A Houseboat is of course the best place to stay when you visit Amsterdam. The Friendship accommodates 4 people and it is right in the city centre. The Friendship is one of over 2,000 houseboats scattered all over Amsterdam.Do not confuse the Friendship Houseboat with Friendship BnB. This was a different boat accommodation with a similar name which it is now closed, but it wasn't the same one!The houseboat is situated in the heart of the city, within a 5 minute walking distance of from Central Station, Dam Square the Anne Frank House and the famous Red Light District. This is the main district of its kind but there are other smaller Red Light Districts around the city and the houseboat is in the centre of one. The Friendship offers a basic accommodation, nothing too fancy but here you will find clean sheets and towels, a hot shower, hair-dryer, fully equipped kitchen which includes an oven, fridge, washing machine tumble dryer and a microwave. So if you like to cook, your basic facilities are there for you!

Instant coffee is also available no but I don't have de-cafe or curfew.In terms of entertainment there is Foosball (Table Football), A Pool Table, Ping Pong, Roulette and more!

So instead of just using skype, msn or voip to tell your friends and family back home about your great new tattoo, job, trick, song. shoes, boyfriend or hat you can show them instead. Of course if you would prefer to wait until you get back home and surprise them just unplug the Webcam and swap it for microphone + speakers or a headset instead.

The keys are attached to floating key rings but there is still a €25 deposit required for each key. (€25 for one key or €50 for two keys). There is also a safe in the guest room.The Friendships owner. who lives on the other half of the boat, has lived in the city for 20 years and was a guide for a third of that time! Put his qualifications as a guide to the test and ask him anything you want to know about the city. He can also give you a walking or boat tour at a small fee and you can choose what you want to see and where you want to go. No children or any country music (except Johnny Cash) are allowed on the tour or in the boathouse!If you book for 3/3+ consecutive nights you can enjoy a free 1 ½ hour tour!The boat is for 4 people and if you are travelling alone you still need to rent out all beds. The only other person you will be sharing with is the nice owner who lives on the other side of the houseboat and your friends if you bring them! We rent one private room for up to 4 people. You must rent all four beds (even if you come alone). You will share the room only with your friends and the rest of the boat only with the owner, who is really nice!Smoking is allowed outside. Inside you can only smoke if you open the door or a window and only smoke near to it. If you smoke around the beds you will set off the smoke-alarm.Children and Country music are not allowed, with the exception of Johnny Cash.Still not sure? 2 suggestions.1st suggestion Have a look at reviews and ratings of previous guests2nd suggestionImagine yourself telling your friends that you went to Amsterdam, and that you NEARLY stayed on a houseboat.Check-in is normally from 13.00 (1pm) to 18.00 (6 pm) and check out is normally before 11.00 If you would like to check-in or out earlier or later please contact me by email or phone at least 2 days before you arrive.
