Best Hotel Ever (to quote my fussy 7yo)
Pros:

Location was excellent, close to the Centraal Train station, trams, canals and amenities. Quiet location, off main streets.
Good selection of continental breakfast items, which was included in price. Drinking water available on tap at reception.

Cons:

Some may complain that some items were not available in room (for example, toothbrush, toothpaste, iron, ironing board) but the guest book did indicate that these were available from reception.

Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt gar nicht!
Pros:

Lage

Cons:

Für den hohen Preis ( mehr als 250 Euro als Alleinreisende pro Nacht!) wirklich schlecht! Beim Frühstück labbriges Brot, abgepackte Marmelade, Butter, Joghurt etc.- so viel Müll, der hier jeden Morgen entsteht). In den Zimmern nur Pappbecher. Das Wasser in der Dusche wechselt ständig zwischen heiß und kühl. Die Betten sind auf Rollen ( wie im Krankenhaus). In die Ecken sollte man im Badezimmer besser nicht schauen! Das Mobiliar ist alt und dunkel, so auch der Raum insgesamt. Personal beim Frühstück war freundlich, aber nicht an der Rezeption. Es wird nicht gegrüßt wenn man das Hotel betritt und beim Check out wird nicht gefragt ob alles in Ordnung war. Es müsste einiges verbessert werden um den Preis zu rechtfertigen!

Mon avis personnel..
Pros:

La chambre, la literie très confortable.

Cons:

La douche d'angle, très petite, pour une personne un peu hors limite en poids, il y aura un petit problème à pouvoir bouger dans cette cabine.. !!

La chambre pas trop isolée , on entend la télé du voisin de la chambre d'a côté.
.
Au petit déjeuner , manque de pain frais , sinon rien à redire !
