A nightmare
Cons:

I got stuck in the lift going up, I did manage to get the lift to go down to the bottom where I contacted the owner. He implied this has not happened before and it was something I had done. We then went in the lift which broke down half way between floors and I had to crawl out. After being repaired, it also happened again with my wife and I in there. The door hook on the bedroom door fell off when you put a coat on it. The heating broke down when the snow was falling, and the last thing was the S bend leading from the bathroom sink came away from the wall. The hotel staff did nothing to sort this out even after we had asked them to telephone a plumber. The owner said that this does not happen on its own and said what have you done, which i was shocked at the accusation and it was exceedingly aggressive towards me. When asking the receptionist to phone a plumber, the reply was "don't tell me what to do".

The most magical city in Belgium!
Pros:

Lovely 1 night stay in Bruges! The hotel was nice, clean and safe. Location was within walking distance to many of the local sites and was very convenient to get to from the train station.

Cons:

Our room was on the top floor and the shower/tub was interesting due to the angles of the ceilings, but we made it work!
