    A unique accommodation on a canal boat moored at a quay very near the city center. Quite fun! Spotlessly clean and run by a charming host. If you are looking for the Ritz Carlton, go elsewhere. But if you are in the mood for something different in...

    Location and something different. It was quiet and warm. It was lovely when we returned to the boat later in the evening to see the boat all lit up and even the lamp inside was on, s on a timer!

    Very fun to stay in this houseboat! It is a houseboat, so it is somewhat small, but know that going in and you'll have a great time :)

    It's a unique space if you want something different to a hotel or apartment. It is well equipped and quite cosy. We stayed in January, but I imagine it's great in warmer weather by the water.

    Our second stay to date. Very original. Comfortable with a little luxary and very quirky. Spacious, well equipped and a very cosey bed. Better than expected. Fantastic location! Would definitely recommend and will be back.

    We love staying on Laila May and Millie Grace, the boats are well set out and have everything you need. Waking up in the morning and watching the ducks swim past your window always makes me very happy. The boats are very comfortable and clean.

    The boat was immaculate inside and out. The water had frozen over when we arrived but the boat was really warm.
