Overall 'Canal Experience'.
We haven't applied for an 'official' tourist rating scheme.
We feel they are too expensive and we don't think a chocolate on your pillow really means that much.
To us, our own customer ratings are the most important measure of our success and your satisfaction,
and we will strive to maintain these high standards combined with a personal and friendly service.
