Not very good
Pros:

The location was great if you cruising.

Cons:

The heat was to difficult to work i had to help another guest
Get thier heat working because there is no one one at the hotel to ask for help and the wifi for the smart tv is too weak you couldn't see the guide and if you tried to use your Netflix or prime it would freeze then disconnect..

Not happy..

Weekend Getaway
Pros:

The location was perfect. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Nice size room with everything you need for a quick getaway from the big city.

Cons:

Room 5 is right across from the front door and you can hear everything and everyone coming in and out. We will choose a different room next time but other than that. Everything was superb!

A very nice place to stay!
Pros:

The location was perfect. Close to some very good eating places and close to the port. The room was nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable.
The communication with the owners about the reservation was always very informative and right when you needed it. It was very nice not to have to worry about what we needed to do next.
Everything went super smooth.

Cons:

It would be nice if there was a vending machine for snacks and sodas.
Both of our washcloths had holes.
We had two coffee cups but no coffee or coffee maker.

Pros:

I loved how charming the space was. Very clean and modern. The ac worked great and internet was super fast for streaming TV. We will be staying again. The washer and dryer were a nice surprise.

Cons:

My only gripe is there was no ice bucket in room or even a scoop for the ice bin. We had to use a coffee cup since it was the only thing we had. Plenty of ice for all guests though.

Pros:

Fijne kamer met een fatsoenlijke koelkast en ruime douche. Eigen parkeerplaats was ook erg fijn!

Cons:

Het is er erg gehorig. Om 6.30 in de ochtend vertrokken andere gasten, hierdoor werden wij ook erg vroeg wakker. Op de badkamer kon ik het hele gesprek van andere gasten meeluisteren.

Eigenaren wijzen de gasten er op om stil te doen via de informatiekaart op de kamer. Als andere gasten zich daar niet aanhouden, dan ben je er wel de dupe van.

Probably wouldn’t stay there again.
Pros:

We liked the price. It was clean. I liked the rainfall shower.

Cons:

The bathroom door had a loud squeak. Stowing luggage in the laundry room did not seem secure. The lack of staff.
