Asile Flottant

"Boat UK85\n\nWe had a great stay.\nThe location and the boats are beautiful.\nWe received a very friendly welcome.\nThe boat was very smartly furnished.\nIt was very special.\n\nThe location is fantastic. Nice and quiet.\nIt's easy to get into the city centre by bus or on foot by ferry. The restaurants and cafés in the neighbourhood can be highly recommended.\n\nBut, the Boat UK85 smell!!!\n\nThe smell and vapours of diesel were unbearable. The whole boat was filled with dangerous vapours. Don't think it's healthy. All our clothes still smell of it.\nThere is a need for action.\nGladly again, but not if the UK85 stinks like this\n\nI would like to give it 5 stars.\nBut when it comes to the smell at most 1 star\n\nP.S. No feedback from the owners about the situation"

"What a special place this is. It reminded me of my childhood in a mobile home in Wexford. While you're not short of everything you need, it is a little rough and ready, but this is what you should expect when booking a barge. It's not a 5 star hotel after all but it definitely deserves a 5 star rating here.The boats are beautiful and have a proper history behind them and are moored in a lovely post industrial area that has been turned into a beautiful, peaceful and serene spot almost in the heart of the city. There's a quirky bar that's very popular and a hidden garden which has been artfully constructed from materials that have been, pre loved, shall we say.\nThe staff, when we saw them, were very friendly and helpful.\nThe area it's situated in, is an up and coming, soon to be gentrified place and we loved the cool bars and restaurants close by.\nGetting into the city is super easy and buses and trains are regular as clockwork. The longest we had to wait was 8 minutes and that's how long it takes to get to central station. Fantastic.\nAfter a busy and hectic day in the city this is a perfect place to relax and have a drink or meal at the bar or on the deck of your boat. Did I mention the sauna on the jetty? Perfect to unwind in and then jump into the canal or the plunge bath.\nAll in all I'd stay here again in a heartbeat."

"Absolutely stunning views on peaceful, beautifully designed boats. Our family gained peace and energy while we stated here. The hostess is also very friendly and keeps everything very clean. Can not recommend enough."
