I stopped about 10 years ago and they had no cannabis signs everywhere but the whole place stunk of weed, the botel itself is alright, they used to have a free hardcore porn channel as well.

Stayed there when it was still close to the chinese restaurant place,smoking then was not a problem,narrow corridors'thought I was in an alice in wonderland scenario as I walked thru them,you can hear your next door neighbours very clearly,we where pretty high up and the view was of tiny people in tiny boats sailing past,and you sort of had to stand on tip toe to look out properly as far as I can recall.,in regards to the porn channel all we had was a movie that was on constantly it seemed of a very large clitoris.Did the job mind you and was cheap at the time,plust they had lifts to the floors

Thanks for the description.
Doesn't sound too bad. Will report back on the large clitoris lol.
Just sounds like a place to crash after a day on the grass. That's all I need

the one thing that you need to bear in mind with the new location is that the ferry that goes closest to where it is moored is not a 24 hour a day one.
I think the last one goes at about 1am and it starts again at about six am.
I'm not 100% sure about this but in the past have been stuck in that area after parties waiting a long time for the first ferry back to the city.
It can still be reached via one of the other ferries and then a long walk, or by taxi if you get stranded.
Hope you have a good trip.

That's a good point nel z bub. Thanks for that.
I've read that there is a shuttle bus at night though?
I'll have to ask about this when I check in.
It might just be the case of coming back about midnight with a big bag of weed and see the night out like that. Sounds good to me

It is a bit out there nowadays but there is a free ferry during the day and shuttle buses through the night. It's apparently a 15 min journey on the ferry. Will just need to ensure that I keep stocked up on weed in the evening and I'll be alright.

Ah if they give you a good deal well good luck to you mate! were went even booked up for the botel at first when we went! we were booked with the accro but it fell threw so the travel agent had to put us in the AB,& the rates were much more than we paid i did notice that right off lol KD.
Stayed here in 06 when it was still in it's old location, they had no smoking signs posted around but ever floor smelled of weed. I toked happily out the window for the few days without any problems!
Stayed here last week. Good for the price. No smoking in rooms but hugh windows open right up and the top deck at the arse end has an open air place with tables, chairs etc. Plenty of smoking here. Good buffet breakfasts from 0700-1030. Decent bar that does burgers, toasties etc. Vending machines for munchies and drinks. Nice and quiet at night.
Ferries from 0600-0015 to the boat. After that take the all night ferry directly across the IJ and a hotel mini-bus runs shuttles all night back to the boat.
Porn movies still there although the huge clitoris must have retired.
Like Boner & Kingdoc, I too stayed many moons ago. To be honest, if they hadn't moved, I would be staying there. (That is, if Voyagers is filled up)
Let us know about getting around to & fro from the new local. Have fun
