Goed verblijf, gezellig
Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel, professioneel , goede locatie

Cons:

Niet echt iets, misschien wat gedateerd, maar dat heeft juist ook wel charme ,
Het was wel tamelijk gehorig trouwens.

Bezauberndes originales Ambiente trifft sehr gute Lage und guten Service
Pros:

Das Frühstück war wunderbar. Einfach aber stets mit frischem Gemüse und Obst. Die Backwaren waren frisch lecker und reichhaltig. Das Frühstücksei war immer perfekt weich und frisch.
Die Lage war zentral und doch ruhig in mitten der Stadt und in Friesland. Die Umgebung war malerisch und lud zu Spaziergängen ein.

Cons:

Das Bad war sauber und ordentlich, könnte jedoch eine Modernisierung vertragen.

Prima
Pros:

De vriendelijkheid en meedenkendheid van het personeel, en het heerlijke eten, zowel diner als ontbijt

Cons:

De verouderde bad en slaapkamer, was allemaal net iets te klein, en de bedden te zacht.
Ook jammer was dat de verf overal af bladderde en dat daar niet wat aan gedaan was
