Perfect if your cool with glamping, a little off the main routs so harder to get to, not hard but two trams or the bus to downtown, walking distance to a lot. Great location on the camel however not fancy, a great spot to sleep outside with shade and peace and quiet

The is a tiny boat. The two single beds are not worthy of an adult...far too short. The bigger bed had very poor mattress and very low headroom. The bathroom is a cassette toilet out on the open deck. The host said there were public showers nearby, I didn't see them. The boat was dirty, old and tiny. Nothing pleasant about this stay.

Staying on the boat was a unique experience. Since there is no bathroom, it’s naturally not the most comfortable accommodation, but it honestly feels a bit like camping in the middle of Amsterdam, and that’s part of the charm. We would recommend it especially for a short stay of one or two nights.One of the best parts was spending the evening on the boat and having dinner there, the atmosphere was beautiful and very relaxing.As a small suggestion for improvement, it would feel even more comfortable if the blankets had duvet covers. We believe everything was clean and it certainly looked clean, but covers would make the experience feel a bit cozier. A few small updates to the interior could also make the stay even better overall.We really enjoyed our stay, thank you for hosting us

My boyfriend and I attempted to stay here for about two nights three days. firstly, we never got an exterior picture of the boat so we had no clue what boat we were staying on. Secondly, we went into this knowing we would not get a shower, but were told on the listing that we would get a half bathroom(meaning a toilet). Once we got onto the boat, the host showed us two camping toilets where he then stated we can bring it inside where we sleep to use the restroom privately. He then began to say that we had to poop in a bag and bring it to the trashcan outside of the boat. Once the host left, we decided to sit inside of the boat and realized that the “3rd bed“ was actually not a third bed and neither of us could have fit in that boat comfortably. We also noticed that the propane tank where the heat is supposed to come out of was sitting right next to where our heads were supposed to be when we slept. These conditions were not as advertised and completely unsafe and unsanitary. We had to immediately try and find somewhere else to stay. The host refused to send a refund. Total SCAM, do not stay here.

There were many safety concerns that came with this property and host. Firstly, there was a propane tank with an open flame in this property that was touching both beds and sitting on a shag carpet. Instructions on how to operate this were barely given as the whole check in process was incredibly rushed. Additionally there was a hot plate and coffee machine haphazardly placed at this property. This boat is extremely small and having that many fire hazards, made us feel incredibly uneasy, especially when sleeping. Additionally, there were two locks, one to lock from the outside when you left the property and another to lock from the inside when sleeping. The lock to keep the property secure when sleeping consisted of a thin string that could easily been ripped. This was extra concerning on a night where there were men lingering outside the boat blocking the entrance and harassing my friends and I (three young girls). When reaching out to the host about this situation he didn’t answer until late the following day where all he said was that the area is safe and a situation like that had never happened before. Additionally, he sent us to a bathhouse he recommended (as the property has no shower) where we were harassed by men. This felt incredibly dangerous as we were the only women there and the bathhouse was cash only with no cameras. Overall, we spent this trip feeling uncomfortable and unsafe on all accounts due to choosing this property.

Schrecklichste Herberge und Beschreibung dieser Übernachtung, was wir je erlebten! Ein gefühlt ausranchiertes Hausboot, Wolldecken ohne Bettüberzug, die wahrscheinlich für alle Gäste die gleichen sind, wahnsinnig eng, kleiner Gasheizer mit Gefahr die Decken zu entzünden, modriger Geruch, usw. Der Gipfel: ein Badezimmer in der Beschreibung, was am Ende ein kleiner Wasserkanister mit Viertel voll Wasser war, waschen, Zähne putzen draußen unter Publikum auf Wasser und Landseite. Campingtoilette, wo man entweder in der ganz kleinen, engen Kabine neben seinem Partner sein Geschäft verrichtet oder ebenfalls draußen unter Beobachtung des Publikums. Das war der Gipfel!!! Wir blieben keine 10 min! Reisten ab, baten um Kulanz von einer der 2 Nächte, ohne Erfolg! Joseph schrieb, es sei unser Problem... Wieso darf man ein Badezimmer "anpreisen", wenn man einen Kanister vorfindet? Enttäuscht ist untertrieben, es ist unmöglich, dort zu übernachten! Nichts, auch gar nichts war nur im Ansatz "befriedigend".

Nous n'avons pas pu utiliser le bateau car il était sale, n'avait aucun moyen de chauffage et n'avait pas de toilettes! Nous avons du louer une chambre d'hotel en urgence. le loueur était de mauvaise foi et parfaitement malhonnête.1-le bateau a été déplacé par rapport à l'annonce et s'est trouvé beaucoup plus loin que prévu.2-mise à disposition du bateau 2h30 après l'heure prévue d'ans l'annonce : 18h30 au lieu de 16h3-ménage non terminé au moment de notre arrivée à 18h , nous avons du attendre.bateau très sale, dépôt de détritus à coté du bateau, mauvaises odeurs à l'intérieur dissimulées avec du parfum d'ambiance.4-aucun chauffage, bombonne de gaz vide, le loueur a promis de la changer mais est revenu sans bombonne, température de la nuit prévue à 3 degrés! aucune couverture chaude!5-pas de toilettes, le loueur est revenu à notre demande avec des seaux! et ces derniers qui ne pouvaient être mis que sur le pont!6-pas d'arrivée d'eau.7-pas de draps dans les lits, no oreillers, seulement un coussin et un couvre lit très léger.8-la porte du bateau était cassé, un trou s'y trouvait et laissait passer le froid.Le loueur n'a pas proposé de solutions
