This has to be far and away so much better than staying in any hotel or hostel in town.
It's cute, quirky, not much dearer than a central hotel.
The location is about 20 mins walk from all the main attractions in Amsterdam. Or you can hop on the tram stops that are close by.
I'd recommend getting a multi day tram pass and using google maps to tell you which one to get, when and where.
The ship was warm, even in minus 2 outside and has a thermostat for easy control.
In the summer it would be most pleasant to sit outside on the deck. We went in winter though.
It was everything it promised to be.
Thank you Peter.
