Overnachting
Pros:

Locatie, netheid, bedden.

Cons:

De kamer was ruim maar erg sober ingericht en daardoor ietwat ongezellig. Geen koffie-en thee op de kamer, die moest je beneden gaan halen. De ruimte was niet goed warm te krijgen, ook de grote badkamer was wat kaal en nogal koud voor deze tijd van het jaar, ondanks de vol opengedraaide verwarming. Verder wel netjes en schoon.

I cannot imagine there being any better place to stay in Bolsward, or surrounding area.
Pros:

The location is fantastic, in the centre of Bolsward. The rooms are modern, spacious and comfortable. Although it was freezing outside, inside it was very pleasant.
There were free coffee and tea facilities, and there was a fridge.

Cons:

The bathroom with toilet did not have a wash basin. The wash basin was in the bedroom.
