Not as pleasant as we had hoped for

We wanted to experience staying on s house boat but will never do it again. It took us over an hour getting into the house with their Nukki app & no one responded to our calls for help. During the entire 3 day stay, we were unable to contact anyone. All the stairs were extremely steep so that for foot to stay on step, you had to walk sideways. The inside was clean enough but the outside decks were extremely dirty & unkept…dead unattended foliage, broken glass & duck droppings all over. Also, the outdoor furniture were dirty & had standing water in seats

Hausboot

Amsterdam, Hausboot...., ist schon eine schöne Vorstellung. Doch wenn man ankommt und ein Boot vorfindet, wo du das Gefühl hast das der letzte Bewohner vor 5 Minuten das Boot verlassen hat und eine Reinigung aus zeitlichen Gründen nicht mehr möglich war, ist die Freude schnell vergangen! Dann kommt noch dazu, dass nach 2 Tagen zwar die Handtücher gewechselt wurden, aber für Reinigung des Badezimmer hat es dann auch nicht gereicht. Zumal selbst das eher den Anschein gehabt hat, dass jemand nur neugierig war, was dort passiert. Gerne würde ich das Hausboot weiterempfehlen, doch dafür müsste der Eigentümer erstmal eine Sanierung vornehmen.

Canal boat experience

Booked this for a weekend as husband going to a conference. Tired of staying in expensive hotels we thought we would try a houseboat. The photos on the website were probably quite old as the property was tired: dirty grouting in the bathroom and tired looking sofa. It would be so much better if there were not wires crisscrossing lights etc everywhere. It is also next to a main road and a popular bar which were not mentioned. Having said that the novelty of staying in a boathouse beats overpriced hotels. The shower works and the bed was comfortable. Watching the world go by and feeding the moorhens from the outside platform was great. The boat was well sound proof so the noise from the bar didn’t disturb us much. All in all a good experience and would recommend - given the reasonable rate.

Amsterdam Houseboat

A very unique experience. The houseboat was comfortable and didn’t lack for any amenities. The location was perfect. Excellent restaurants less than 10 minute walk Museums and markets an easy 30 minute walk or a few minutes by Uber. Highly recommend this property.
