Perfect location and good value for money
Pros:

Location is perfect, managers are friendly and welcoming. Room was clean, the stairs are narrow but so authentic- I don’t understand why people are complaining in the reviews, this is an advantage and not a downside, making experience more local. My room even had a nice view and I listened to clock tower nearby. There is a sink right in the room what was useful because I expected fully shared bathroom.

Cons:

It can be hot during the summer peaks - there is no AC/fan

Great Location, Friendly Staff, and Delicious Breakfast
Pros:

The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They let us check in early, which we really appreciated, and took the time to explain everything about the city and recommend places to visit. The room was spotless, and the breakfast was delicious. Overall, it was a 10/10 stay! Thank you to the entire staff for making my stay so enjoyable. I would happily stay here again.

Cons:

The only downside was the stairs if you're traveling with a large suitcase. If you're a backpacker or traveling light, it won't be an issue at all. Other than that, I honestly had no complaints. I absolutely loved this place and would definitely stay here again.

Pros:

Hotel Torenzicht jest zlokalizowany na samej czerwonej ulicy, wieczorem gwar i mnóstwo ludzi spacerujących ale w pokoju nie było tego aż tak słychać. Mieliśmy pokój na 3 piętrze, wchodzi się po wąskich schodkach

Cons:

Bardzo mała łazienka z prysznicem i brak w nich wentylacji, ale dało się wziąć prysznic
