Pros:

Struttura in generale

Cons:

Prenotato con il booking con il prezzo intorno a 135€ Al albero ci hanno chiesto di pagare al in circa 175€ cercando di dare spiegazioni in inglese (che io non parlo ma riesco capire parole semplici), credo di aver capito che booking non garantisce prezzo ed era un prezzo indicativo. Ma non potendo ad entrare nelle spiegazioni avendo la fretta, la stanza è stata pagata come richiesto dalla addetta al accoglienza del albergo.
Spiacevole sorpresa 🫪

Lovey stay in perfect location.
Pros:

Location, exterior. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Sink wasn’t draining… took 5 min to empty with risk of overflow. Shower without door or curtain flooded bathroom. Room very small. Need to squeeze past bed to get to window.

Pros:

Location of the hotel is perfect, directly in the city but you can't hear any noise from outside.

Cons:

The beds were rather soft (of course it's personal preference), and if you get a room with bubble bath, be ready that cca 30 min after you empty it, it will blow dry for a few seconds (we got scared at first due to the loud sound)

Fijn hotel met vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel
Pros:

Schone kamer, heerlijke douche en fijne bedden. Matras is misschien aan zachte kant maar wij hebben er heerlijk op geslapen. Douche heeft fijne harde straal. Voor onze fietsen was er een aparte afgesloten ruimte. Geweldig!
