Although this houseboat is far from central Amsterdam, we still loved the location. After a full day exploring the busy city it was very nice to retreat to the quiet neighborhood that this houseboat is located. The houseboat itself was beautiful and has everything you need. There is nothing quite like sitting on the patio in the morning, enjoying an espresso and waving at the boats as they drift by.
The host was great! She greeted us when we arrived and gave us many suggestions on nearby restaurants and bike paths to take to the city (the houseboat comes with the use of 2 bikes).
Overall, I would definitely suggest staying here, but anyone with mobility issues needs to be careful as the stairs to the bedroom are quite steep.
