If you are familiar with Amsterdam, this is a great value. Twice as big as any budget hotel accomodation, plus a priceless canal location. It is unique but very comfortable. It is a boat, however, so it is different in a good way.
Trams are really close to anywhere in Amsterdam within ten minutes. Hosts respect privacy but are available if needed. I loved my stay and would say you would be very lucky to stay on this boat.
