Mooi hotel in binnenstad met vriendelijk personeel
Pros:

Mooi, schoon hotel met prachtige badkamer en vriendelijk personeel. Middenin de binnenstad en met goede faciliteiten en fijn, rustig terras.

Cons:

Sommige kamers liggen aan de uitgaansstraten, wat 's avonds en 's nachts voor overlast kan zorgen, maar hier houd je rekening mee als je naar de Groningse binnenstad gaat. Uiteindelijk best prijzig voor wat je krijgt, maar in vergelijking met andere hotels in Groningen, doe je een goede zaak.

Chambre confortable mais située au-dessus d’un bar, donc très difficile de dormir. Le petit-déjeuner était excellent.
