Breakfast was fine. Location offered easy access to the train and if you are leaving on a cruise it is ideal.
This property would have had a higher rating for comfort, but my husband is 6'4" and could not completely stand up.

Owner has a problem about leaving apartament after midnight, you can't go even smoke, you need to be just inside, his letter to us " when you come on the boat you must stay inside, be quiet and go to the bed" like sorry but wtf?? Almost 600€ for one week without breakfast and you can't even go out when you want. Apartament is also really small and I don't even talk about the bathroom, ceiling in the shower is maybe 170cm high and if you want warm watter you need to wait.It did not meet our expectations at all, sorry. Not recommend for young people!

It was really a good idea to rent this historic ship in this super modern city. Greetings to the owners. They are very friendly and serve a dekicious breakfast. Thank you for all; Yvonne & Bernd.

The facilities are good, the bathroom is a bit pokey as you would expect on a boat but the shower was good and it all worked fine. The folding beds were comfortable and the kitchen area had everything we needed, though we went out to eat anyway. The location in a quiet dock is a couple of miles from the city centre, but there's a tram stop just a 5 minute walk away and metro stop about 10 minutes away.

lovely breakfast
cosy rooms suitable for up to 3 people
valuable experience on board
There are a few things you should know beforehand:
1. B&B but breakfast is extra, it costs €12.5 per adult and half price for a toddler.
2. The owners live on the same ship. They do not come into the guest area, but I could hear everything from conversations to the dog's footsteps.
3. Most importantly, the information on Google Maps is currently correct! The owner told us in advance that the correct description of the location and that the information on Google Maps was incorrect. However, the English in the description was not quite accurate and the street names shown were very confusing as we didn't know they were street names. We lost valuable time trying to find the ship.

Location was perfect not far from the city center and easy to find parking

Nice to sleep on a boat for a change. Good location in the city.
I (1.95) couldn't stand upright. Understandable, but uncomfortable. Furthermore very noisy. I could hear the neighbours talking, walking and doing their business clearly.

The boat hotel is quaint, friendly and located close to Rotterdam Zuid train station. My dog and I slept like logs. The breakfast was delicious and hearty. The surrounding area is great for a wander. Plenty of shops are around a corner. It's an idyllic hotel. I wouldn't swap the experience for any other hotel. Thank you kindly.
Panda and I stayed at this dog friendly hotel, en route to Rotterdam Europoort, having landed at Amsterdam that morning. The hotel helped arrange a taxi too.
I'm 193cm tall. The shower cubicle is much shorter. It wasn't that I didn't like it. It's certainly something to be aware of. Actually, looking back, there's nothing I didn't like. The gangplank is a metal grill. I didn't like carrying my dog Panda over it.

Great location, owner was wonderful. the breakfast was beautifully presented and more than adequate for the two of us.
The boat was very clean, in great shape and decorated tastefully. Lovely touches from the owner, a sign welcoming me and a complimentary wine and drinks for the kids.

It’s a pretty location. The host was very nice and had a lot of service to offer.
The size of the room is fine for the price and the fact that it’s an house boat. But you have to be aware of this, especially if you’re a tall person.

We liked the calm and relax atmosphere. When you just come in you can smell wood and freshness. The hostess is friendly and helpful
The problem with the Internet. Nowadays it's very important because you use it as a novigator

This is an amazing experience to stay on an historic working boat. We entered our room via the wheelhouse and descended into a pretty, wood-paneled space. Very comfortable. There is a small kitchen (stove, refrigerator), so that one can self-cater, but you can also pay for them to deliver a lovely full basket of breakfast items, including warm bread and boiled eggs. We enjoyed our experience very much.
The internet was rather slow, but this was a minor issue in an otherwise wonderful stay.

We had the perfect stay. the boat is comfortable and unique. we wish we could have stayed longer. there is a supermarket within a few minutes walk. Everything we needed was provided.

This is our first time on the boat, we wanted something new for the experience (4 people). The location was good, close to the train station, a 20-30 minute walk to the city center via the bridge - stunning views. Close to supermarket and restaurants.The owner of the boat is nice. Fully equipped kitchen, has everything to prepare meals.
When we entered the housing unit there was a smell of mold. It's not inviting. The boat has 4 twin beds but the place is not suitable for 4 adults, we had a very very crowded both laterally and lengthwise. Also not suitable for a few nights. Uncomfortable folding beds, we left with back pain. Shower and toilet very crowded, no place to move. Boat owners live on the same ship, a closed door separates the housing units. They heard us and we heard them. WiFi not good.
4.5
I liked that there was a stove, dishes, refrigerator and a way to prepare my own meals. This was very convenient.
They didn’t come to clean the room at all and I was there for 10 days. It would have been helpful to have a broom to clean up a bit myself.
4.5
Clean spaces. Comfortable beds. Separate living room. Nice hot shower. Friendly and responsive host. Nice touches (a bottle of wine, decor, nautical and local books). Fridge. An authentic and unique feel.
The night was hot and rainy, and the room - with no air conditioning and limited ability to open windows - offered little relief. I recommend adding a small AC or some better form of ventilation. I would also recommend creating an outside "patio" area with a tarp to keep guests dry, and some lounge chairs or hammocks. It would be much more enjoyable to spend a rainy hot evening in a dry / outside place.
