    The cabin walls are thin so if someone is coughing on the other side, it can be heard clearly. And you can’t sit up straight in the bunk beds because they are low but then the ceiling of the cabin is low and they’ve done the best they can with the cabins.

    The ship is in a very central location. It only takes 10-15 minutes to walk to the Old Town. If you love being on water, this is the place for you.

    Be aware that in addition to the main ship, there are two barges with accommodation, so you may not be on the more attractive ship. As you would expect with a ship, there are gangways and stairs to negotiate (which we saw as part of the experience, but may be a problem for some). Furnishings were basic rather than luxurious. Bed was very firm, which may suit some (e.g. me) but not others (e.g. my wife). Be prepared for other guests walking past your windows, including the bathroom window, which had frosted glass but no blind.

    Super location, waking up each morning to wonderful views through the several large windows across the water. Within relatively easy walking distance of the Gamla Stan. Being on the water added to the experience. Our accommodation came with a small lounge area with sofa, chairs and tables and a separate bedroom. Excellent Thai restaurant on the main ship, with discount for those staying at the hotel.

    you can hear your room neighbors coughing, so better bring ear plugs. When using the sink it can happen that the neighbors sink makes noises. I woke up several times even in the middle of the night. Missed a hair dryer.

    Great location with waterfront view

    The room was relatively dark as the small window was very low and close to the water. Also, the beds were quite uncomfortable and gave me a stiff neck.

    It's an affordable option to stay close to the center and offers an alternative way of accomodation.

    We were on boat 2 on the -1 floor and there was just one bathroom (one toilet and one shower) in our floor. Finding that bathroom empty in the mornings was quite hard. On the 1st floor there were many more toilets and showers (separated), luckily we could go there. Also, our floor smelled bad a little bit, it was perfectly tolerable though.

    location, staff, comfy bed

    The view from my room was not what I expected as I selected "City view", and that translated into almost no view at all. I was placed on a lower deck facing the cement deck (opposite to the city). I also felt very exposed as anyone on the deck would be able to see directly into my room, so I kept my curtains closed the entire time.

    - Cleanliness, everything was spotless. The shared bathroom was cleaned often. - A shared bathroom was always available, the number of rooms was adequate - Room was comfortable overall - The main reception boat looked very well cared for - The rooftop was nice - The breakfast was nice - The staff was super nice and available

    No kettle in room. Although we had access to the communal kitchen when we enquired. Bed was harder than expected, although managed to sleep well.

    Great location and friendly staff. This is a 2 star hostel near the metro.good walking distance to old town and many attractions. Good space in room, towels and hair drier provided. I'd use it again and better than what was expected. Breakfast good and cheaper if you book the day before. Nice bar and lounge area

    On a windy day boat bumping was very noisy. Corridor was a bit smelly.

    Interesting experience to sleep on the boat and chill watching the river from tables on platform. One of the cheapest. Room to leave stuff after check-out. Old town can be reached very quickly by foot.

    The fishermen did not want to talk to me or explain their very unique way of fishing. Also it seems my gag of buying a salmon, placing it in the water and pretending to reel it in was not amusing and actually quite insulting to their skills.

    Loved the location, what a great place to stare out from. Seeing the wonderful watery plains of stockholm. Hearing the rickity rocking of the ship. My especial favourite part is seeing the rather bemusing fishermen who dip their rods between the ship and the dock. What a mild hobby!

    On our previous visit, we stayed in the upper cabins and we liked it more, cuz it did not move as much. But ofc your are at boat, so it will move. The furniture would use some refreshment, but nothing crazy. The only thing we did not like were fishermen right in front of our window

    It was our second stay here and we would book this hotel again while coming to Stockholm. If you are up to smaller rooms (or cabins) and you dont mind it, you would find this hotel really nice. It is super close to the centre and for this location, the price is super good. Also there is plus you can tell your friends you stayed at boat.

    It was all good.

    My room was very clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable, but although the very flat pillow was fine for me, I think some people might have liked an extra pillow. The room was bright and airey and I liked the armchair. Hangers and hooks for clothes were much appreciated as I travelled with summer dresses and blouses.

    this was my second time here, the room for my second stay was a lot smaller than the one I stayed before, and the bed was not so comfortable as it was very small, but for the price I paid I couldn't complain much! Next time I would pay more for a bit bigger room. And I found this room a bit dusty.. but It was okay for one night.

    The location! The hotel staff was very nice they let me leave my luggage in the luggage room for a week then I came back to stay here again.
