Heel bijzonder hotel!
Pros:

Het is absoluut een super bijzonder gebouw om in te mogen overnachten en ik hoop echt dat we hier nog eens terug komen voor nog een nachtje.
De man achter de balie was ontzettend vriendelijk bij de ontvangst en ook toen we extra handdoeken wilden was niks te gek.
Ontbijten gaat in shifts maar dat is helemaal prima, er was van alles nog zat in het laatste tijdslot, heerlijk ontbeten.

Cons:

Wat ik echt vond tegenvallen was het bed. Het lag prima maar wij waren samen een romantisch weekendje weg. We wilden graag een mooie kamer want ivm onze kindjes thuis kunnen wij niet vaak samen weg. Ik had gezien bij het boeken dat de junior suite twee eenpersoonsbedden had en toch was het een vette domper om 's nachts onder dat eenpersoonsdekbedje in mijn eentje te moeten liggen in plaats van lekker tegen mijn man aan te kunnen kruipen onder een groot tweepersoonsdekbed zonder gleuf in het matras. Dit is echt iets wat ik aan zou passen voor die kamer, dan zou die wat mij betreft echt perfect zijn.
De laadpaal was zo ingewikkeld om aan te koppelen dat we onze auto maar niet hebben aangesloten. Daar zou wel even naar gekeken mogen worden.

Bett dreckig, gestopfte Löcher im Laken und Tür ließ sich nicht schließen
Pros:

Netter Concierge

Cons:

Bettlaken waren fleckig und die Tür ließ sich nicht abschließen. Da es das letzte Zimmer war und der Concierge die Tür nicht reparieren konnte, hatte er uns ein anderes Hotel besorgt. Dies war viel komfortabler und das Frühstück war hervorragend.

Pros:

Service, personeel vriendelijkheid, gratis koffie thee en zelfs chocolsdemelk en fruit door de dag heen

Cons:

Mooie ruime badkamer. Maar zit geen deur voor de douche en badkamer, en waterstraal op z'n heetst nog niet erg warm en zeker niet krachtig. Door grote open ruimte vervliegt alle douche warmte.
