Stijn's boat was my favourite airbnb to date - in every regard. First, the boat itself is charismatic beyond description; a wonderful blend of historical maritime nuggets and cosy, modern comforts.
And speaking of cosiness, despite staying on a cold December weekend, the boat was a warm haven to return back to after a day exploring. With the city on your doorstep, it takes mere minutes to be right in the heart of the action, and yet being moored out in the water is surprisingly tranquil. At night the surroundings are silent, while during the day it feels like a little oasis of calm as you sit in the wheelhouse and watch the bustle of the city that surrounds you.
Stijn as a host was everything you could hope for. Easy to arrange arrival details with, friendly, communicative and flexible. Top marks for a truly memorable city break.
