The view was sensational but there are heavy construction works just outside which are very loud from 8am in the morning and all day long so not very relaxing
The letter O room has a excellent view from the room. It made being away from family on Christmas day a lot easier to handle. We took the ferry over, it is just a short walk from there.
Stayed in a loft and it was unbelievable. The views, facilities and comfort value made for a great break.

I really wish they mentioned either when it was booked that there's loud construction work going on right next to the boat. I was woken up at 7AM by the noise.
The room was fun though.
Fantastic from beginning to end. The view from the letter O we stayed in was spectacular. Such a unique room, with the bath tub right next to the bed. Just be careful going up and down the stairs! It was hot when we first arrived but there is good air con. We asked for more shampoo and they arrived in abundance within minutes from house keeping. We requested breakfast even though we had not pre booked and this was no bother. Staff were very attentive and ensured we were catered for. The hire for the hair dryer is €12 I think. The surroundings are pleasant, it was a very quiet atmosphere at reception and social areas. Amazing that there is a free ferry back and forth to the station. A memorable stay!
I was pleasantly surprised by the overall stay. The entrance lobby and bar area was very clean and well decorated. The communal toilets were super clean and the bedroom was also well cleaned.
We stayed in the B room, it was amazing! Awesome half pipe, insane views from the each side, the bed was so comfy too. The boatel is so easy to get to, and the ferry to the centre is right outside - couldn’t be closer!
Ok place to stay. In a quiet location with easy access to Amsterdam via the free ferries. Dangerously hot showers though, that should be really be replaced. Expensive for what it is really, but you're paying to stay in Amsterdam I suppose.
Clean and functional. Good location next to the commuter ferry dropping you right in the middle of things. Good restaurant options in the harbour. (Breakfast onboard not great.) Would recommend.
