Appartement - Hauseboot in Amsterdam

I can really recommend this appartment. It is really nicely set and close to cafés and a wonderful cinema. The kitchen is very helpful and you get everything at a store nearby.
The hosts are the bests you could imagine. If you got anything to query, they are going to solve the problem as soon as possible.
If you're looking for a lovely place to spend your holiday in Amsterdam: you've already found it!

Had a great time and found the apartment comfortable and very functional. It was rainy and the apartment, probably like most in central Amsterdam, had very few windows so there is a bit of a cave like feel to the place. The property owners were good and all of the transactions were easy and as expected.

This was our 3rd stay in Amsterdam, so have become custom to very small rooms. However, we were very surprised at the size of this apartment, great space. It was very clean and modern, with all gadgets available.
It is not quite in the centre, but the metro staion is about 50 metres from the front door, and costs less than 3 Euros to get to central station, even catching a cab back late at night was only 8 Euros.
As we were so near to the centre we didn't really look around the immediate area apart from visiting the local supermarket just around the corner, but it seemed quite at night, even with the ambulance station being a couple of doors down.
We visited late October and the apartment was lovely and warm, host was very helpful and friendly. We would definately recomment this apartment and will be booking again if we return to Amsterdam.

Hi all, due to the suggestions of a guest we recently changed the entrance of the appartment, there is now a private entrance, and plenty of extra ventilation opportunities. We believe this will add to your comfort an pleasurable stay in our wonderful city! We look forward to be your host, best of regards, Frank and Thea

hi, the apartment is really good in equipment, stile/design and situation. (10 minutes walking to the center)
You have everything that you can need, everything per cook, wifi, tv, etc....
The only problem that we see in that apartment, is doesn't have any window...no sun, no fresh air...
Maybe they should think to have the possibiblity to open the front window...now is not possible...
per the rest was great.....

The apartment was very comfortable and well equipped bonito.muy had everything necesitaba.y also the apartment was always with the heating at a comfortable temperature with the cold that Amsterdam is greatly appreciated.
and the owner was very friendly. I have no complaints.

I stayed here for 8 nights in October and it was perfect for what I needed.
As noted in the description the kitchen is particualry good and well kitted out. I used the kitchen virtually everyday after shopping at the Albert Heijn supermarket down the road (about a 4/5 minute walk.
It's very well located - only a 10/15 minute walk from Waterlooplein/Rembrandtplein and literally opposite a metro stattion (Weesperplein).
There a decent cafe next door but I didn't eat there. There is another bar on the other end of the street which seemed busy but again didn't eat there.
Would stay there again.

We spent a great time in this apt, perfect position close to waterloo plein, very clean and Frank was really a special person!

My wife and I spent 5 lovely days in Amsterdam 5/17-22, 2010. Frank Honig, the owner (didn't get a chance to meet Thea) was great. Our train arrived late, close to midnight, but he let us in and gave us the tour of the apartment. The apartment itself was charming, very clean and servicable. Kitchen well supplied, bed very comfortable, neighborhood quiet in spite of ambulance garage next door! They must wait until they're around the block to turn on the sireen because we were never woken up! Nice cafe next door and grocery store 2 blocks away. Great area of town, easy to walk everywhere.
Clothes washer was not working when we were there, but no worries, Frank did our laundry and left it folded outsidde our door-fantatstic!
Frank has a reliable car service which we used to get to Schiphol airport. Marcel arrived on time at 5:30am in a s new Audi S8 and we were there in under 20 minutes.
We would definitely stay here again - Thanks Frank!!!!

*Sorry not my computer and it doesn't have spell check. I am a horrible speller, sorry*
So the aptartment was very clean and had all one would need (full kitchen, large bathroom, TV, bed, and the most comfortable cot I have slept on). It is just outside, what I would call, the city "center." So it is a quiet get away from the hustle and bustle; while an easy walk to all the attractions.
Our flight was late in getting in, yet the owner made himself available to make sure we could check in and get the key.
It was so nice that we had a couple friends from Amsterdam come over for dinner our last night.
This is where I will stay my next visit.

