Houseboat Trijntje is on one of the central canals of Amsterdam, you can walk to most of the sights, and there is a Metro station 2 minutes away. Despite being so central, with shops and bars round the corner, the location itself is pretty quiet. The boat has everything you need for 2, including a kitchen. In good weather, you can sit on deck and watch the world go by. Mark was a great host, very responsive.
