Aart went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. He is a friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiastic Amsterdamer which made our stay fun and productive. The space is bright and comfortable. It has an open floor plan with a tucked away sleeping space and a separate sleeper couch. We fit comfortably as a family of four (with 2 small children). There were many useful perks including bikes, an underground parking space, great wifi connection, a small fridge, electric teapot and convection oven. As for staying on a floating house, we found it calming and enjoyed the glimpses of the lake surrounding us. The neighborhood is relaxing and nearby is a shopping center with grocery, bookstore, cafe, bakery, etc. A train, bike ride or car ride into the city center takes 15-30 minutes. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend to friends and family!
