"Our stay was very relaxing. The houseboat is great and it's very pleasant to spend time right on the water. The marina where the houseboat is moored has been newly built and offers a great infrastructure. The marina is quite remote, the next larger town Karlshagen is about 9 km away. Peenemünde is approx. 2.5 km away, but doesn't offer that much."

The Edwardian Manchester, A Radisson Collection Hotel

8/10 Good
"Very nice standard room. Shower was leaking from the head connection. Hotel is in great location close to Albert square, Deansgate etc. I was disappointed to find they have changed the hotel bar to a Japanese themed one since our last stay. No draft beers on tap. Disappointed. Also charged service for two drinks!!"
