Eltjo was very nice and welcoming, but we did have a few issues staying here and left after night 1 instead of staying for the full 3 nights. It was mostly because of our expectations and partly because of the experience. When we first got there Eltjon helped us right away and let us drop our bags when the room wasn't ready. When we returned we were impressed with the charm of the boat and took one of the best naps of our lives as the boat rocked us to sleep. However, after we went out for dinner and returned around 9:30, things started to go downhill for us. First, the boat was much further away than we expected it to be. It was about a 15-20 minute walk just to get to the edge of all of the excitement of the city. I knew we wanted something relaxing, but being that far away made us feel disconnected from restaurants and conveniences. We only had an area the boat was in and not the full location prior to booking and for us, we wanted to be closer. Also, we were there in April and it was cold and the wind was BRUTAL so our walk home wasn't pleasant at night. When we got to the boat we couldn't figure out how to turn on the heat, and even with knocking downstairs and emailing the hosts we couldn't get ahold of them and froze all night. Not what we wanted at all. The other thing for us was we didn't realize just how "historic" the boat was. The bathroom is very tiny - which is fine - but you are not allowed to flush ANY toilet paper which ends up being pretty gross. Plus, when you do flush anything, it's the most scary sound in the world and we ended up "letting yellow mellow" as to not wake up the entire dock. Plus, it's just a thin glass door that separates the bathroom from the rest of the room and you can hear EVERYTHING. So the whole bathroom situation was just not for us. It was at some point in the night, as we were freezing, that we decided we were going to cut our losses and book a real hotel. We woke up super early and packed to go, and that's when I saw stains all over the bed we had just slept in. Made me feel really gross. We didn't even mention it to the owners because our Uber had already arrived, but I took pictures just in case. I know the room wasn't ready when we arrived because it still needed to be cleaned and we were told there was a cleaning crew who did it, but finding stains on the white sheets just really grossed me out. While I wouldn't stay here again, I also wouldn't tell other people not to stay here if they wanted too. Just know what you're getting in for. It's a very...
