After hours of searching you have finally found it: the ultimate holiday destination. It turns out on arrival that that nice hotel boat does not quite meet expectations.
Rosalie (32), mother of Pim (1):
“I’m not averse to a little luxury, but my husband Bart doesn’t think it’s necessary to spend a lot of money on hotels on holiday. When we made a tour through America last year – with Pim in my stomach – Bart suggested we sleep in the YMCA in San Francisco. Because, he judged based on the photos on the internet, that hostel may be basic, but it is clean.
Great idea from you dear
Not so. Retching, he lay next to me in a rancid bed. The whole room was sticky and there was an inch thick layer of dust and grime. Initially Bart wanted to immediately turn around, but I didn’t take it. He wanted so badly to sleep here, so we did. Since then I have been arranging all our overnight stays.”

Anna (36), mother of Lucile (11) and Floris (9)
“For a romantic weekend away with my husband Maikel, I booked a room on a hotel boat. Only shower and toilet were in the hallway, the room was tiny and the bed too short. Passers-by must have torn themselves around Maikel’s feet, which stuck out the window all night.”
