Pros:

Het was een leuke ervaring op de boot met een hele lieve hoste, die ook de geschiedenis kent en het rijden en zeilen van amsterdam.
Ik heb heel goed geslapen en het was proper.
Alles was aanwezig, ook bij het ontbijt.
Fijn samen zitten met verschillende toeristen en de hoste.

The hotel is very nice, it has a unique atmosphere, but the streets of Amsterdamare overrun by gangs
Pros:

Maximum efficiency is achieved in a minimum space. Everything is well thought out and planned. The staff member is friendly and pleasant to talk to. The guests staying on board were also good. However, the keychains are a bit bulky and don't fit in pockets. The ship's sound insulation isn't great, but the staff are attentive and polite.

Cons:

There is nothing that can be corrected.
