De Boot Reviews
Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: This was a quirky stay that we enjoyed very much.
Negative: We were in a separate boat, a couple of hundred metres away from main boat - this isn't a complaint but it is just that this wasn't clear to us when we booked.
Check it out before you stay.
Summary: Quirky but enjoyable.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: We liked the idea of staying somewhere else than hotel/apartment. Different experience definitely.
Negative: The yard where this ship is located is full of stuff like some dump yard. Grass was covered with poop (animals) so it’s basically impossible to walk without stepping in. Sleeping arrengement inside the boat was rather extreme: pillow next to a toilet and rather narrow beds. No air, very hot and full of spiders. We needed to clean spider webs before going to bed. Kitchen area was okei only washing dishes was difficult a bit.
I didn’t notice while booking that linens need to be rented extra!
Pricing is definitely off - so expensive!!!!!
Summary: Seems like a fun experience but actually wasn’t!
