If you ever wonder what it would be like to spend a night on a boat than give this place a try It's great for 1 or 2 nights but for me, I won't take a cruise too small Secretly I'm disappointed there were no waves at night to lull me to sleep

Miellyttävä tunnelma. Retromaisuus luo erityisen kokonaisuuden. Nukkavieru sisustus. Likaläikkiä huoneessa. Repsottavia paikkoja. Liukastumisen vaaraa. Käsipyyhkeitä ei huoneissa ole.

Aamupala oli perushyvä. Huoneen kylpyhuone oli likainen ja suihkun viemäri ei vetänyt kunnolla. Sängyt erittäin kapeat.
