We arrived and everything was already better than we had expected. The houseboat is a seven minute walk from the Central Station and a ten minute walk from the Dam Square. The pictures don't do this boat justice. It is a lot bigger than it looks in photos, with lots of space. The boat was warmer than i expected and the bathroom was heated! The SmartTV was large with good quality and we were allowed to use their Netflix account. In general we were allowed to use almost everything. Nikita and his wife were very warm and welcoming people, and check in and out was smooth. Communication was great. THERE IS ALWAYS HOT WATER IN THE SHOWER it is SO GREAT. I went with my friend and boyfriend, and sleeping-wise there was no problem whatsoever. In the living room there is a sofa that can turn into bed and a seperate room with a bed as well, which is where my boyfriend and i slept. We were permitted to smoke inside with the door and windows open, which was very helpful as it was cold outside (we went mid December). There is no place or closet to put your clothes, personally it didn't bother us, there was plenty of space to put our bags. All in all we had an amazing time and i would definitely consider booking this houseboat again! It just made the trip a lot more special and fun. It was close to everything and a much more cheap, independant and comfortable way to stay in Amsterdam than a hotel. Definitely recommend!!!
