Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: It's a nice and suggestive accommodation. Clean and stuff is extremely kind
Negative: It's not possible to close the bathroom door from the corridor, that means that the bathroom remains open after the usage. There's not enough space to hang wet towels and space to put clothes. It's fine for 3/4 people Our boat was directly on the pedestrian side of the canal, during the night there were several drunk people walking close by and making noise
Summary: Nice accommodation for 3/4 people, not more
