So... by hostel this really just is a 1 room houseboat. The owner dude is rather sketchy - a bit unreliable, seems spacey. He's friendly though and seems to mean well. The place is nice - though, 200 euro is pricey. Its basically a room with 4 bunks. You share a bathroom and kitchenette with the owner, who sleeps in a small room on the other side of the kitchen.

Apparently The Friendship is under construction and didn't bother to inform anyone. I e-mailed him before we left and he didn't reply back & then I e-mailed him again once we arrived, again with no response and the phone number listed didn't work. We went across the street to Hotel Brian and they were a Godsend. We had the best time there & the staff was so helpful and gave us a discount since we got screwed by The Friendship. I would 100% recommend Hotel Brian, I mean it even came with a com...More

A nice place to stay. We were 4 people so there was only us staying there. Chris is very nice and took us on a boat trip around the canals. The location is just perfect : 5 minutes walk from the station. Would recommend this place.

We had an excellent stay but you'd need to be laid back and flexible! Good location just out of the very centre. Nice to have the privacy and novelty of a boat once the mess got sorted out.

On a canal between the centre and the Jordaan; location-wise it doesn't get any better. Owner Chris as well as boat chaotic but we found that that added to the experience! Also, Chris can arrange a very nice boat trip through all the canals (and even the IJ estuary) which shows you Amsterdam from a unique vantage point. Highly recommended although perhaps not for pickyuppetyprude (thai oil massages 5 m from boat...) persons.

Chris is a nice guy, but he seems in moments a bit lost.

The boat is barely 10 mins walk from Central Station, a major hub for transportation and 15 mins away from the Red light District. The insides were pretty clean and very homely. It has 2 bunk beds. The whole atmosphere is very bright colourful and will make you feel very much at home. We got a very warm welcome by the owner. He is a thorough gentleman and very hospitable. Definitely recommended !!!

A tremendous place for a group of 4 to base their time in the Dam. A very good hostel alternative.
