Pros: Really cozy boat. It is a bit small but is just like the pictures. It was a good experience.

Cons: The access to the boat can be a little bit challenging.

Compact, but perfect base for exploring the city.

Pros: Loved having our own space - much better than a hotel. Itโ€™s compact, but has everything you need. The little deck area is good for breakfast or for watching the lights along the harbour at night. If youโ€™re brave, you could go for a dip in the water. We never did, but saw a few swimmers. Jasper and Eva are so friendly and very helpful. Iโ€™d definitely recommend staying here. We were looking at flights back before weโ€™d even left. :)

Cons: My boyfriend is quite tall, so he wasnโ€™t able to stand fully, and the shower was a bit small for him. He said heโ€™d go back though and loved being on the boat.

Peaceful hidden gem

Pros: We absolutely LOVED staying on the boat. Such a lovely, quiet area, and the hosts were exceptionally welcoming and friendly. There is a great supermarket and tram links into central very nearby. The boat was so comfortable and well-equipped with everything we might need. I was particularly impressed with the shower facilities, having not expected much from a small boat. We are sad to leave and would visit again in a heartbeat.

Pros: Awesome accommodation, highly recommend it. Beats any hotel room hands down

We have both returned with fabulous memories of our short stay in Amsterdam.

Pros: The location gave us further insight into life on the water in Amsterdam away from the city centre itself. The tram and bus services were excellent. The water life habitat combined with small urban habitat, including schools and local shops and bars produced a good outdoor safe feeling vibe. Our Hosts Ely & Jasper were not intrusive, spoke great English and so so helpful with the journey logistics and the boat logistics. Lovely people.

Cons: Considering we chose a boat I can't criticise the size of the toilet and shower, it was a boat, and it was small, but for two of us on a short stay, not having much boat experience we didn't expect anything more. The boat was fabulous.

Pros: It was at a beautiful location. We especially loved the deck of the boat where we had a beautiful view in the evening. It was small but very comfortable.

Really glad we stayed here, very cute boat

Pros: Great location, lovely host, adorable boat, beautiful neighbourhood

Cons: Not for everyone - no shower, toilet is next to bed with no separating door, toilet requires hand pumping. Didn't bother us though, we loved it

Best Service - Great Experience

Pros: We had the best time on 'city sailing' and awesome service!! Eva and Jasper were so friendly and they were available all the time. Whatever we needed we just had to ask them! We really enjoyed our trip and the experience on the cute little boat!!

Amazing experience!!

Pros: Really fun experience!! Super comfortable bed and lounge for sleeping. Was always warm and cosy. Good location, just outside of the city and an easy tram in. The man who owns the boat which City Sailing was really nice and super helpful

Cons: Didnโ€™t particularly like the pump toilet but thatโ€™s what you get on a boat

Interesting experience :)

Pros: Definitely an interesting experience ๐Ÿ˜ Loved the gentle rocking of the boat and the privacy the boat gives. I could also work from there no problem. I had space for my computer and my legs ๐Ÿ˜…

Cons: There is no shower. It wasn't an issue for me or my friend. We managed ๐Ÿ˜„ There is a bucket and fresh water on the boat, so you can clean yourself up on the deck at night for instance.
