Categories

Cleanliness
1
Repeated praise for cleanliness: 'schoon', 'súper limpio', 'clean and modern' and well-maintained interiors across multiple reviews.
Service
1
Generally friendly and helpful hosts (early check-in, baggage hold) but some issues: apartment not ready at 16:00 for one party and in-person communication limited to Spanish/Basque for some guests.
Location
1
Central, convenient location near old town and market hall praised, but several guests note the street/area can be lively, politically charged or feel unsafe for some, reducing appeal for certain visitors.
Room Quality
1
Rooms often described as new, modern and comfortable, but some negative notes: one unit lacked the advertised cathedral view, a toilet seal caused a bad smell in one bathroom, and privacy was limited in some layouts (beds in living area).
Amenities
1
Apartments are well equipped overall, but guests mentioned small kitchens and missing items (e.g., insufficient coffee capsules), so amenities are slightly below perfect.
Value for Money
1
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Food and Beverage
1
Minor complaint about limited coffee capsules; no full F&B service discussed in reviews.
Overall Experience
1
Majority of reviews report a very positive stay ('Heerlijk', 'Genial', 'Top verblijf'), praising comfort, cleanliness and location despite the isolated issues noted above.

Nice place but location not safe for women.
Pros:

It was nice inside and nice that it was on the water.

Cons:

The neighborhood was scary. We got there in the afternoon and there were men drinking all over the street. We had to have our bags dropped off a bit away and the men kept yelling at us and this was before 5.