The apartment AS25 is perfect for a couple, who likes to live in the city centre of Amsterdam. You don't need any vehicule, because you can reach all sightseeing points in A'dam by foot. We loved to stay in this apartment! It is spacious, has a great kitchen, the bed is comfortable, it has a nice bathroom etc. Our hosts were very nice and we felt really welcome!

Hi everybody !!
First of all, congratulations for choosing Amsterdam as destination ! You'll enjoy it for sure and your stay will be really different if you choose an accomodation such as this one rather than staying in any hotel you would find anywhere!!
This apartment is well located, not too far from main interesting areas. You will find everything you need to enjoy your stay there (except an ashtray as the apartment is non smoking! :-).
The host is very nice and is available in case of problems during the stay (he leaves in the same building).....but we hadn't any problem so we just saw him upon arrival!!
I hope you'll enjoy your stay ! Have a good trip!!

The location is perfect - you can basically walk anywhere. Bus station is in the next street, not even 50 Meter away. Cafes, Zen-Yoga retreat and supermarket in 30 seconds distance. The apartment itself is bright, clean, new, wonderful design. The person who took care of the apartment at the time was very nice, professional, open and easy going. There was a bottle of wine in the fridge when we arrived... This place is for everyone who is looking for an oasis. Amsterdam is wonderful and so is this non-smoking place. We had throughout the complete time cold and rainy weather, but this place and the city made up for it. Highly recommended especially for people with allergies. Wooden floor, leather coach, Bosch-fridge. Anytime again. Price ok, too.

We were quite impressed with the flat. It was chic, stylish, and immaculately clean. There is a wonderful fully stocked kitchen and hardwood floors. It is perfect for people with dust mite allergies! The flat is only 3 metro stops from the centre, located 10 m. from a nice café, and a 2 minute walk from a supermarket. The host is very friendly and extremely helpful, plus he speaks fluent German. Guests also get a bottle of wine as a welcoming gift. Comes highly recommended.

My wife and I didn't want to spend a regular family christmas in Paris, so we book a nice studio in Amsterdam. Brillant idea the studio was very well equiped and warm, in a very nice neibourghood.
We will definitly be back and book again on houseboat hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment's well situated just outside the town centre (nice short walk into town and the more obvious touristy areas) and surprisingly spacious and well-furnished.
Highly recommended as an affordable get-away well-placed to enjoy a break in the city and Frank & Thea are excellent hosts.

The appartment was clean, tidy and roomy. Very well situated for metro ( 50 mtrs ) and tram ( 150 mtrs ), which in turn is about five minutes from centre. Handy bar ( 20 mtrs ) for breakfast and more, but no noise at night. Good supermarket - 500 mtrs. Any problems, the owner lives upstairs and speaks very good English. We will be going to Amsterdam again, and we will stay at this appartment. From Gill & John, York, England.

First class apartment in a fantastically central location, 10 steps to the Metro. Warm and cosy with everything (and more) you would expect. Perfect for young or old. The hosts Frank and Theo were extremely helpful and genuinely lovely people. Would reccommend to anyone, much better value than a hotel. Will certainly be staying again.

A very cool apartment and we would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
Great situation, nice and clean.
Frank and her brother were very pleasant .
Thank You
Un apartamento "fashion" y muy recomendable.
Situación muy buena, y limpio.
Frank y su hermano fueron muy agradables.
Gracias.

A very cool and cozy apartment. Funky style, nice and clean and close to shops cafes and restaurants.
Its only a couple of stops on the metro to central station or a few minutes on the tram or busses to jordaan and the museums. But not far to walk or bike at all :-) but we had a little rain and preferred the tram.
A perfect spot to have as a base when experiencing Amsterdam.
Thank you!!!

