Customer reviewInterested travelers should treat this boat hostel as a form of camping - no toilets/showers on the boat (available in the port facilities). Pros: it was a boat, which was different and kind of cool. Good security, very quiet environment. Cons: Place was very dirty and smelly, wifi not available on boat (only in port facility), kitchen limited to microwave (and tiny sink and refrigerator) but no cleaning liquid, dish towels, bowls, cutlery, etc. Had the place been clean, none of the above (except for wifi access) might have mattered but it was the kind of place where you just didn't really want to touch anything. |

Ralitsa AtanasovaIt is an interesting and different place to stay in, if that is what you are looking for. The port complex is nice, the facilities (toilet, showers) are clean. They are shared with all port visitors but at the time we stayed there, there weren't any people so we had them to ourselves. There is a beach nearby. BUT: as said, the boat is far form the city centre and there aren't many places to go to or eat in, except for the big commercial centre, about 10 minutes walk away. The boat is quite small so you have to bend over to go around most of the cabin. It keeps swaying and creaking so you may find it hard to sleep and especially if it is windy as it was during our stay, the whole boat starts to shake. The last night it rained and in the morning the roof leaked. |

Eilidh HanrattyThe Port itself was great, most of the area is new and some still under construction. The port is surrounded with interesting, modern architecture and has a very urban feel. The beach near by is very nice. The facilities in the main building where the boat is docked (showers, toilet) were clean and very nice. The boat however was dirty and very smelly. The toilet on the boat was blocked and out of order and despite a note on the door appoligising for the fact that it was out of use had obviously been left uncleaned for quite some time. As the boat is small this was unbearable and very unhygenic, as the toilet door did not fully cover the entrance to the toilet.Although clean linen and towels were provided the living and sleeping environtment was thick with dust, ground in dirt on the windows, walls and floor. Food crumbs were found on polished surfaces and deck seating area. Also mouldy food in the fridge and a dirty glass with a dead fly in it! Not good enough. The seating area on the deck was filthy and the cushions were old, tattered and soiled. I don't mind staying in basic accomodation and have stayed in many hostels in britan and europe but this was unacceptable. My friend and I stayed one night on the boat and then asked to be moved to one of the groups other hostels which was much better. The member of the staff who helped us sort it out was more than helpful although the boat was not her responsibility. |
