    The room smelled terribly of cigarettes. The window wouldn't open to let the smell out. There was a kettle, but no cups. The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night, a false fire alarm. It scared my daughter terribly, and I got a migraine from the stress.

    The sound isolation is poor (but that's expected). We could hear the neighbours upstairs talking and walking. Also it was a little cold in the room

    Loved the location, the staff was friendly, and the room was very large in size.

    Noisy - could hear couple having an argument in the adjoining room, child running around in the room above. Also, no kettle in the room when we arrived. We were given one when requested, but had to ask every day for a top-up of teabags and milk cartons.

    Nice view, fairly spacious room.

    Good home base for getting around Rotterdam; quite basic; spend time away from the hotel during day
    • Business trip

    • Double Room

    The room looked "stern" or "spartan". Closing windows is not easy (you need to lift them to be able to do so and they are a little heavy). Also my TV was out of order, which had apparently been the case for a while because the staff said so when I told them. I also feel that the desk is in the wrong place in the room (much to close to the door to the room). That may also be due to the absence of power outlets in other parts of the room where the desk would fit a lot better. There is really no lobby to speak of and they don't serve breakfast. So you are not expected to spend much time in the hotel.

    The room is spacious as well as the bathroom. My room had a view of the park on the opposite side of the street, which I liked. There is an Asian food market in the same "building" as well as a Chinese restaurant, but both are separate enterprises. There are several places in the park where one can go for food and drinks (not cheap and they tend to close early compared to Southern European standards). The location very near to the park, to the Maastunnel. the watertaxi and public transport makes it a good "home base" for getting around the wider Rotterdam area.

    Hotel looks quite old, rooms and bathrooms looks like they were not renovated for more than 25 years.

    Well-located, cheap compared to other opportunities, staff helpful (we were not satisfied with the first room given to us and they directly change it so we are happy with it)

    I had booked and paid for a room with sea view but got one facing the car park. Beds are hard but I solved it by putting the two over mattresses on top of each other. No room service in 5 days was unexpected but they replaced towels and emptied the bin…

    I attended a conference and the other hotels were very expensive or very far from Rotterdam. So I felt the deal was good in the circumstances and was positively surprised after reading many bad comments. The room was spacious and the location is good. It’s also an interesting concept staying on a Chinese boat in Rotterdam. The park nearby is very nice.

    Old property, Asian restaurant at ground floor so you smell the food all the time. You also smell the fuel of the boats and can hear the noise during the day

    Good location, and big rooms. Quite during the night and nice view

    The room, even though was clean, had a permanent smell of cigarettes, probably because of the carpet. We didn't realize it was a smoker room when we booked, and that is on us, but the fact the windows couldn't be opened at all made the smell very pungent, made a bit worst by the fact it was somewhat hot when we were there. I would suggest the hotel to make a bit clearer they have both smoker and non smoker rooms so people can chose. Also, the lack of outlets was a bit of a problem, since we had a few things to charge and only 2 outlests in the whole room where available (the others where taken by the A.C. unit and the tv.)

    The hotel is quite nice, the location was good for a leisure trip, with a bus stop (both normal and hop on hop off) right in front of the hotel and one of the touristic atractions of the city pretty close. They also have a park right in front, making it a quite nice place to relax as well. The hotel was clean, and the room was spacious, specially considering we were in the water. The bed was quite comfortable.
