"We had a canal-view cabin on the lower deck, and opening the windows in the morning to see coots and ducks swimming up to our cabin was honestly magical."
"This hotel is the definition of a hidden gem."
"Really enjoyable stay, location was perfect, walking distance to most tourist attractions, room was clean, bed was comfortable, nice outside seating area at the front, breakfast was decent too!"

great locationfriendly staffcanal viewample breakfast
I enjoyed the location. It was a short walk to the center. each morning, i watched ducks and geese from my window. That was lovely. the staff was very helpful and friendly. breakfast was more than enough too.
The gardens needed some attention. They looked a little scruffy.

a stay that missed the mark
thin wallssagging bed
The room felt stuffy and old. i also found that the walls were very thin. I could hear everything happening in the room next to mine. this made it hard to relax and sleep soundly at night. the bed sagged significantly in the middle, it provided little support.

The accommodation really stood out as unusual, especially because it floats on the water! check-in went so smoothly because the staff were super friendly and helpful! i even found free public parking just across from the hotel. I was lucky, as there are only three spots.
the bathroom felt a little too small, i could barely move around in it.

Breakfast had fresh bread with a range of meats. I also saw cheese and smoked salmon. The location is near the station and the town center.
The corridors lacked carpeting, I heard every step in the hotel.
