Fun alternative and great location
If you can adjust to the close quarters on a boat, this is a great alternative to an apartment. There is always something to watch in St. Katharines Dock and the security and marina facilities are excellent. I wouldn’t recommend the boat for young children but at 80 and 78, my sister and I managed just fine. The beds were surprisingly comfortable. The property management responded quickly and courteously to our questions. Thank you for a fun week.

Great location but a little bumpy
Location is prime and it's fun staying on a boat. Had problems with water supply twice due to hookup/water supply problems, which were fixed within hours both times but still engendered some anxiety and inconvenience. Communication was quick with Altido, but sometimes confused and incomplete. Overall, would stay again but with awareness of things being slightly confused at times.
