As soon as my husband and I returned from Amsterdam we stayed at the cabin and this will be the last time!!!A real shame... the owner got our check out date wrong and the day before they allowed themselves to enter our room, collect our things and leave our luggage outside for everyone's goods!! How can we afford to touch other people's things? Not to mention the non-existent breakfast on the last day at 8.30 there was no one and not even the breakfast which we had paid for anyway!!!! Accommodation bordering on cleanliness and we tried to turn a blind eye to this... but finding your bags outside the accommodation due to their mistake is UNACCEPTABLE.

It's the best choice if you want to stay in the centre of the city for a very cheap price, you can visit every major destination in the city within an hour or less then a hour of walk from here because of that its best choice you can have in the centre of city. the service and workers are very friendly, helpful and nice people, The rooms (the cabins) are a little bit smaller but to be honest it's enough for sleeping and relaxing and regarding that there is common space where you can sit, relax, eat and do whatever you want and there is plenty of space for that. Rooms ( the cabins) are clean as well as beds, breakfast is included and there's more than enough kind of food on the breakfast and it tastes normal. The nights were relaxing and calm, outside is breathtaking views of the river and the city at night as well as at day. Also I consider it noteworthy that they have a lovely and big dog named Avalon which is very friendly and cal so dog lovers be aware of that. The WiFi is working fine as well as water in the shower and sink. Overall it's the best choice for the cheap price and very different and relaxing experience.

Run away!!!!! Run Away. !!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️Thieves, unpleasant and liars. 90€ per night for a boat without heating or hot and cold water.Accommodation booked on hôtel.com.Arriving on the boat, the manager “welcomes” us and hands over the keys to the cabin.Once installed, we quickly noticed water on the ceiling from condensation resulting from the total absence of heating on the boat. Less than 15°C in the cabin. No hot water either.The manager, after 2 calls, restarts the generator.Boiling water arrives but no heating and no cold water to regulate the temperature. Impossible to take the shower.In an unpleasant way he tells me that he doesn't know anything and that no one will come and fix it.After 1h30 of negotiation with the reservation platform and the manager (who did not respond to calls from the reservation platform) I obtained the refund.We fled the same evening and fortunately found much more suitable accommodation at the best price.The manager did not want to refund the 6 euros tourist tax. We call it theft.Several people were in our situation!!!

TO RUN AWAY!We booked a room with a double bed option. When we arrived, the staff were cold and unpleasant. We got the keys to the cabin, once inside, surprise: a dirty room and a bunk bed. We were reported to the staff who received us very badly and who could do nothing for us (except give us beers as compensation). The boat was full so it was not possible to reaccommodate us or reimburse us for the double bed option reserved. We were in no way informed that the option could not be honored and the staff act as if nothing had happened and play games with us. Scam potentially made on different tourists in view of the other comments.We had to contact booking where the receptionist pretended to be the manager and made us appear to be too demanding people when we were simply asking that our reservation be consistent with what we paid. If you are not bilingual (English), the staff will play games with you. We had to “monitor” the discussion that took place with booking because the staff were openly lying (posing as the manager when he was not present, saying that we had been warned when not (evidence in support), etc) and played on words concerning the size of the so-called standard beds but smaller than the adult standard. To be avoided not only for the disrespect but also the lack of hygiene of the premises and the non-compliance with the options taken. Even if the price remains reasonable compared to other accommodation in such a good location, we do not advise you not to set foot there, otherwise you risk leaving your money there and/or losing your accommodation once there. It's a shame.

We would like to spend some of our time to thank the guys at house for their kindness and hospitality since they allowed us to stay one night inside the boat since we had the train at 5 in the morning of the day after pur reservation. A very characteristic house, the rooms are inside a boat docked in the central station area, small rooms but with private bathroom have everything you need to spend a comfortable night, waking up inside a boat is truly a unique experience .Highly reccomended

Do not book, they scammed my family outta money. Told them to cancel and not refund them. Long message back and forth lead to no results. Had to call my bank and show them proof of everything; so I could get my money back.
