This is a great location near the Nemo science museum and easy access to downtown. The host was great with communication, reaching out to figure out when we might arrive. The breakfast was also fantastic. The boat is exactly as described and other guests were respectful and quiet; however, if you are a light sleeper, footsteps and people coming in at a variety of times were notable. Two in our family slept fine, 1 ok, and 1 not much.
We absolutely loved this property! It’s a unique stay and so close to central Amsterdam. What stood out to us was the amazing staff who worked there. The boat is a family business and they were so helpful, knowledgable and generous.
The drinks and snacks were on an honesty basis and very reasonably priced and you pay at the end when you check out. The showers and toilets were clean and surprisingly good.
We travelled for three weeks and this was one of our favourite places to stay for the whole trip; we can’t recommend highly enough!
Great staff and a fun place to stay in a fun city. On a boat so of course the quarters are quite small but in amsterdam you shouldn’t be in your room too much anyway. Great morning spread and the lofi jazz playing is always a plus for me.

Could do with a little updating but the service, location and staff make it all worth while and a great experience.
The Guy that ran the hostel was brilliant. Made you feel at home and was very easy going. The location was perfect. Definately value for money. My friend who is 6ft 1 inch managed to fit into the bottom bunk so don't be put of by the pictures.
A 10 minute walk from centraal Station and the city centre. Located on the piers outside the Science Museum (NEMO)
Christian was the perfect host, friendly and helpful.
Although the rooms are VERY small the boat boasts plenty of character that makes up for this. Showers and toilets (shared) are clean and well kept and breakfast (continental style) certainly sets you up for the day.
Perfect location by Centraal Station -Amsterdam! Staff was ver attentive; fun experience staying on board a ship. Quarters were very small, but clean. Central location made up for that, though.

Staff very helpful . Close to Amsterdam Central. We left our luggage after check out for few hours.
The place is easy to find. The staff is very friendly and help you to find places in Town. It's a bit noisy ( the wall are thin) but they fo their best to keep it calm.
For this type of accomondation it was better than expected. The personal service was excellent as well as the breakfast, made with love and care. Walking distance from rail way station and a variaty of activities (February).

Das Zimmer war zu klein für vier Personen
Luft mangel im Raum
Frühstück war ok
Das Deck des Hausbootes ist wunderschön und man konnte dort sehr gut den Tag beginnen bzw. ausklingen lassen. Auch wenn es (leider) viele Stolperfallen gab, empfanden wir das Hausboot als super Alternative zu Hostels, da es nicht nur die perfekte Lage, sondern auch super nettes Personal hatte. Wir würden jeder Zeit wieder dort übernachten.
Super accueil, explications claires et complètes, contact facile.
Tout était tel qu'indiqué dans la description et les consignes sont respectées par tous.
Le personel est disponible, volontaire et plein de bons conseils !
Super expérience, ne pas hésiter à y faire un tour !

Central und romantisch
Tommy ist ein toller Gastgeber. Die Betten sind klein, aber was erwartet man auch von Kojen!Die Stimmung an Bord und die Umgebung und die zentrale Lage, die ein Verkehrsticket Erst überflüssig machen, sind ausschlaggebend. Das Frühstück ist phänomenal!!!!
