Overall a good experience
Pros:

Room was spacious and clean, beds were comfortable, and location was excellent

Cons:

The people at the reception were rather stern and when I had an issue with the room the woman responded in an unpleasantly brusque manner. However, they did their best to resolve the problem and as time went by things got better.

Mooie locatie, goede bedden maar de wanden en vloerbedekking zeer matig
Pros:

Locatie: top
Bedden: prima
Ruime kamer (3e verdieping)

Cons:

Gaten in de muren, vloer niet schoon, gordijnen matig, douchegordijn kapot.
Vanaf de derde verdieping konden we alleen via een smalle trap naar beneden, Geen fijn gevoel bij eventuele brand.
