Voor ons doel was dit een prima accomodatie. Komen zeker terug
Pros:

Grote kamer met drie bedden. Een goed werkende koelkast en koffie en thee faciliteiten. Goed bed. Goed werkende verwarming en warm water. Bij de verder wat rommelige ( soms wat verwaarloosde )uitstraling waren dit verrassende prettige ervaringen.

Cons:

Ontbijt was voor € 13.50 wat eenvoudig. Maar de eieren waren goed warm en de broodrooster werkte goed.

Nice place to explore the city on budget
Pros:

The position is super, few steps away from the central station and in the heart of the city centre. The room is functional, with all the necessary equipment. The bathroom was very clean.

Cons:

The facility is a bit old, with a vintage fashion. Sometimes the smell, of the carpet I guess, is not the most pleasant. Not so much common area where to stay beyond the room.

Super slecht hotel!
Pros:

Eigenlijk niets.. Misschien de centrale locatie

Cons:

Eigenlijk alles, alles is oud en slecht onderhouden. De kamers zijn vies en er ligt afval en sigarettenpeuken op het balkon

Pros:

De kamer was groot en schoon op een centrale positie in Leiden

Cons:

Het ontbijt; broodjes die niet gegeten worden, verschijnen de volgende dagen weer bij het ontbijt totdat ik een broodje heb ingeleverd bij de receptie. Het ontbijt was verder goed maar karig voor €13,50 per persoon

Good location. Exactly as advertised.
Pros:

Very central and close to the train station.

Cons:

The stairs. I had a checked bag and it took two of us to get it up the stairs. I emptied it and repacked at the bottom of the stairs when I checked out.

Prima hotel, prima kamer, op een uitstekende locatie.
Pros:

Ik had een (zeer ruime!) zolderkamer. Mooi, sfeervol onder het puntdak, met een uitzicht op een gracht.

Cons:

Ontbijt was basic. (Viel niet tegen hoor, want ik had ook niet heel veel meer verwacht)
