It was our first experience with airbnb as we were the first guests in their lovely houseboat recently bought and renovated. That was an awesome experience and can't thank enough Mary Ann for it. Very well located just four bus stops from central station and literally across the bus stop. It could not be more convenient . As our host was travelling abroad, a neighbor was waiting for us on the houseboat. Mary Ann has a very good taste and the living room is extremely charming with design and confortable furnitures. The heating ( which I was worried for) was working very efficiently and you could regulate very precisely the temperature. A beautiful tulips bouquet ( it was tulip day!) was waiting for us. It was not our first time in Amsterdam but we were so well at her place we could hardly get out and when we had a long walk on a sunny Sunday , we were eager to come back to enjoy the terrace on the boat , with a good beer just watching boats sailing by. At first, you may be surprised by the noise of the tram over the bridge and then you get used to it .
We were feeling as in a friends house and we'll come back certainly if we can. I can highly recommend Mary Ann houseboat.
