Pros:

Die Unterkunft liegt ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß bis ins Centrum. In der Nähe gibt es noch einige gute Lokale und Bars.
Die Lage ist sehr ruhig, sodass man Nachts auch bei geöffnetem Fenster schlafen kann.
Das Bad mit Dusche sind sehr gut und ausreichend groß.
Also eine gute Adresse

Cons:

An der Unterkunft gibt es keine reservierte Parkmöglichkeit. Man muss in der Umgebung oder in einem der Parkhäuser ( ca. 400 bis 700 m Entfernung) einen Parkplatz aufsuchen.
Die Parkgebühren sind sehr hoch und betragen / Tag 30 € vor Ort und zwischen 25 und 35 €/Tag in den Parkhäusern.
Vor der Unterkunft / in der Straße gab es keinen Hinweis, dass man ein Parkticket benötigt und dann werden direkt 70 € Strafe + 30 € Parkgebühr / Tag fällig.
Hierauf ist zu achten, denn der Betrag ist heftig und man muss diese Kosten den Übernachtungskosten hinzurechnen, wenn man einen Vergleich zu Unterkünften mit Parkplatz macht.

Perfekt für einen Städte-Trip nach Leiden!
Pros:

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in Leiden. The Harbour Leiden liegt an einem der vielen Kanäle, man kann zu Fuß alles prima und zügig erreichen (z.B. Bahnhof 15 Min.).Die Unterkunft ist sehr sauber und bietet viel Platz, außerdem liegt sie ruhig. Die kleine Kitchenette (jeweils für zwei Zimmer zur Nutzung) ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Caroline hat uns bestens beraten und geholfen, wo nötig. Wir werden in jedem Fall wieder buchen, wenn wir einen Aufenthalt in Leiden planen!

Cons:

Nichts!

We komen graag nog eens hier naartoe
Pros:

Geweldige uiticht over de gracht op de Marekerk.
Comfortabel ruime kamer, met een hoog opengewerkt plafond onder de oude balken van het dak. Leuk decoratief houtkacheltje. Klein en praktisch keukentje voor twee kamers in de gang. Het was er relatief rustig, af en toe een paar feest vierende studenten op straat of in bootjes tot in de nacht. Maar dat was gezellig om naar te kijken en nauwelijks te horen met de ramen dicht. Je kon kiezen uit ramen openschuiven of airco. Alle twee goede opties. We zagen geen personeel, maar alles was netjes. We kregen schone handdoeken en de vuilniszakken werden eveneens geleegd. Vriendelijke, ongecompliceerde en duidelijke communicatie met de verhuurder.

Quiet comfortable friendly elegance
Pros:

Quiet comfortable friendly elegance. We loved our ‘family room’ with the shared kitchen area. Lots of coffee pods and just enough things to be able to make a simple meal. It was perfect. A bigger bathroom and a haunted lighted mirror (it would turn itself on) and a comfy bed.

Super close to multiple bus stops and a bike rental around the corner. Nice area to just sit and watch the boats across the street

Cons:

Nothing

Excellent stay for our trip to the Keukenhof Gardens and sightseeing Leiden
Pros:

Very clean, comfortable and convenient location right on the canal. About a fifteen minute easy walk from the central train station and just 10 minute walk to the central part of the town. Room and bathroom were large and the bed super comfortable. Great kitchen area just outside the room. We only used the fridge to store our water and the kettle to make coffee in the morning. The area in Leiden where the hotel is located is very nice plus super quiet at night. We stayed three nights and slept great. Our host Caroline was great with communication emails. She reached out several times to ask if we needed anything and to ensure we were having a great time. Both of us definitely recommend staying at Harbour Leiden. Thank you Caroline for being such a great host.
