Beagle Houseboat, 阿姆斯特丹, 荷兰

The Beagle is a rusty old two storey houseboat located about 3 minutes from Amsterdam Central Station. This hostel has just one guestroom and offers accomodation for max. 4 persons (PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU CAN NOT STAY WITH MORE THAN 4 PERSONS. It is illegal and therefore NOT possible to stay with more than 4 persons on The Beagle).

The top floor is the saloon where large windows offer an always changing unique view over the dock, which is surrounded by several historical and architecturally interesting buildings and museums.

The saloon is also the common room, you share with the captain, with facilities like 2 high speed Internet computers (free of charge), do it yourself coffee and tea (also free), guest fridge/minibar, games, convenient couches etc.

Maps, guides and other (tourist) information are available and there is also a hot shower. And of course, a central heater.

The captain has a nice collection of reggae music and smoking is allowed. If the weather is nice you can also hang out on the roof.

The bottom floor is the guest room with four comfortable beds, small lockers and enough space for your luggage.
