Staying in Henk’s houseboat is definitely an experience I will not forget. The house itself is very homely, comfortable and overall clean.
The houseboat is located in Amsterdam Noord, which is 15 minutes by bicycle and a ferry ride from the main streets. This is perfect for travelers looking to experience the hustle and bustle of the main city, while still having a nice place to relax after a long day.
The houseboat includes 2 terraces, one looks out to a beautiful canal and the other to an amazing garden.
The communication with Henk was flawless, he was responsive to any question and he even let us check in early which was incredibly nice of him to do.
In addition, the houseboat is Henk’s actual home so it does feel like one, don’t expect to come to a hotel where everything is new and extremely clean.
Cleanliness is a big issue for my girlfriend and I’m happy to say she was quite pleased overall even if it is not hotel standards.
In conclusion, I cannot recommend this place enough, Henk is great and I will definitely be checking his availability first if I ever end up in Amsterdam again.
Thank you for a wonderful stay Henk!
