We had a delightful stay on the boat. The accommodation was comfortable, spacious, private and quiet -- and our host was very gracious. The location is extremely convenient to the Central Station (three stops on tram line 26) and to Tram 7 (a block away), which circles through the city along the outmost semi-circular canal (Singelgracht), stopping at the Rijksmuseum and other key locations. There are several grocery stores within a 2-minute walk. It's a lovely, very family-oriented corner of the city, with great views across the IJ. It's an especially good location for architects who are interested in seeing how the city is transforming its former docklands. We loved coming "home" to the boat at the end of every day.
