Superb stay on the water

amazing attention complimentary drinks special touch decorated room
The staff showed amazing attention. They decorated the room with hearts and petals since it was our anniversary. They gave us complimentary drinks at the bar. This special touch set this hotel apart for me.
Our room had a small port hole window near the waterline, and it was bit dirty.

Adequate Experience at the hotel

convenient location well trained staff great barman dirty windows noisy pipe orange juice
The location was convenient. It was easy to access the tram service at the end of the road. The staff were cute and knowledgeable about the boat's history. The barman mixed great cocktails, WHICH i appreciated.
our room was below deck. small porthole windows just above the waterline, were dirty. a bilge pipe right outside the window, sounded like a cistern that wouldn't stop running. breakfast could have been better for the price.
