Fin husbåd med de faciliteter man kan forvente, blandt andet terresse hvor livet på kanalen kunne følges - det var ikke kedeligt. Båden ligger i et gammelt industriområde, men i gåafstand ligger indkøbsmuligheder, restaurant og et torv med forskellige muligheder. Transporten fra tovet - som lå i 10 minutters gang fra husbåden - var nem med sporvogn 2\. Det tog 30-40 minutter at komme til centralstationen i Amsterdam. Endags og flerdages billetter kan købes ved stoppestedet. Kan varmt anbefale stedet ##### Tonny Malta H. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ---
