Highly recommend staying in Friedrich's beautiful boat 'Rosita'. It was a great place to stay as a couple looking to explore the city for the first time. The boat's location was central enough to be able to walk to the city centre or down the scenic canal routes and, importantly, the area was also very quiet and peaceful. The boat itself was clean, comfortable and was more than big enough for two people. It had all the necessities: heating, a small kitchen, towels, hair dryer etc - and Friedrich gave us some stroopwaffels! Friedrich was a brilliant host. He was there to greet us when arriving, explaining how everything worked and gave us tips on where to eat and visit. Amsterdam is a great city - lots of amazing art galleries and museums (we advise getting a Museum Card to save money if attending lots of them.) We will definitely come back! Thanks Friedrich.
