Pros:

Room was well furnished, especially the plumbing.

Cons:

The room was to tiny, especially the bathroom. The shower wouldn't stop falling off. I told the desk and they supposed to fix it, but it was the same the next day.

Very nice!
Pros:

Very friendly staff, nice bar and very nice breakfast. Only thing my girlfriend was missing (as a real Dutch girl) was cheese at breakfast 😃

Cons:

If you have a room at the street side there is much noise from people in the street who are at music bars and a discotheque in the street. We were in the hotel in the weekend, maybe on other days it will be more quiet.

Comfortable, cozy, and well equipped
Pros:

The rooms were well equipped with most every amenity, including safe, ironing board, TV. We did not eat there but the pub was warm and cozy.

Cons:

It was okay for just me, but had there been two of us the room would have been tight.
