After growing up on a houseboat I couldn't wait to get my own little oasis in the middle of the city of Amsterdam! Now, my father, my brother, and myself all live on a houseboat in Amsterdam - !

    A cosy stay.

    We had a wonderful time in Michele’s studio. Although the square footage was limited, the space has been utilised excellently. We really enjoyed using the recommendations from the book provided, a nice touch. The utensils were slightly limited (no forks and only one wine glass!) but there was more than enough for us to manage with for a short stay. Michele was a very kind and attentive host and provided us with a perfect place to spend our weekend in Amsterdam.

    Really nice, romantic stay, with a little lack of space

    We really enjoyed our stay and spent a lot of time on the roof, having fun with friends. The bathroom and the floor of the bedroom were a little dirty and there were a lot of boats going by. But the bed was good, everything was working as said and really nice. Would definitely recommend.

    Great little place - great access to transport, cafes etc. cute & compact. Maybe mention that roof access is shared - wasn’t aware of that.

    We spent 4 nights on the houseboat, the price we paid is definitely NOT worth it. Bed is crappy and shower, there is also information that is totally incorrect, the photos on the site have probably not been updated for a long time. We all want to earn money with all due respect, but I really think you should adjust something. Very sorry about my money.

    REACTION FROM THE OWNER

    What a shame you didn't like the room! Normally only good responses so we will definitely look into it as we want all guests to have a great time. After your review I tried the shower myself and took a wonderful shower to my knowledge. Bathroom is small so will always get a bit wet, hence the tractor that hangs there. We found out from the guests after you that there was a problem with the slatted base. We fixed this on the day when they reported this. So next time do not hesitate to report it immediately and we can solve it! Our apologies if you have not slept well because of that.

    Wonderful stay in a great location

    My partner and I recently stayed in Michele’s houseboat in De Pijp. It was perfect for our stay, we were lucky to have great weather and got to make the most of the roof terrace - and the location suited us really well, with easy access to lots of fun cafes, bars and restaurants. We found the room clean and it had lots of useful amenities including a coffee machine! We’d definitely stay here again!
