Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed. Several guests mention clean rooms, but also notable issues: very dusty room (allergy concern), some rooms described as 'slordig' and dated with rust and broken fixtures.
Service
9.3
Strong positive mentions: multiple reports of very friendly and helpful staff, complaints taken seriously and handled (including full refund for a night), and generally 'super vriendelijke service'.
Location
9.2
Consistently praised: central, great location near the vismarkt and Efteling, excellent views and convenient for sightseeing; only minor parking/search difficulty noted.
Room Quality
6.7
Mixed to below average: several comments about very small rooms (one cited 8 m2), steep stairs with luggage, low water pressure, broken lamps and other maintenance problems; some guests praised beds and showers.
Amenities
7.2
Average: basic and sometimes dated amenities (garage for bikes not immediately adjacent, breakfast served off-site for some, key pickup via locker), functional but limited.
Value for Money
7
Slightly below target: one guest explicitly called the room 'expensive' for its size; others felt service and breakfast balanced cost, but mixed room quality reduces perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Generally positive: many guests praise the breakfast and restaurant (some liked breakfast concept), though a few note breakfast served in an external bakery or that the restaurant was uncomfortably warm.
Overall Experience
8.5
Overall positive stay for short trips: charming location, friendly staff and good food make for a pleasant experience despite small rooms and some maintenance/cleanliness issues.

Aardig personeel. Onze klacht werd serieus genomen en goed afgehandeld worden
Pros:

Het personeel was erg behulpzaam. De verwarming deed het niet. S avonds is nog iemand langsgekomen om het op te starten.
Maar helaas 1 radiator vergeten: het was s nachts daardoor erg warm. Lastig slapen. De volgende ochtend dit besproken. Behalve excuses kregen we de volledige overnachting terug.
Lekker ontbijt prima ligging

Teures winziges Zimmer in bezauberndem Örtchen
Pros:

Lage ganz zentral und trotzdem ruhig in bezauberndem Örtchen Heusgen

Cons:

Frühstück leider nicht im Hotel sondern außerhalb in einer Bäckerei, ausreichend ,aber nicht wahnsinnig ansprechend. Zimmer mit 8 m2 extrem klein und über nur über steile Treppen zu erreichen (Gepäck!) Parkplatzsuche schwierig

Top hotel
Pros:

Zeer mooi hotel, super vriendelijke service. Zeer leuk concept om bij het ontbijt zelf uw eitje te bereiden. Alles goed opgevat, geen verkwisting. Lekker gegeten in het restaurant. Super locatie....
