This is really fabulous way to spend some time in Berlin. Its not a central location but also not too far from town and some great clubs and restaurants. The waterfront provides a great route for a run - 5, 10km or more if you want. I really loved being on the river and was a bit worried when the weather turned bad but the heating kept everything warm and dry. The boat's kitchen is brilliantly designed and well equipped. Generally a great stay and highly recommended.
