Loved Amsterdam! Impressions about new city start and end with place to stay. We are happy we have chosen Derk's houseboat for our stay. It was inviting and cozy. Our family of 3 - parents and 18 year old son - felt very comfortable. Derk met us at the boat when we arrived, showed how everything works (surprisingly, no different than in a house or an apartment). The location is outstanding - 10 min walk to museums in one direction, and to Rembrandt Square and Red Light District in opposite direction. Derk showed us places of interest and explained how to get there. All-in-all, wonderful experience! Thanks again Derk!