The apartment is gorgeous - very convenient and very chic for anyone who loves interiors!
There's easily enough space to chill out and the kitchen facilities are great.
The light in the apartment is gorgeous - a lovely place to read, have a glass of wine or just unwind after a day exploring Amsterdam.
Lots of lovely places nearby to eat and Amsterdam is a gorgeous romantic place to be.
We will definitely be back

The apartment is very cute. It is located on Ground floor which is very important if you come with a baby.
We stayed there for 4 days. The owner is a great guy and was very helpful. The entire stay was fun.

A lovely apartment in a quiet location. A 15 minute walk (or 5 min bike ride) from the town centre but when it's flat who cares...! The apartment was spacious, clean, light and accommodating. The bathroom was of a high quality and the shower had a bucket head. All in all a good choice. Next time though we'd prefer to be west of the centre in the jordaan area as we spent most of our time here but it depends what you are looking for. Where we were was good for the parks and museums so if you're in Amsterdam for these then it's an excellent location.
Amsterdam - an amazing city to get lost in and can't wait till we go back.

We are a young professional couple and we stayed in this apartment for 4 nights and thoroughly recommend this apartment. The facilities, especially the kitchen and bathroom were excellent and lots of personal touches and treats for the guests such as lots of good quality towels, bath salts and a bottle of wine on arrival. The fact that it had a washing machine and dishwasher made it a home away from home. It is in a nice local location but very close to the main city centre. The hosts are very hospitable and provided handy hints and tips to see the city from a local perspective.

Our trip to Amsterdam was very enjoyable and it was vital that accommodation was satisfactory as my girlfriend was a bit nervous about the city. I decided to find accommodation outside the centre so that we could experience the hustle and bustle and the quiet side of amsterdam.
I was slightly aprehensive about the studio apartment but pleasantly surprised. The couple that own it are very nice. We were given a very nice welcome and shown around. The studio is absolutely perfect if you want quality for a good price. The kitchen is great and looks very nice, they have taken alot of care with this apartment and make your stay as comfortable as possible. The metro is perfectly situated on the opposite side of the road and is 2 stops from Centraal Station.
Thank You very much for making our stay very memorable, it was so nice to come home to this place.

Very stylish, cosy and atmospheric apartment well situated adjacent to a metro station so only a few minutes ride into Amsterdam Centre. The Amstel River is just around the corner and shops restaurants are all within a few minutes walk. We really enjoyed our stay. Hire bikes and suddenly the whole city opens up to you and you feel less like a tourist and more like a local. Great fun!

Condo is in a great locatoin near the metro line. Restaurants and shopping are nearby. The condo is large for a studio and had all conveniences. The host and hostess were very nice and made maps of local attractions. We found it to be a very positive experiece and would stay there again and recommend the condo to friends/family.

Een heerlijk appartement in het hart van de stad. Van alle gemakken voorzien en zelfs een aantal leuke eetgelegenheden op zer korte afstand.
Kortom, een perfecte uitvalsbasis voor een bezoekje aan Amsterdam

PS Eén punt van aandacht: de wastafel mag ietsje groter...

My husband and I just returned from our 5 days in this apartment. It was just what we were looking for. Our hosts were friendly and helpful. The apartment is in such a great location. You can walk just about anywhere. Or do public transport when you're tired. Equally as convenient. We really loved the kitchen. The stove is beautiful. And check out the fixtures in the bathroom and kitchen as well. They're really unique and fun. Thanks so much Frnk and Thea for everything. We'll be back as soon as we can!

We stayed there 5 days with my sister and we liked this apartment a lot! Very stylish and comfortable! Althouhg it´s not very centrally located it was really easy to use public transportation, especially metro. The Rembrandtsplein and it´s cool clubs were in walking distance! ;) And last but not least the hosts were very friendly and helpfull! Thanks Thea and Frank!
