Michiel's houseboat is located less than a 10 minute walk to Rembrandt Square, which seems to be the beginning of the action and about 20 mins from Centraal Station. The houseboat was lovely - clean and well presented, on a quiet, but interesting part of the canal (particularly all the tour boats!) Additional bonus: 2 super friendly cats that really love a bit of human interaction - a pleasant surprise indeed. Michiel was an awesome host, would certainly recommend and would have no doubt about rebooking should I ever get the chance!
