Nice Stay on the Water

easy access friendly staff adorable dog

The location provided easy access to the city center, and I appreciated the friendly staff. The price was GOOD for what was offered, and I particularly loved the adorable dog on board. I found the access to the city center convenient.

The walls were quite thin, and noise from other guests was sometimes noticeable.

Service

Staff provided assistance with luggage both before check-in and after check-out, i APPRECIATED that. The owner showed great hospitality, and the service was indeed attentive.

Dining

Breakfast included boiled eggs plus sandwiches, i liked those. The breakfast was basic, but it was quite tasty with sufficient nutritional value, so THAT was great. Breakfast service started promptly at the scheduled time.
