Derk's houseboat is the absolute best place to stay in Amsterdam. There's no better way to experience the city than by staying on the end of a quiet canal in a great area, surrounded by restaurants and walking distance to the museums. The houseboat is spacious and comes with all the comforts of home with the added addition of being able to sit up on deck and take in the canal life. Derk was a great host, going over the quirks of the accommodations and surrounding area with us. Can't wait to come back to Amsterdam and stay here again.
