Henk's houseboat was magical. It was a very special place and an experience we will always remember. It's places like Henk's which make Airbnb such a worthy travel companion. Henk was a great host and although we never got to meet him, he was easy to get in touch with and ensured all was perfectly set up for us.
The houseboat is close enough to everything, but far enough away to make you feel part of the city beyond the usual tourist areas. Ferry access is simple and you can be in the center of the action in less than 20 minutes either biking or taking the bus. The bike ride to and from downtown (especially the part of the Noord neighbourhood) was beautiful and a great way to start and end our days.
The houseboat itself was perfectly equipped, well desiged and very charming. It has it's own vibe which we found very unique and special.
The morning coffee on the dock and the late night cap were extra enjoyable because of the surroudnings. We hope to return one day soon.
Thank-you Henk!
