Breakfast was so tasty! Freshly baked bread and real eggs every morning. The staff was uber nice and helped us feel comfortable even with late check-in. Cant beat location too, easily walkable to all parts of the city, even easier with a bike!

“loved the idea of staying on a boat in Amsterdam. the boat was bigger than I thought and the rooms had everything we needed. I was worried they may be too small or smell weird or even move around too much but literally felt like I was in a hotel...” - Jasonny
