Cons:

Chambre trop exiguë. Hôtel un peu loin du centre-ville et surtout parking abusivement cher. Petit déjeuner cher également comparativement à d'autres hôtels. Nous ne réserverons plus dans cette chaîne d'hôtel.

Pros:

Οι κοινόχρηστοι χώροι, το ευγενικό προσωπικό.

Cons:

Δεν μου άρεσε το μικρό δωμάτιο και η έλλειψη ντουλάπας και χώρων. Μικρός καθρέφτης στο μπάνιο. Το ντους γέμιζε αμέσως με νερό και χυνόταν έξω. Ένιωσα δυσφορία με τα παράθυρα που δεν άνοιγαν. Το πρωινό αρκετές φορές ήταν ελλειπες αν πήγαινες μετά τις 9:20.

Goede locatie, maar kamer en parkeren vallen tegen
Pros:

Het hotel zat op een goede locatie. Het station was vlakbij, op ongeveer 5 minuten lopen. Het gezellige centrum met leuke terrasjes en bezienswaardigheden lag op zo’n 20 minuten loopafstand. Een fijne wandeling, vooral bij mooi weer.”

Cons:

Er waren helaas ook een paar dingen die tegenvielen. Ten eerste de kamer waar we in verbleven. Deze was erg klein en miste faciliteiten zoals een waterkoker. Het bed was aan de kleine kant en de kussens lagen niet prettig. Voor een verblijf van drie dagen vonden wij de tweepersoonskamer eigenlijk te krap, waardoor we niet echt goed hebben geslapen.
Daarnaast viel het parkeren tegen. Je kunt voor €22 per nacht in de parkeergarage van het hotel staan, maar aan de overkant kun je voor €5 drie dagen parkeren. Het hotel informeert hier niet over en kon ons ook geen duidelijkheid geven over de LEZ-regeling. Er staat gewoon een parkeerautomaat langs de weg en op feestdagen is het parkeren zelfs gratis.”

Clean, comfortable, affordable and with an excellent breakfast.
Pros:

The location was good, about 600 m from the Dampoort railway station and about 15 minutes walk from the town centre. The room was clean, comfortable and well-equipped if a bit on the small side. The breakfast was excellent. There is a convenient luggage room where we were able to leave our bags after check-out, and there are bikes available for guests (although we didn't use them).

Cons:

Everything was good.

Pros:

1. Located close to Damport station.
2. the bed was very good so I slept comfortably all nights I stayed there.
3. Lovely lounge area. Great for work and the microwave is a well needed touch.
4. The water pressure was great too.
5. Storage provided for suitcases.

Cons:

1. There was no kettle in the room so couldnt make tea or coffee.
2. The TV had no remote so that I am not sure why it was even there to begin with.
