Pros:

A really nice place; the room, the bathroom, and the nice little outside area are very cozy. I forgot my EarPods when I left, and they called me and also sent them to Norway for me; I have never experienced that before, as other hotels usually do not do that. we were 4 people using 2 rooms,

Disappointing
Pros:

Nice neighbourhood and easy to walk into the city centre from there. The cafe which fronts the hotel was very busy and what I ate and drank for breakfast was excellent.

Cons:

Cafe staff were not hotel staff. Really unwelcoming as a hotel guest, no offer to show me to my room, explain the locking system and key fob. Almost scorned me for not reading my online instructions of how to enter the hotel and access my room (like I get hundreds of emails per day!). The rooms are all facing a scruffy inner courtyard with very little privacy. The room was also very spartan/industrial. No mention that the whole street was dug up for some works - a very messy first impression and the sandy dirt from the trees is carried through into the cafe.

Heel tof dat jullie voor de kinderen aparte bedjes hebben klaargezet. Heel lief!

Tolle Unterkunft wir haben es genossen.
Pros:

Es ist ein kleines familiäres Hotel - Hoteleingang durch eine Bäckerei, gemütlicher Innenhof nur für Hotelgäste. Sehr freundliches Personal. Das Sauerteigbrot und die Backwaren sowie der Kaffee am morgen war ein Highlight. Sehr grosse Zimmer und das Badezimmer mit der tollen Dusche sowie Whirlpool einfach Klasse.

Cons:

Das es kein grosses Fenster hat, wo man über Nacht offen hätte lassen können.

This was a wonderfully relaxing visit with great food and wellness.
Pros:

We loved the location and the courtyard outside our room. We also loved being connected to a fabulous bakery and having coffee or a treat every morning. Very convenient to walk everywhere from there and close to the train station.

Heerlijk en van genoten. Zou zo weer terug gaan.
Pros:

Super leuke kamers en entree.
Leuk gedaan en van alle gemakken voorzien.
Personeel ongelofelijk vriendelijk.
Leuk idee om ook te ontbijten

Cons:

Voor ons was het openen en sluiten van de deur een klus. Maar voor de wat jongeren onder ons, vast geen probleem.
