Gut schlafen im Gefängnis
Pros:

Optimale Lage, nettes Personal, gutes Frühstück, interessante Location .
Das Zimmer war schön gestaltet.

Cons:

Wir hatten das Zimmer K10.
Wie auch in anderen Bewertungen schon geschrieben wurde, ist die Gestaltung von Toilette und Dusche suboptimal. Es funktioniert alles aber sehr eng.
Kein Haken für das Handtuch am Waschbecken und keine Möglichkeit die Duschtücher zum trocknen aufzuhängen.

Een hele fijne ervaring en zeer klantvriendelijk en mooie kamers, uniek!
Pros:

Persoonlijke vriendelijke benadering. Ik was met mijn team van 12 medewerkers op pad. Iedereen had een eigen kamer en ik had aan de frontoffice gevraagd of ze een persoonlijke kaartje en een klein presentje van mij op de kamers wilde leggen en dat hebben ze gedaan wat een service, ik ben er heel enthousiast over en het is ook nog eens een heel erg mooi hotel en prachtige kamers. Echt uniek.

Prachtig hotel vlakbij het centrum
Pros:

De ligging was perfect, vlakbij het centrum.
Prachtig pand met hele mooie kamers.
Personeel was super vriendelijk en gezellig.
Ontbijt was heerlijk, alles was volop aanwezig
Tip voor parkeren: kies de openbare parkeerplaats, 5 minuutjes lopen voor € 6,00 per dag.

Cons:

De toilet had geen deur. Wij vinden toiletbezoek toch echt wel privé. Zou makkelijk met een schuifdeur op te lossen zijn.
