We stayed for two nights in the houseboat and it was wonderful, we really had a splendid time! The houseboat is as described and for us a unusual and exciting place to stay. We found it easy to get around Amsterdam with a tram and bus route about a 5 minute walk away. Overall a great break which was made even better by our stay in the houseboat.
