Disappointed for the money as the property was dated, lacked comfort in the sitting area and the kitchen fell well short

6.0

Great location and good communication with host

− Dated. Heating wasn’t working throughout the property. No oven or hob in the kitchen, just a microwave.

10.0

Great location and unique experience to sleep in a houseboat on the canal. Plenty of space with all conveniences included. Easy access to city centre with museums and Vondelpark nearby. Would highly recommend!

Wir waren als Familie (2 Erwachsene und 2 Kinder) einige Nächte im Amsterdam HouseBoat und hatten eine tolle Zeit! Alles war wie beschrieben, sehr ruhig und die Betten waren perfekt – wir haben wunderbar geschlafen. Waschmaschine und Trockner sind vorhanden, allerdings wussten wir nicht, ob wir diese benutzen durften. Schade, dass es keine Terrasse oder Sitzmöglichkeiten vor dem HouseBoat gibt. Bei mehreren Nächten wären zwischendurch frische Handtücher und eine Müllentsorgung schön gewesen. Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden und würden jederzeit wiederkommen! 😊🚤
