Hopefully they will improve their service and I can conevv bc stay next time
Cons:

The room we got is located on the top floor and room is super hot and noisy in the night from the street traffic. There is a little tiny fan on the chest but looks very dirty and doesn’t work for the size of room. Also the internet doesn’t work/ or very weak

Voor één nachtelijk verblijf op onze fietsreis was dit een prima locatie.
Pros:

Ruime kamer en badkamer. Behulpzame gastvrouw die ons restaurant aanprees waar we heerlijk hebben gegeten.
Lekker 'British breakfast'.
