Jättefint läge 😊

7.0

Läget var ju helt suveränt. Det var underbart att sitta uppe på båten på kvällarna och blicka ut över Amstel. Tur att det fanns bra AC, för det var 35-38 grader när vi var där. Bra info i förväg av värden.

Det var lite bökigt att ta sig ner för den branta stegen med bagage och hund, men det löste sig. Hade nog varit svårt med en stor hund. Det luktade lite rök nere i kabyssen där vi sov, kanske hade gästerna före oss rökt.

Location

Bathroom was a little odd, with several steps/corners. But normal for a boat? Adjoining door to other half of boat was in the bedroom and the neighbours were very noisy

Fantastic location

7.0

Location and views, it was an adventure.

Steep stares (took a little getting used to) damp smell, could do with the bathroom updating to the standard of the kitchen.

Ubicación genial, barco con arañas

5.0

La ubicación es excelente

Habían bastantes arañas. El espacio era limitado, en la habitación principal estaba desaprovechado el espacio con la planta y el armario en el cual no cabía la ropa para dos personas. Se podría haber avisado con antelación de la visita del ayuntamiento del departamento de la vivienda, se presentaron antes de check out para hacer una inspección regular, nos ha pillado por sorpresa.

A real adventure and experience.

8.0

The stunning location. The boat has pretty much everything you need.

The deck furniture could be upgraded and the pillows on the beds really do need replacing. Otherwise, excellent.

Great base for a weekend away with friends!

8.0

Great location. We enjoyed sitting outside and watching all the boats go by. Fantastic for people watching!

The upstairs room was way too hot for us to use. Not a problem when you can sit outside 😃
