Want to stay in a historical houseboat in Amsterdam? Then this is your perfect opportunity! Close to the City center in 'Oostelijke Eilanden' area of the City.

The space
This historical boat is perfect for a couple who want to enjoy a relaxing stay in Amsterdam. The whole wooden interior is still in perfect mint condition and was built in 1922.

You will have a private room on the rear end of the ship. This is a private area where you will find the cabin and captain's house with two single beds!

There is also a separate toilet and shower available. You will share the shower with the owner of the boat. He lives on the front end of the boat.

There are some really steep stairs, so be careful when you are a bit less fit.
Especially elder people have to be very careful with taking the high stairs!
