I booked a cabin on The Red Boat for a week stay in Sweden and used it as a home base while touring the country.
It was perfect for this purpose. It is within a short walk to Gamla Stan Metro stop as well as a short walk to other attractions.
The best way to describe this lodging experience is Maritime Rustic Hostel.
It is not posh or fancy, but provides basic accommodations with helpful staff. The cabin, bathroom, showers and common areas were clean and warm (stay was in November).
I would stay at The Red Boat again.
If you plan to book here, have realistic expectations and you will be satisfied.

We were allocated a room on the boat next door to the red boat.
Good points:-
Cheap
Not to far from public transport
Negative points:-
No additional facilites like common space if you are not on the red boat itself
Only 2 toilets, which were up staris, so they layout was not great.
The showers were very small, better use could have been made of the space.
Overall the stay was ok, but the layout needs some changes to make it more comfortable.

A room on the boat is really fun and it is located conviniently near the city centre. And, the prices are very competitive.

This boat hotel has a lovely vintage style from the moment you walk in with it's beautiful wooden interior and wonderful decor. The room was cozy, clean and warm, and although we slept on a bunk bed it was surprisingly very comfortable. In terms of the location, it is perfectly situated in the center of Stockholm city with close walk to coffee shops and main attractions. The only small disadvantage is having to share toilets and bathrooms, which you would expect from a small boat, but otherwise the stay was very comfortable and we barely felt the boat rocking as the waters were very calm. Staff were very friendly too and we got along with them, so overall it was a great stay!

A unique experience for sure. Was cheap and a nice view with a comfy bed but probably wouldn’t have wanted to stay any longer (stayed one night)

The Red Boat is very unique and the service was great! We really enjoyed our stay. Shared bathroom facilities were kept clean.
It is difficult to access rooms for those with limited mobility due to the ramp up to the boat with rooms and then the narrow spiral staircase down to the rooms. So can be difficult to manage with suitcases vs backpacks.

The property is a boat, and that is unique and cool. I had a room with a private bath and shower wich were small but fine. The negative is the location of the boat. There is a very busy street/highway in front of the property and it's not easy to walk to attractions.

Lack of appropriate toilet facilities was a massive issue had one toilet for a whole boat which the only access is down a stair case and round the corner which is only accessible from the outside.
