J&H were away on holiday & the other hosts were around when we reached. Hence, neighbor Grace welcomed us and led us to the boat. However, the way was too complicated for us to remember and we were lost on our way back. Luckily our host, Sarah, pointed out a direct way for us to reach the train station.
Pros: Cramped bed that can fit 2 adults who sleep like logs and remain as logs. Legs have to be stuffed under the book shelf.
Inaccurate reflection of walking distance to train station-should be 20 mins instead of 10 mins.
Restrictions towards shower/water usage. Hard to control the hot water while showering.
No TV. Rather bad heating facilities. Small living room area filled up by opening 2 32-inch suitcases and 1 umbrella.
Could be cleaner. Saw lots of spiders around and in the houseboat.
Cons: Novelty of staying in a houseboat. Squirrels, swans, ducks and foxes as neighbours. Hosts provided guides on nearby cafes, restaurants, bars for us.
