Good Value For Money
Great Boat Hotel. Nice rooms, super clean, beds are good but could be better. The Bar and Breakfast were really nice. The service was always professional too. Overall a good stay but the wifi wouldn't work with iPhones!! You need to fix that ASAP.

Hotel is decent but not sure it’s the 5 star experience it mentions. Rooms aren’t massive but have all you need. The river views are great. For those worried about being on water, it is very stable, you don’t notice that you are on water. Location is great to be based centrally.

Good comfortable stay 2 minutes from the old town
Interesting being a river cruiser. Comfortable and friendly staff - end of season so only a few guests on board - no real atmosphere which suited me for a busy business trip.

Don’t recommend staying here
The reservation was made based on the appearance photographs of the hotel. Little did we know it was a boat on the water. We drove around the area for over an hour trying to find it as the navigator indicated it was just off the street (not on the side with the water/river). After asking a person we realized it was actually on the water. Anyway, after unloading our luggage we asked the clerk of the boat goes anywhere. They said no. So we checked into our room. Once inside our room we noticed about 10-15 long black strands of hair in the bed under the comforter. By the way, we’re both blond haired. Soooo.... about 5am I can feel the boat rocking. As we looked out the window the boat is headed up river. Shortly after we realized we’re moving we go into the bathroom and there is no water. None! We climb back into bed and wake up about 7 and find that the boat is docked now. But about 1.5 miles from where we boarded. Yes.....where we left the car in a park house. Moving right along, we hiked to the car and went back to get our bags and checked out. No shower, no explanation as to what happened. They did apologize.

Un original barco-hotel
In hotel que es un barco con todas las comodidades. Recomiendo las habitaciones con vista al río ya que la sensación de despertarse rodeado de agua es incomparable.
