Bed bugs all over the place.
Pros:

Nothing to like

Cons:

There where bed bugs, I had many nasty stains on my body and we found dead ones and alive ones. The room smells like bleach. The hotel administration knows that they have bad bugs, but still renting rooms and for very high rates.
We complained and asked for full refund, but they only gave us a half of it, that covered our stay in other hotel that we where forced to move in to after we found bugs in our room.
In order to give us a refund they made us cancel our stay as “non show”
Awful experience…

Pros:

Hôtel miteux avec des punaises de lits, et un accueil avec des remarques racistes. Inadmissible en 2026

L’accueil est un vieux monsieur raciste.

Bon rapport qualité-prix, personnels sympas et avenants, bonne situation MAIS hôtel vieillot et doit être rafraîchi
Pros:

Déjà un peu excentré mais possible de louer des vélos à l’hôtel (idéal pour se déplacer à Amsterdam) et aussi tram 4 proche de l’hôtel.
Personnels très sympathiques.

Cons:

Chambre un peu vétuste et un bon rafraîchissement serait nécessaire. Lits très étroits (70cm). Odeur pas agréable dans l’hôtel. Propreté pas optimale.
