    Lots of noise from the street. Bring earplugs. Very warm room - but it was also 25'C outside.

    Lovely room, although bit old looking, but it had it's charm.

    Very tiny rooms and facilities, and a bit uncomfortable bathroom space, but that was expected. Not for the fainthearted, as the entrances and hallways are narrow and small.

    Extremely good location. Room was cool and quiet in this period (spring). Very cosy and neat.

    The room is a bit tight, I could feel a little bit the movement of the ship to which I luckily got used to after some minutes. The bathroom is also tight, I had to really 'play' with the space provided. There were not enough plugs for charging everything.

    Great location, it is easily available from Gamla Stan (10 mins walking) but you can see the sunset and a beautiful view from the hills above of the ship. View from the window is amazing. Breakfast was delicious and with many options from cereals, sandwiches, toasts, ect. The bathroom is just enough for 1 person. You can really feel the atmosphere of sleeping in a cabin. Beds are comfortable and the heating is enough.

    Remove the old carpet in the rooms ! and refresh the paint in the room as well

    A FABULOUS Lobby/ bar/ room for leisure…THAT, is why I went. The staff was really helpful as well … the room ( although it is a ship, small room to expect… small window so not too much of a view… but to expect as well… small bed , but really comfortable… they need to change carpet ( they should just leave the wooden floor to fit with the ship anyway) in the Maine room, I don’t mind and even like the old carpet… it goes with the rustic look of the inside ( look like a movie set some how) And the white wall in the room… could need a refresh ( perhaps keep them all red to keep with the theme “as the doors do not look dirty)… not that it looks dirty… buuuut could need a refresher. The shower and bathroom area are ok( “shared, and no private bathroom” although private little stalls” not my cup of tea, but did for my one night stay ) and stay there for the ship experience and great public area. I would not bring my mom for sure . But if you like a specific experience… this could be a place to visit ( you need a specific taste and do not a “Hilton” type… you will be sooo disappointed… But if looo for something different… and goes with a open mind…you may just love it. If you don’t book… go definitely for a drink or meal. Location is great… although a tiny walk from the subway 8-10 minutes… easy walk and you see the ship so the distance doesn’t feel too bad… and the subway is at one of my favorite are of Stockholm:)

    Perfect location, breakfast buffet was delicious and had many options. It's good to hang out at the tables in the upper floor, since the rooms are pretty tiny (at least ours was). It was uncomplicated to leave our luggage for a couple of hours after checkout.

    Small rooms, not a lot of space and the bunk beds didn’t have any protection from not falling down and also very close to the ceiling so it was hard to get down. you couldn’t sit up straight because you would hit your head.

    Excellent location, friendly staff very helpful. Good stay for the experience. It was clean in the common bathroom.

    Would be nice to access a hair dryer on the same boat instead of having to go get it from the main boat, especially since it's so cold :) Challenging to get Uber here because of the location - just note you'll have to walk down to where cars can stop - they can't stop in front of the boat hotel because it's a main road. Difficult to get luggage down the steps on check-in. If you have just a small luggage or backpack it's easy though.

    I was really impressed with this hotel, honestly one of my favorite stays just for how unique, cozy and clean it was! 👏 It's a unique stay but also quite practical - the location is nice, you can walk to Gamla Stan easily and it's very pretty! The room is spacious, warm and cozy - the bed was very very comfortable! Appreciate that there is space to sit and big mirrors too. The common area on the main boat was also super cozy. Loved the views from the room. There boat didn't budge, it's calm and relaxing. Shared bathrooms were nice and clean. On the white boat where I stayed downstairs, one bathroom is nice and spacious. (The other one, the shower is too small, but still good for a boat) Great that they have locked luggage storage for guests who arrive before check in.

    The location was perfect since I was going to a fetish club event close to the hotel so two it was two minutes from the venue. Food was reasonably cheap, regular bar food with some vegetarian options. I tried the deal with 10 nuggets and a beer of choice for 149 sek and it was good. It is cosy, simple, cheap and comfortable so the perfect place for a weekend with friends or somewhere cheap to stay after a night out. Breakfast was good, egg, a small selection of bread, the regular assortment of toppings, hard boileg eggs, yoghurts and serial. It is not a big continental breakfast like on a Sheraton or Hilton hotel, but everything you need and a maybe a tiny bit more for resonable prices. Its a cosy boat with a 60ies movie atmosphere to it with somewhere around 20 small cabins. Close to 100years old and well maintained so the vintage feeling is intact. The size of the rooms are like on a holiday ferry, no more, no less but with a little bit cosier design since the boat You don't get your own shower in the room but will find shared bathrooms and showers at the end of the same corridor as the rooms. As good as you'll get in the price range.

    Breakfast was a bit underwhelming. You could hear your neighbours quite clearly through the walls. Top bunk bed quite close to the ceiling, so anyone over 5 foot needs to take care not to hit their heads.

    Staff were very friendly. Facilities were decent. It is close to the metro. It's within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Price was very reasonable.
