real local. There is a small pier so that the houseboat feels more private and isolated while still being close to the main road and I loved that. Overall, an excellent stay and I highly recommend this place.
