Quite a thrill staying on a houseboat. Very clean & well appointed, and well situated - there's a Metro and tram stop fairly close by. Would recommend. Amsterdam is great. Didn't have a duff meal (`Cafe Restaurant de Reiger' and the `Indonesian Kitchen' especially good). Book in advance online if you intend visiting the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and Ann Frank Huis, which are all worthwhile.
