Disliked: Room comfort
Still swaying
Boat very small, 1st night toilet wouldn't flush, maintenance came but problem persisted owner allowed us to move to other boat the next day, this boat then took a lean over to one side, this resulted in having to hold any cooking pan continually so they didn't fall to floor (no guide rail around cooking area) on the whole looks good in photo's but no proper thought put into usage.
