Pros:

Frokosten var helt super, førsteklasses. Deilig seng som sikret en god natt søvn - alt i kombinasjon med veldig hyggelig vertskap. Kan virkelig anbefale å bo her.

Originalt hotell med god frokost.
Pros:

Stilig hotell der man har beholdt mye av det originale. Veldig god frokost.

Cons:

Hadde dessverre rom rett ut mot bilveien som var kun få meter i fra, så det ble en del støy. Kunne godt ha satt på varme på badet på forhånd, det var nokså kaldt (3 grader ute om morgenen).

Anbefaler å besøke dette unike hotellet.
Pros:

Positive ansatte, god atmosfære, følelsen av å være velkommen. Greit å prøve noe annet enn kjedehotell.

Cons:

Ikke noe å utsette.

Pros:

De aankleding, het comfortabele bed en meubilair.

Cons:

Ondanks dat het een net nieuw gebouw was, wat goed afgewerkt en schoon was, hing er een zeer onaangename geur. De vuilcontainers stonden onder onze ramen, we denken dat het hiervan kwam. Deze geur was moeilijk uit de kamer te krijgen, ook met de ramen open.
