Fijn hotel op loopafstand van de bezienswaardigheden
Pros:

De locatie

Cons:

De waterkoker was verouderd en vies. Ging ook niet altijd automatisch uit dus best gevaarlijk.

Unique stay in a good location.
Pros:

Unique place to stay, quiet despite central location. Family room was spacious and quiet.

Cons:

Breakfast was pricey at €17.50 each for the choice in the buffet, especially for vegetarian and vegan guests.

Pros:

Die Lage ist super. Von dort läuft man maximal 20 Minuten zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist sehr einfach und die Gemütlichkeit fehlt. Bei unserer Ankunft ist das Zimmer sehr kalt gewesen, die Klimaanlage lief den ganzen Tag, um ein warmes Zimmer zu haben.
Das Frühstück ist auch sehr schlicht, aber ausreichend. Ich hätte mir etwas mehr Abwechselung gewünscht.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Big steps into your room-tv didn’t work-some kind of metal support required several times to hit your head until you’re acclimated

Un séjour d'une nuit à Rotterdam qui laisse un excellent souvenir.
Pros:

L'hôtel lui-même qui est flottant ! Si cela est commun aux Pays-Bas, c'est totalement singulier pour des Français. La chambre est spacieuse et confortable. Personnel disponible et accueillant.
Le quartier est très vivant et totalement atypique pour nous en raison de la multiplicité des canaux, ponts. Très proche du surprenant marché couvert Markthal.
Le restaurant de l'hôtel est top (cuisine de qualité et service très sympathique).

Cons:

Rien.

I just love the view from window, staff is polite and available, location is very good it’s just few hundred meters from
Pros:

Location is great and the view from window is amazing.

Cons:

It’s not a big complain but rooms are quite small. I understand that’s a compromise of staying on a boat but they are small so for some people it can be a problem

A magical stay, in the middle of Rotterdam!
Pros:

We travelled for a festival, and the location was ideal. Just in the center of the town, you are minutes walking from great restaurants, teathers, museums, and shops. The room was quite a decent size, very clean and comfortable. The restaurant is open until late offering great food, and the staff was very professional and friendly.

Cons:

I think the rooms could offer more storage space, like extra shelves, specially in the bathroom.
That said, this is just a remak and not a complaint.

Pros:

The idea of a floating room is lovely, and the location is very central. The room is quite dark and feels quite cramped because of the sloping ceiling. Overall, it’s fairly spartan and best suited to guests who mainly need a place to sleep and don’t plan to spend much time there.

Pros:

Gave locatie

Cons:

Snus nicotinezakje gevonden in het bed, maar omdat we hier laat achter kwamen kon hier niks aan worden gedaan. Daarnaast vieze vlekken en haren op de vloer. Hotel heeft maar een hele minimale compensatie beloofd (beperkte compensatie voor een volgend bezoek).
