Die Lage, nettes kleines Hausboot

Leider waren die Fenster zum Fluss hin nicht komplett zu öffnen.

Great atmosphere and time spent with family

9.0

I loved the location, and the experience of staying on the canal. The houseboat was very clean and relaxing.

I did not like the fact that we had to wait almost 30min to get into the space. I was told to send a message via WhatsApp at 14:30 to gain access. I sent a message 14:40, and received no response. I called and left a message, then another WhatsApp message at 15:04, and finally received a response at 15:21. I’m a very punctual person and would have appreciated if the individual would have just sent me an access message at 14:30 instead of me having to message him, as I was tired and had plans. Other than that, all was very nice. My suggestion in the future would be for the staff to send the access information at check in time instead of having to request it. The money had already been paid, so there should not have been an issue.

Great ambience, original concept of living on a house boat.

8.0

Original concept, great to be on the canal.

Checkin was delayed and staff was a bit rude and unclear about it. Wasnt clear until 230pm when i can come and check in. Created a bit of last minute stress. Would be great to have an open terrace
