    Unusual location though urgent maintenance is needed to make this a perfect stay
    Unusual property, Excellent location, close to a wide range of great restaurants, however was surprisingly quiet at night. Was beautiful staying on the canal, seeing Amsterdam at all times of the day, including daily visits from a flock of swans!
    While we loved our stay, too many things were faulty or not working correctly and really appeared to be long term issues that should have been rectified - the fridge did not chill properly (so food went mouldy quickly), the extractor fan in the bathroom was broken, the main window needed a blind to stop the room turning into a furnace every afternoon and the toilet seat was broken (this was reported by others on a previous review).

    lovely to stay on a house boat, but much smaller than it looked in the photos. fine for a free days break but would not
    the view of the river was great, excellent local restaurants, walking distance to the centre.
    no sink in the bathroom meant that there were no hand or face washing facilities other than the kitchen sink, made shaving difficult. very small sitting area. broken toilet seat.

    Best stay in Amsterdam ever!
    Everything was absolutely perfect. You cannot beat this view. Incredible comfortable sleep too! All you need and more! Really nice few touches I've never seen anywhere else...like having tampons if needed and birthday candles! VERY THOUGHTFUL HOST! Definitely coming back to this one!
    There is nothing not to like there, it's absolutely incredible

    Bad
    horrible awful from start to end!!!
    nothing
    where to start? Disaster from start to finish!! the people who ran the accommodation were soo so so so rude rude!! The place was tiny, stuffy, dirty (tons of spiders). i asked if I could leave a day early at the start and they said sure. i tried to request a change. they never answered. The Wi-Fi never worked! I kept complaining and they never answered. It looks nice but ur in a giant fish tank for everyone to see! Zero privacy! would be nice if they had curtains but nope! Typical Dutch, cheap and stingy!! It was sooo so hot and stuffy!! There were fans downstairs and they hardly did any good. Dont fall for the romance of a houseboat. U get only a tiny tiny tiny sliver of a larger houseboat!!!

    Cant Beat the view. It's more a 1 bedroom than studio. GREAT for couples.
    A little warm (july). Wish it had a sink in bath.

    Lovely boat to stay on while visiting Amsterdam
    The view from the boat was great and it is was lovely to have a different experience and actually be staying on the canal. It is a little bit out of the centre of Amsterdam but public transport is close by and gets you there quickly. The bed was comfy and the boat had everything you needed for a short stay.
    No complaints

    Fantastic place. It made our stay!
    Beautiful place. Very stylish and well equipped. It made our stay. If I ever come back I dont want to stay anywehre else!
    On booking it should say that the terrace is not available with the studio apartments. We did not care at all but it is slightly confusing.
