Pros:

I loved the walk of one hour from Amsterdam Central Station to the hotel location on Cruquius island. (Bus and tram are also available, but the weather was great) It is close to a fantastic Italian restaurant called "La Contessa". The views of the harbour are wonderful.

Pros:

Lovely rooms with comfortable beds and high ceilings.
Breakfast was fine- good selection available each day.

Cons:

Shower didn’t drain efficiently so water overflowed from the shower tray. Had to keep switching off the shower to avoid this.

Pros:

Location was really nice and quiet. Some nice bakeries / cafés around, but most of them were only open from 9 onwards and closed on the morning of a public holiday.

Schönes Hotel aber leider etwas abgelegen für einen Städtetrip
Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schön und wir hatten ein geräumiges Zimmer mit toller Aussicht. Das Personal war ebenfalls sehr freundlich.
Ein Parkhaus ist direkt im Hotel, dieses hatten wir im Vorhinein online gebucht, was günstiger war.

Cons:

Leider gibt es keinen Fön auf dem Zimmer, das habe ich persönlich so noch nie erlebt.
Ebenfalls zu bemängeln ist, dass die Klimaanlage zentral gesteuert ist und man nur die Möglichkeit hat einen Ventilator zu starten, bei 30 grad war es nachts leider zu warm im Zimmer. Die Möglichkeit ein Fenster zu öffnen gibt es nicht.
Das Hotel liegt an einem Hafen, es ist sehr ruhig allerdings doch weit ab von der Stadt. Nachts gibt es mit dem öffentlichen Nahverkehr keine Möglichkeit mehr ins Hotel zu kommen.

Wir hatten einen schönen Kurzurlaub. Alles war gut und in Ordnung.
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt gleich am Wasser. Dort konnten wir von einem Holzsteg aus baden gehen, super schön. Mit dem Bus ist man in einer Viertelstunde im Zentrum. Die Zimmer waren sauber und gut.
