We had a great stay in the beautiful old boat. It really is an amazing location, with a fantastic atmosphere. Quiet, but never boring. We loved watching the boats and barges on the Maas and just hanging out in the boat. Plenty of space for a family of 4, decent beds (including linen, pillows and covers), well equipped kitchen. WiFi was perhaps a little slow, but who cares? Rotterdam is a great city, lots to see. The tram system is perhaps the best way to get around the city, and there are a couple of stops not far from the boat. Also a fully stocked supermarket and a pharmacy, couple of playgrounds, etc. Eric is a great host; responsive, hospitable and relaxed. He lives in a separate apartment in the other end of the boat, but we never felt intruded upon - he is very tactful.

All in all, a pleasant and unique experience. Very much recommended!
