In general, excellent and pleasant stay
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Location also very pleasant and convenient, with comfortable and frequent trans nearby for easy moving around to the sites in the city.

Cons:

We are older, and fortunately still sufficiently agile. But I believe the stairway in our room is not suitable and can be dangerous for most older people. Please check the ages of potential guests in room 271.

Beautiful building, ideal location in Oosterpark
Pros:

The rooms were beautiful renovated. The access to the park is fantastic specially with kids

Cons:

The baby bed are not comfortable. Either too soft for the first one or not convenient for the second where our son was throwing all objects through it.
