My daughter and I had the WONDERFUL PLEASURE of staying at the LOVELY "Bed and Boat Amsterdam" for 3 days this past week! This was one of the COOLEST "adventures" we have ever had traveling! We booked this place and we just didn't know what to expect - we were DELIGHTED from the minute we opened the door and went in - it is ADORABLE! It is decorated BEAUTIFULLY - it is BRIGHT, CHEERFUL, and it has everything you need to be able to cook, etc. Of course, the most AWESOME thing (BESIDES THE WONDERFUL OWNERS, Lone and Eric, who live next door) is the LOCATION - it is just INCREDIBLE to think that you are actually STAYING ON A CANAL IN AMSTERDAM! As you look around from the deck and windows and you see the BEAUTIFUL views of houseboats all around and the water - you just think, "This is INCREDIBLE - I can't believe we're staying here!" There are two bikes that go along with the loft and as Lone says, it is a short walk or ride into the city. There are bike paths and walkways all over the place. Lone gave us many TERRIFIC recommendations of places to go and things to do - she even arranged for a personal guide for us at the Rijksmuseum - Aronaut was AMAZING! We spent many happy hours exploring the city on bike and on foot - and we had so much fun! One of the things we treasure about this whole experience was getting to interact with Lone and Eric. It is a whole different experience than staying in a hotel! They are TERRIFIC hosts and such nice people - so KIND and HELPFUL! We had a GREAT TIME and we made many WONDERFUL memories that we will have for a LONG TIME.... WE LOVED THE BED AND BOAT AMSTERDAM, and you will, too!!!!!
