four emails sent between 4 weeks and three days prior to departure asking for door codes, as we were likely to be late. No reply received to any of them. Called number day before departure several times and was told number was not in service. Sent fifth email on day of departure and finally received an email reply telling us the door codes. Explained this to staff this morning, who claimed they hadn't received any but the final email, and said I should have phoned!!! I did!!!!!

Glorified floatlng youth hotile
The welcome girl, was not very welcoming. A smile would have been nice. The toilet made a grinding noise every 30 mins. I felt the place was more suitable for youngers that like living together in a glorified youth hostile. View from bed and toilet was the best.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Unable to get past the gate to park our vehicle. Fortunately someone unrelated to the property was able to get us through. Once we parked, we were unable to get into the property. Had another guest not arrived shortly before we did, we would have been unable to get in. There was no one to greet or check us in. A staff member arrived in the morning to prep a breakfast. Most unusual check-in process I’ve ever experienced. Had we known this in advance, we would not have booked this reservation. Our travel partners and other patrons also experienced the same frustration we did. Other than that, the barge was nicely appointed, our room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was simple but delicious.
Only one hair dryer in the hotel is not enough.
A lot of spiders are on the boat.

Petit déjeuner était inclus mais rien de prévu , on a essayé de joindre les hôtes personne ne nous a jamais répondu. Il faisait extrêmement chaud, peu d’air et un seul ventilateur pour 4 .
Nuit très compliquée
De passage à Nantes, nous n’avons même pas cherché ailleurs !!!!! Nous y étions venus 2 nuits en février 2024 et avons tellement aimé que nous avons voulu faire découvrir ce magnifique lieu à notre fille ….. On y vient et on y revient…..Tout y est superbe…
Underbart boende i Nantes! Trevligt bemötande & fint rum. Frukosten serverades varje morgon, annars fanns det möjlighet att använda köket & känna sig som hemma. Båten är tillräckligt stor för att en inte ska behöva trängas med andra gäster. Ljuvligt att kunna äta middag ute på däck efter en dag på stan.
En liten promenad till spårvagnen som tar en direkt in till centrala Nantes. Perfekt boende med familj!
Cadre très agréable, au bord de l'eau, chambre très confortable, manque la climatisation partiellement compensée par un ventilateur. Personnel très accueillant
