Staying on a houseboat was an experience. One I would definitely recommend. We had a bit of a storm come in on our last night and you could feel the boat moving, which I enjoyed. Overall, the place was well worth being a bit out of the main city center. It was really no issue walking up the street and catching the tram. We drove from Belgium and were lucky to find they had parking right across the street for €6.50 for two nights (only able to access your car during the day). Not only were the accommodations great, Helga had stocked orange juice and rolls with butter/jam. It was great having a few things for breakfast or a snack. Would stay again.
