The hotel was ideal for location but was quite small
Pros:

The location was ideal to explore the sites I was interested in. There was a lift which made it easy for bags. The staff were very helpful. The breakfast which is in the cafe next door was delicious.

Cons:

The room was a tight fit even for one person although it had what was needed.

Awesome stay - great location, close to many restaurants, cafes, shops and sites to explore.
Pros:

We stayed in a Hotel Kathedral apartment during our visit. It was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with very comfortable beds. The hotel is across the street but made it easy to access services, and the apartment offered views of the Grote Market and Cathedral.

Cons:

There was only one bathroom, but we made it worked for five people.

Top!
Pros:

Ligging van hotel en uitzicht vanuit de kamer. Koelkastje met
Water werd bij gevuld. Personeel was vriendelijk en meedenkend. Bagage kon achter staan bij de dag van uitchecken.

Cons:

Geluid van buiten in de ochtend en avond, veegwagens maar dat is buiten de invloed van het hotel, lagen we oordopjes dus dat was heel fijn.

Unique hotel in fantastic central location
Pros:

The room was nice, the decor is quite unusual but it added a charm. They left nice chocolates and toiletries. We didn't pay extra for breakfast as it was too expensive, we went up the road for pastries and coffee and had them in our room with a bath! The bath is actually too small to share :) The location is excellent bang in the centre of town.

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind
