It was an immersive and enjoyable stay at Lydia's Houseboat when my wife and I were in Amsterdam. Wished we had spent more days in her Houseboat - it was great waking up in the morning and sitting up on the deck of the Houseboat people-watching and enjoying the waterfront view.

The room itself (very homely and comfy) is fully equipped with all the daily amenities and kitchen necessities (kindly provided by Lydia and her boyfriend Chookie). There is also a CD / DVD player + TV for your entertainment in case you decide not to go around the city exploring. Lydia also provided a bottle of red wine and local Dutch cookies when we mentioned that it was our wedding anniversary!

The location of the Houseboat is great, close to the city central (a short 5-10 min walk) and we took the opportunity to visit the Flower Market after an enjoyable walk.

Lydia and her boyfriend are great hosts - picked us up from Amsterdam Centraal and walked us back to the Houseboat - shared with us good locations around the Houseboat on where to have fun, eat and enjoy ;-)

Overall a great experience! Highly recommend it.
