Dormire in barca

Noi abbiamo pernottato sull'Allure. La signora Imma è stata veramente cortese e accogliente, ci ha aiutato a muoverci per Amsterdam con ottimi consigli. La colazione ottima e abbondante, la cabina pulita e con tutto l'occorrente.

Cons:

Mi è piaciuto tutto.

Beim nächsten Besuch gerne wieder.
Pros:

Besonderes Ambiente. Sehr nahe am Zentrum.

Cons:

Die Kabine ist schon sehr klein. Zum Schlafen reicht sie aber voll und ganz aus. Wir waren im Winter zu Gast und es war sehr ruhig. Im Sommer dürfte das anders sein, weil die anderen Boote in unmittelbarer Nähe liegen.

Great stay, excellent Host and Breakfast
Pros:

The host was amazing and the breakfast was so good, the sweet bread pudding was incredible. The rooms were nice and tidy, a bit small but of course that is what you can expect on a boat. The location is great and easy to reach the city center by just walking

Regular
Pros:

El desayuno estaba muy bien, y pudimos pedir comida que trajeron sin problema.

Cons:

Es un alojamiento diferencia, está bien como experiencia pero al menos el camarote-habitación que nos tocó era súper pequeño. Pedimos una cama y pusieron dos muy pequeñas y separadas, y había un techo que impedía que pudieras entrar bien en una de las camas.
