It was fun to stay in this houseboat location. One morning we opened the window and fed a duck that was right there in the canal, looking for a handout. Barbara made arrangements to be there when we got in at 11 am so we could drop our luggage. We didn't see her much, but she provided her phone number for us to call if we needed anything. The accommodations were very clean and had everything we needed. The area was quiet and felt safe. It was about 10 min. walk to either of 2 tram stations.
