Frans was a wonderful host. He picked us up from the airport, and unfortunately we had major issues with our flight and he waited an hour for us at the airport! The houseboat was very clean and comfortable. It had all the amenities you would need and he did a great job of explaining everything to us. There are lots of resources in the houseboat to help you navigate Amsterdam, but Frans also stays directly beside the houseboat. It was reassuring knowing he was there in case we needed anything. Even though it rained during our short stay, we loved the location. It's easy access to the tram and to a grocery store, but it is away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's a beautiful and serene place. When we left, Frans gave us an adorable souvenir. We accidentally left our converter charger at the houseboat, and he rushed it to us while we were waiting on our tram. Great host, great place, and I highly recommend it.
