9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (5 reviews)
"Pros: Einfacher Check-In, sauber, sehr schön eingerichtet. Toller Ausblick aus den Fenstern. Der Strand gegenüber ist einen Besuch wert. Cons: Leider fehlt bei diesem Boot eine Möglichkeit, draußen zu sitzen. Es gibt keinen Steg und keine Stühle. Das ist schade, gerade bei gutem Wetter. Auf Grund der Größe schaukelt es bei Wind oder Schiffverkehr. Für das, was man bekommt, etwas sehr teuer."
