Pros:

The room that we stayed in was comfortable. Nice beds. Good location.

Cons:

The room needs some sort of black out curtains fairly drastically. When we stayed the sun was up at about 5.30am and so were we. It was also a very pokey room. Clever design with the bunk beds and they were comfortable. But there was literally no room to move other than the beds.

Interesting!
Pros:

Close to center, the design is quite innovative, beds were comfortable.. But it’s like the room was left unfinished? There was no wardrobe to hang or store our clothes, not a single chair and no table.

Cons:

I have to say, for all that empty space in the room’s entrance (picture attached) it would’ve been nice to have a minimum of furniture to make the room more functional..
Plus the mirror was placed so low for a normal height person (1.72cm) it was uncomfortable to use, let alone the fact that it was very small too. So I had to manipulate it every time to

Pros:

房間的床放置很適合有小孩的家庭,不用膽小小孩滾下床。
床很好睡,空間寬敞,整體都很乾淨。

Cons:

這間民宿沒有電梯,如果有大件行李的旅客需要考慮一下,最高也到三樓,但如果一直上上下下,其實蠻累的。
距離車站不太近,有要趕車的話需要提早出門,附近也沒有甚麼商店。

Mooi nieuw gebouw met veel houtwerk
Mooie locatie met comfortabele gemeenschappelijke ruimte

Cons:

Veel te duur. 300 euro per nacht.

Om schone handdoeken moesten we vragen

Style over function. Great location
Pros:

Great location and funky style

Cons:

Style over function. Tables to put anything, only place to charge devices was on the ground. Mirror is very low. Kids hit their head on the top bunk a bit.

Very basic and central place to stay
Pros:

The hotel is located next to the old city.
Nice full kitchen.

Cons:

The room was very small. It is shown that the place is quite new but very low maintenance. The walls have scratches on them.

If you put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No windows in rooms or any ability to see outside. Claustrophobic.
Glass tops on small coffee tables not secured and dangerous for kids
No towel hooks.
No bench or shelf in room.
No table in rooms.
No fridge in rooms.
Photos make rooms look bigger than what they are.
Rooms are very budget.
Pots and pans in the communal kitchen have non stick coating peeling off.
Communal kitchen very small and only room for one person cooking at a time.
This is very budget accommodation. It is not minimalist nor is it designed well. There is no function to the design and all the timber is for looks as per the photos.
The communal lounge area is big, cold, echoey and empty. Nothing to do.
No atmosphere or community. I think this place is a dream that has failed and now struggling to survive.

Pros:

ロケーションが良く、インテリアもおしゃれです。
遅い時間でしたが、徒歩で、居酒屋やラーメン屋、クレープ屋さんで食べられました。朝市もすぐ近くです。

Cons:

ロフトの上のベッドの上に鉄筋コンクリの梁が、天井より、30センチぐらい張り出して通っていて、気を付けてはいますが、同行者が、2回額を強打しました。2回目は、ぶつけた直後に鼻血が出たので、心配しました。
白いリネンを汚さなくてホッとしました。
共用スペースは、他のグループが先に使用中だったら、遠慮してしまいます。
占有スペースにも、ベッド以外に、ソファが欲しいところです。
共用キッチンには、道具が揃っていますが、遅い時間には、近くに
コンビニやドラッグストアも開いてないので、事前に早めに買い出しをおすすめします。
