The Nova Houseboat is a stylish and tidy option. The houseboat pictured is the front, and the back half or so comprises the available rental. The rooms were comfortable, and the amenities met all our needs. The roof deck is a lovely place to socialize or rest. Of special note— the houseboat is near a lively and well used lock system enabling boats to move from a larger waterway into the smaller channels that lead to Amsterdam central. We loved to see the parade or boats of every description moving smartly through on the way to adventure.
I do suggest renting bikes if you plan to go any distance as those on offer are awkward.
