Very good
DeVante, Jul 2019
Pros (+) It was a boat that was a hotel!
Cons (-) The bar options. But it was understandable that they were limited due to the fact that it was a boat.

Marleen, Aug 2017
Pros (+) The ferry will drop you off very near Amstel Botel, so if you walked all around the city, it will not be tiring to get to your hotel.
Cons (-) The room was very basic and smelled like urine. It was not a pleasant stay at all. The front desk is not much help either.

Anonymous, Jul 2016
Pros (+) The boat is in a really cool wharf area. There's some really cool bars and restaurant just outisde. If you don't plan to stay inside, the boat is ideal for travelers on a budget.
Cons (-) Pretty straight forward, you're staying on an old cruise boat. Nothing fancy but a room and a shower.
