Value for the money
Pros:

The location was perfect. The staff is friendly.

Cons:

There was a weird smell in the corridors, and the walls are so thin you can hear pretty much every conversation next door.
Also, there are no USB-C ports in the rooms. I get that the building is old, but it’s 2026, they should’ve updated something as basic as that.

Convenient and comfortable
Pros:

Great location within walking distance of many cafes, coffee shops, and tourist attractions. The bed is comfortable.

Cons:

The location is a historic building and due to this, and the location near a tunnel, is VERY noisy. Ear plugs are provided but you may also need noise canceling headphones.

Functional cramped stay
Pros:

Location was pretty good in downtown, the bar had live music and nice vibes. Easy check in

Cons:

Room was exceptionally small which I guess I should’ve realised earlier, also faced into brick wall. Nowhere to put anything and barely any space for luggage or to walk around the bed. The street was a bit dodgy as some unhoused people hanging out in the car park opposite

Voor een citytrip een prima hotel
Pros:

De locatie

Cons:

Geluidsoverlast van de straat en de tunnel. Erg gehorig door het grote raam met dunne glazen. Oordoppen aan te raden (zijn ook beschikbaar in de hotelkamer)

Pros:

Very beautiful interior in old historical building with new furniture.
Thanks for the European type of bedding.
I had some problems with an AC, staff gave me a new room and was very helpful.
Nice bar on 2d floor

Cons:

It’s a little bit loud area, but you need to expect that while living in the city centre. Not the hotels fault

Not worth the cake for money.
Pros:

Location and decor

Cons:

Room was dark, not very clean, with hair from previous guests on the bathroom floor. The toilet clogged and overflew with a regular use on the first time and there was no phone to call reception.
No breakfast, no gym.
