We wanted a romantic stay in a special place, and got everything we could desire!
Pros:

We literally liked everything about this place: The design of the cabins, the charm of being on a boat, the location, the staff, the breakfast.

Cons:

I guess that some people might not like being on a boat (e.g., the hallways are a bit narrow; no elevator). But for us, everything was perfect, and the boating feeling actually added to the charm.

Viel zu teuer für diese dunkle Bude
Pros:

Frühstück und Lage waren OK

Cons:

Das Schiff ist sehr spartanisch ausgestattet. Teppich neben dem Bett war die ganze Zeit nass da das Wasser von der Duschwanne ins Schlafzimmer auslief. Schlafzimmer war dunkel und muffig ohne die Möglichkeit das Fenster zu öffnen. Kleiderschrank waren Bretter an der Wand ohne Türen. Toilettenspülung musste zweimal getätigt werden damit alles entsorgt wurde. Fazit das Zimmer war nicht mal die Hälfte des Preises wert und hat uns sehr enttäuscht.

Excellent place for a short stop in beautiful Leith.
Pros:

It's a fantastic location. Leith is great and its just a gangplank away. The theming on the boat is well done. Bar is very good. Very good for a short stay in the area.

Cons:

Breakfast was OK but everything seems a little cramped and choice is understandably limited. Breakfast staff are fantastic though. The room was nicely done but there isn't a lot of natural light - two small portholes and therefore may be best for a short stay.

It was a wonderful stay at the Ocean Mist.
Pros:

We liked the setting very much. A unique location with a beautiful room. Very kind and attentive staff.

Cons:

The property was fine. No complaints. The biggest inconvenience was the lack of the tram into the city due to a closure of the Princess street tramway due to the recent fire on Princess street.
