    Edwin was a great host, very approachable and very accommodating for check in and check out. Gave us great directions to nearby restaurants and shops. Ferry ride to central station and the sights in Amsterdam was very easy to do. Kitchen was well stocked. Unfortunately the nearby laundromat was not open during our stay. Great for two couples

    This was such a charming property conveniently located near the train station with access to a ferry. It was so nice to be close to that area while also in a more unique setting. Edwin was such a fantastic host. I communicated with him several times leading up to our arrival, and he always responded promptly. He also provided many tips for our brief stay. Upon our arrival, he also took the time to give us some more information about Amsterdam's layout. He truly appreciated his efforts.

    Excellent little apartment. My only recommendations would be to have screens on the back door to prevent mosquitos and another fan. A small microwave would have been nice but not necessary. I would recommend and stay there again.

    Great place to stay! 10min walk from downtown. The outdoor patio was a great space to enjoy while there. Edwin was super friendly and gave us some great tips on where to go and even a little history on the area. One of the first things you should know is that this is a carved out space of the boat house, it is not a house on its own. If you like to get rest during the day(like we tried), there was a lot of noise from a neighbor doing construction and on another night while in the bedroom around 8pm you can hear a full conversation being had from the room upstairs which kept me from getting rest. There are no TVs on the property and it did feel very small, trying to get 4 luggages packed before leaving was a Challenge as you barely had enough floor or tablebspace to lay things out. This is not a place for people who don't like tight quarters. Another thing that seemed like a miss was that we were only provided 2 rolls of TP for a group of 4 for 2 nights which is just annoying that you have to go out and find TP somewhere because host didn't provide enough. They did provide shampoo and one set of towels we had to reuse throughout the stay. Overall I'd say this is ok but I'm not sure it's made entirely clear by the property description that you are not in a house on its own, you are sharing a house boat with its own entrance and closed off living space and kitchen.

    We arrived in Amsterdam as the final leg of a 17 day European vacation. Check in and out was easy, Edwin was a wealth of info and the home is spotless. We happened to be there one day that the weather was horrible - cold, rain and VERY high winds,,,a perfect crash day for us to stay inside and rest. Comfy beds. Walking distance from the central train station and a grocery store nearby.

    Very comfortable stay on a modern house boat- highly recommended. The rooms are cosy and we had all we needed with some lovely personal touches. There was even an Christmas tree for us. Edwin was a great host and very considerate with good communication. The location is good and the free ferry from the Central Station works really well- we never waited more than a minute or two.

    The boat itself is great for a cozy stay. It’s nice and warm and in great condition. There are 4 single beds that are together to essentially create 2 doubles so it’s a bit cozy if you’re sharing with friends. The location is perfect as it’s just about a 10min walk from the free 24/7 ferry into the centre. Theres also plenty to see on the north side of the river. Would highly recommend this stay.

    A two bedroom apartment in a houseboat. Newly renovated, with the benefit of a small kitchen. A quiet location, only a quick ferry ride from downtown. Highly recommended for those wanting a unique experience.

    Overall this was a pleasant stay. This is a cozy two-bedroom houseboat. One bedroom has a daybed and the other room is two twin beds which can be pushed together. Compact but well-equipped kitchen, suitable for small meals but not meant for serious meal preparation. Beds were comfy. Edwin was easy to reach while we were there. A couple of things to know - the location is both a plus (quiet, nice neighborhood) and a minus (the walking to and from the ferry to get to central station got a little old). You cannot control the temperature inside the unit - the control is on Edwin's side. It's not the kind of place you're going to linger unless you're there in summer and can sit outside - there's really only one chair to sit and read in - there's plenty of seating in the kitchen, though, so comfortable for eating. All in all, a good rental and a good value for what's available in Amsterdam.

    With my husband and our 2 children (3 and 5 years old), we enjoyed very much this houseboat. It's clean, with the necessary equipments and it's pleasant to be close to water. We rent bikes and that way the location was perfect: with the ferries you are quickly in the center and at the same time you're not far from nice places like NDSM. The communication with Edwin was perfect and he cares about giving good tips and information. We recommand this place!

    We had a great stay at this property. The property was exactly as advertised and was just right for three people. It certainly was close to the center of Amsterdam but far enough to be quiet. I would certainly stay here again.

    Property is in transition. Will b. Lovely when rooms, garden and deck are complete. Staying on this side of Amsterdam and taking the ferry to city center allowed us to see a part of the city that we would not have been exposed to on the other side of the river.

    We had a great stay, with lots of excellent assistance and communications from Edwin. This is a unique way to enjoy Amsterdam, close to this beautiful city (a free ferry ride right to Centraal station is 10 mins walk/ 2 mins cycle), but also a peaceful spot close to lovely countryside. We hired bikes and rode out through fields to villages, then straight onto the very regular ferry and into the city... the place is cosy, well appointed. bedrooms are small but fine for family of four for a short stay. loved it, and Edwin was super helpful.

    Staying on this houseboat was a unique and relaxing experience, offering beautiful canal views and a peaceful atmosphere. The location was ideal—close to the city center yet quiet enough to enjoy some tranquility. The hosts were very friendly and provided great local tips, making our visit even better.

    THIS IS A CENTRAL PLACED HEAVEN THAT AT THE SAME TIME GIVES YOU A QUIET PLACE TO WITHDRAW TO AFTER A BUZY DAY IN THE STREETS OF AMSTERDAM. THE SERVICE FROM THE LANDLORD IS FANTASTIC, AND SO IS THE COMMUNICATION. THE PLACE WAS CLEAN WITH EVERYTHING WE NEEDED FOR THE STAY. DRINKING OUR MORNING COFFE/TEA ON THE FLOATING TERRACE WAS JUST A PERFECT START ON OUR DAYS IN AMSTERDAM. OR A GLAS OF WINE IN THE EVENINGS. WE DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.
