    It was a wonderful experience, the room is perfectly equipped that you can forget you are on a boat. Great location with easy access to the center, but the atmosphere ensures a relaxing time. The breakfast was delicious! Highly recommended!

    The rooms were lovely and was something different to sleep on a boat instead of a hotel.

Boat
The boat has two rooms. One at the back (the Captains room) and on at the front (The sailors room). The original build date boat is 1960, but the renovation to a houseboat started at 2005.
I'm not always available or on the boat. So it is best that you send me a text the day before check-in when you would arrive. It can be possible that I have to do the check-in by phone, we'll see each other probably later that day.
The boat is situated in a 10 min walk to the center. The location itself is on the outskirts between the center and the 'Brugse Poort'.
