Sfeervol hotel op centrale locatie
Pros:

Grote ruime kamer met veel licht. Top ontbijt met veel keuze en verse broodjes en jus. Centrale ligging met zeer vriendelijke ontvangst. Bijzondere locatie, oud schoolgebouw.

Cons:

De bedden hebben een wat zachte matras, maar kwestie van smaak..

Freundlich, angenehm, sauber, alles in Reichweite
Pros:

Frühstück war gut, Lage sehr zentral und ruhig am Rande der Altstadt und alles gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Das Doppelbett-Zimmer war groß. Der Parkplatz vor der Tür.

Cons:

Die Fenster lassen sich nicht öffnen. Zudem fehlt unbedingt ein Kühlschrank. Da der Kleiderschrank über keine Fächer für die Kleiderablage verfügte, muß man aus dem Koffer leben, für den auch keine Ablage vorgesehen ist. Man konnte lediglich etwas in den Schrank reinhängen.

Handig als stadshotel als je er alleen komt om te slapen.
Pros:

Centraal gelegen en toch heel rustig. Goed ontbijt en lekkere koffie.

Cons:

Kamers zijn erg basaal ingericht wat niet erg hoeft te zijn maar als je het flesje met douchegel niet eens neer kunt zetten als je onder de douche staat … En hoewel voldoende ruimte voor een goede stoel staan er twee ongemakkelijke stoeltjes. Het hotel biedt verder niets.

Friendly, accommodating Hotel in a super location.
Pros:

From start to finish it was excellent. I arrrived early and the lady facilitated an early check in. I explained that I had to work all day in Alkmaar and would not return to the hotel till very late, she went out of her way to walk me through how I would access the hotel after normal closing hours. Overall experience was excellent. Comfy bed and spotless room.

Cons:

It would have been better if there had been a small fridge in the room. But this would not stop me from staying here again.
