Great location, super clean, helpful owner. We were surprised how comfy it was even though it's a relatively small space -- very well designed layout!

All in all, highly recommend it if you're looking for something unique, clean and quiet.

We had both rooms on this houseboat and highly recommend a stay. It is a unique accommodation and something typical for Amsterdam. The rooms are clean and well appointed. Everything you need is there. You can even get some simple breakfast items from The Albert Hein grocery store around the corner, and use the fridge and a coffee maker and tea to have a basic breakfast on the water. It is very nice. Beds are comfortable, bathroom is clean, towels provided, locks and key work well (very safe). The host lives on the other half of the boat, or so we think, so he is close if needed. The host communicated well up front and during our stay. He is strict with the many rules that there are, including the ones posted on little labels in the rooms. But this strictness also ensures you have a quiet and good stay. Late checkout was not possible, not even half an hour.

The only downside is that although the air conditioning itself is very quiet, the pump which removes the moisture from it, is very noisy and woke us up during the night in each room. It goes off every few minutes and it's noisy. In all practicality it was not possible to have the AC on during the night.
