Nice modern hotel in a nice location
Pros:

Everything was great. Beds were comfortable. Location was really perfect.

Cons:

The check out is until 10 and even for extention of half an hour additional payment is necessary which I didn't like.
Also, the sauna was broken.

Toch wel teleurstellend.
Pros:

Na mijn cursus die tot 21.15u duurde was het makkelijk naar de kamer gaan. Juist nu het zo koud was en ik niet hoefde te krabben van de auto ruiten.

Cons:

De enige dag dat ik eindelijk een keer op Papendal verbleef, was de sauna en Turks bad gesloten. In omliggende hotels is er ook een zwembad aanwezig. Maar papendal had niet eens een zwembad. Valt me weer erg tegen voor een sport accommodatie.
