Unique experience in an amazing location! The houseboat is in a side canal just off the Amstel River and very near the "skinny bridge." It was a great base for exploring on foot, and we also found canal boat tours and bike rentals nearby, as well as grocery stores for provisions. The houseboat itself is just right, with everything we needed. It was especially nice to sit out on the deck in the early evening with drinks with all the activity going by on both the canal and the bridge above.
