Nice place, too bad that the pool was closed.
Pros:

Very clean and nice room, quiet place.

Cons:

The pool was closed, and that's a shame, because this is exactly why I chose this booking in the first place.

Goedkoop is duurkoop, vriendelijkheid kost niks
Pros:

Kamer was schoon

Cons:

Personeel front desk. Probeerde $20 te “verdienen” voor 45 minuten te vroeg inchecken. Ook erg onvriendelijk.
