Considering the Hotel Roemerstein Mainz in Mainz?

Museum fur Antike Schiffahrt by dprosia
This is an interesting museum with a lot of roman boats that have been found in the area. It will not take a lot of time to go through this museum. If you want to fill an hour before heading out of town then this would be a good option. The museum is located on the south edge of town so it will take you about 10 minutes to walk there from the Dom (maybe 15 - 20 if you stroll). It's a nice walk since you have to head through the old part of town. One of the reasons it won't take long to go through the museum is because the lables are all written in German. I am an American living in Mainz and although I have been learning German, I am not fluent. I've complained that Mainz is enough of a tourist town that the museums should provide English lables, to no avail. I believe it is free.
