It is a lovely experience to stay on a houseboat while in Amsterdam. We would highly recommend staying with Rinze and Simon. Rinze went out of his way to help us when I took a fall and I needed to go to the hospital soon after we arrived. Simon had an Uber there for us in five minutes. When we returned from the hospital, Rinze met us with two glasses of wine and we toasted our next three days in Amsterdam, which were amazing.
The apartment is very well laid out for a small space, and has everything you need for your own breakfast, including a cappuccino machine, a small refrigerator, and a microwave. The bed is a loft and very comfortable.I was surprised that even though the other apartment is right next to this one, we did not hear anything for the whole three days we were there. Well, we did hear the ducks quacking to be fed bread from outside our window, which was very cool.
You will not be disappointed staying here. It is an experience not to be missed in Amsterdam.
