The apartment is located in district "Oud West" (Old-West), a neighbourhood for anyone who wants to enjoy the bustling character of the city together with the locals. In recent years, the neighbourhood has become a popular neighbourhood among people in their twenties and thirties. The explanation is simple: "Oud West" has an endless amount of hip coffee shops and affordable tasty restaurants. The old tram depot of the district has been renamed "De Hallen" (The Hallen): a new hotspot in Amsterdam where you can eat and drink at one of the many street food stalls and where you can even go to the cinema. Monthly activities such as the "Local Goods Market" are organized here.
Here an example of the several walking tours:
This walking tour is for culture lovers who like to visit museums. The Museumplein is of course not to be missed during this route. In addition, you will see a lot of interesting architecture, both old and new. People who love good food will also get their money's worth at the countless cafes and restaurants on the "Overtoom" and in "the new Hallen". It is a long tour, which you can also do well by bike.
You start at the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum or the Stedelijk, all of which have been thoroughly renovated in recent years. At the Rijksmuseum, this may have yielded the most special result. In 80 rooms that have been beautifully renovated, you can immerse yourself in the history of our Dutch masters, with Rembrandt's Night Watch as the highlight.
Afterwards you can relax in the "Vondelpark", the most famous park in Amsterdam. You continue your way towards Oud-West and discover numerous creative companies that have settled here in recent years. In the "Kinkerbuurt" (Kinker neighbourhood) you will pass "De Hallen"(The Hallen), the newest cultural and culinary hotspot in the city. Since 2014, this former tram depot from the early 20th century has been home to stalls with tasty dishes: a perfect concept for a pleasant evening out with friends. These "Foodhallen" are the ideal stop for both large and small hunger.
The advantage of this Houseboat-Apartment is that it's situated in the heart of Amsterdam on walking distance from the most desired areas in the old town and close to most attractions, shops, restaurants and nightlife.

Summary: What a delightful spot in Amsterdam! Very comfortable bed and living space. Bathroom spacious and modern. Kitchen had everything one needed and easy to cook there. We used the deck outside to sit at the table and share a bottle of wine while the boats passed by. Our Host was very responsive and pleasant. Highly recommend!

Summary: We stayed in May 2024 for 2 weeks. We used the pre arranged taxi from the airport and then used them on our way out, they were so good. We had never been to Amsterdam before, but the location seemed perfect with a few restaurants not a block away, everything else in walking distance. Lots of room for 2. The bed was comfortable. We loved watching boaters go by as well as the ducks living in the area (some we named). It was on the more expensive end but certainly worth it! Because it is a boat, the drain in the shower sometimes had a bit of an odor. We were allowed to check in early and when we accidentally dropped the keys in the canal (yes, we did), the hosts remedied it within 30 minutes!

Summary: My husband and I stayed for several nights between Christmas and New Year's. We wanted to visit the parks and museum in this part of the city, and it was very convenient to them. The neighborhood is mostly residential and as such was very quiet. Very few people, bikes, or cars went down our street even though other parts of the city were very busy at this time of year. The walls and windows of the houseboat are very thin, though. This was less a problem of climate control because the heating kept us warm but more a problem of noise. There were ducks on the water that would make small chirping sounds during the night and the occasional loud conversation on the street. Because everything else was so quiet and the walls were thin, we could hear these things as though they were in the room with us. The first night I had extra trouble sleeping because of the time difference, and the noises made it harder. The bed was very comfortable, though, and a couple of extra blankets were available. We use VRBO instead of hotels partly because we prefer to prepare our own meals because of food allergies, and the kitchen was great. We had everything we needed for simple and more complicated cooking. The equipment and also some oils and spices were all available and everything was in good working order. The living room was spacious and comfortable. The small patio outside the living room would have been really nice in warmer weather but we did not spend any time out there.

Summary: This houseboat is picturesque and located close to transit, restaurants, and grocery/convenience stores. Would definitely stay there again if I’m back in Amsterdam! The host was friendly and communicative.

Summary: Our stay was terrific. The houseboat is in a perfect location, close to shops and neighborhood restaurants. It's also within walking distance of museums and other attractions. The houseboat itself makes you feel like part of the canal community. It was clean, and had everything we needed. We'd absolutely stay here again. (Bonus: you get a front-row seat to the parakeets flying down the canal every evening at dusk.)

Summary: We stayed 4 nights before boarding a Rotterdam cruise ship. This charming houseboat is in the perfect location, clean, spacious, well equipped and has a lovely deck where you can sit and enjoy the boats pass by. Very peaceful and close to the major sights. Many good restaurants and cafes within walking distance. Ubers were easily able to find us. Loved our stay, the hosts were also helpful in arranging taxi for us from the airport!

Summary: We enjoyed 2 weeks on the Lady Jane. The houseboat had everything that we needed to enjoy our stay. We loved that there was a short walk to two quaint Italian restaurants. We also enjoyed the ice cream shop that was close by. Most days we were out, but the one day I stayed on the boat, the small deck was just right to read my book and wave to the boats on the canal. The main street had many shops and restaurants, and it was only a 15-minute walk to Museumplein and Vondelpark.
