The location is great and the cabins which face the river are fantastic with full-length windows which are very relaxing to open and look out of at night with a beer... However, these are first come first served and if you get a cabin on the other side you are facing the Berlin Wall with hordes of tourists taking selfies. However, this proximity to the Berlin Wall is historic and there are several budget places to eat and drink in this area. From kebab shops to the food court at the Eastside mall which has everything.

This part of Berlin is not the cleanest which adds to the charm in some ways. There are also lots of young people sitting outside on The grass all day eating fast food which attracts vermin. I did see a couple of rats running around just outside the boat, but this didn't bother me, however, I was sure to shut my enormous windows when I went out...

The location is great, interesting neighbourhood to walk around, lots of good cafes, bars and restaurants nearby and good transport links. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and the mattress was comfy.

The bed is installed VERY high up, a bit over a meter high I think. It came up to my chest and I'm 1.87m, with nothing provided to help you climb in and out of it. It was very difficult to get in and out of. The light in the shared bathrooms also turns off very quickly (after about 90 seconds) which is annoying when showering.

Superb location near the vivid nightlife area, 8min walk from the nearest U-tube station. Surprisingly quiet given the expected clientele. Very clean. Comfy beds. Temperature was just right - not too hot, not too cold.

There was nothing I disliked, just a note for those with different expectations: I was looking for an unconventional accommodation and it perfectly fit my expectations. Boats are not known for featuring lavish space or high ceilings. Quite small for those who may want more room. Definitely very crampy for three (the maximum number of people the room could accommodate).

Friendly/helpful/responsive staff, comfortable bed, relaxing experience sleeping on the water

My room was on the south side of the boat, and I did not fully think through that it could get very hot on an exposed (no shade) metal ship, and in did (it was about 87°F/31°C). In fact, if it had gotten any hotter I would have had to at to stay at a different hotel. I moved the mattress down onto the floor beneath the lofted bed frame, which was quiet and few degrees cooler. That said, I think investing in (at least) some wide canvas awnings that can be lowered to shade the boat on hot days should be seriously considered.

Good place quality/price. The location was perfect, close to Berlin Wall and Oberbaum Bridge, with very good connections to the center and airport, you could get to the city center in about 20-25 minutes. Many shops and restaurants nearby, Lidl, Mall East Side Berlin, cozy cafes and icecream shops. The boat's terrace was a really nice place to sit and relax, to enjoy the surroundings. The room and the common spaces, terrace and toilets were clean. The personnel was nice and helpful, giving us any information we needed and also things like a hairdryer and umbrella. Because of the late check in, it was possible to leave your luggage before checking in, which was perfect.

Little space in the cabin, but we knew from the begging. The bed was too high and couldn't reach it without a chair if you are not a very tall person, so I got a bruise from that (we had a chair, but it was better to use it for other stuff since the space was small). The fan wasn't enough for the temperature in the cabin, you needed to open the window or the door to feel better. Many tourists in the area, both during the day and night (Berlin Wall close and some people remained overnight on the nearby green space), however, it wasn't a noisy zone.

Great location, friendly staff, good value for money, late check in was okay, love the whole concept of having a hotel on a boat, plenty of seating available to just chill.

More feedback than criticisms but a black out blind for windows would have made it better as the curtains didn't cover window completely and let alot of light in. The pillows are horrible and provide no support for head or neck. The staff were quick to provide me with an extra one though. The room was super hot on the first night. If staying here in warmer weather, a fan would be important for general comfort. If I were on the landside I think my score would be considerably different but fortunately had a waterside room.

Amazing location (just a step away from a huge mall on one side, a train station on the other, streets filled with restaurants offering cuisine from around the world, and the stunning river and bridge). We stayed on the river side with a 4-month-old baby and a 3-year-old, and it was very quiet (we could hear the train passing over the bridge a little, but for us, it was an attraction). I understand that it was also quiet on the other side, and the staff make sure to maintain that. We took a room for three with shared bathrooms on the floor above, which were impeccably clean at all times. The room is very practical and meant only for sleeping, but everything around makes up for it. Fun seating areas on the boat with breathtaking views

everything was super for us : )

Great location, unique hotel, close to public transport and bars and restaurants.

Check in was at 4pm and we didn’t get our room until 4pm exactly, we arrived about 10am from an overnight train so we were tired, hungry and needed a shower but there was no facilities on the hotel to accommodate us only free coffee, no where comfortable to relax etc, the cleaners finished cleaning the rooms at 1pm, the hotel staff then spent the next 3 hours cleaning the rooms even more, didn’t make sense really, every hotel we have ever stayed in has always managed to give us a room of some description before the check in time to freshen up, shower, rest etc.

I loved the river view, as well as the possibility to spend time on the deck. The beds were comfortable and there wasn't much noise from the street (the facility warned us before coming that it could be noisy at night due to the location in a party district), maybe because our room was from the side of the river. In the mornings there was free coffee in the reception, which we also enjoyed. The crew was friendly and the stay was really nice. Our room was clean, too. It's a great and interesting place to stay, I really recommend it!

A very pleasant and well located floating hostel close to Ost Bahnhof. I've stayed here before and found it very friendly and useful. Despite the lively area I've not been bothered by noise even with the window open (generally needed as for me its always quite warm on board). Shared facilities always seem clean and well equipped. Rooms are basic but spacious and beds comfortable. Very handy if you are just passing through for a night, if I was staying longer I'd probably upgrade to the hotel sister ship next door.

All very good for the price. Difficulty getting the Wifi signal.
