Pros:

Het bed was comfortabel.

Cons:

Er was veel achterstallig onderhoud, zo was de kledinghaak/kapstok uit de muur en lag in de kast.
Op meerdere plaatsen waren gaten geplamuurd maar niet opnieuw geschilderd en meer van dat soort dingen.
Het ontbijt was minimaal er was niet veel keuze in beleg en wat er was lagen er maar 6 of 7 plakjes wel zuinig voor een lopend buffet.

Teleurstellend
Pros:

Tja, erg goedkoop dus wist dat er niet al te veel van kon verwachten. Had achteraf liever eur 100,— meer uitgegeven.

chambre pour une nuit si pas d'autre solution!
Pros:

Ce n'est pas cher mais je n'aurai pas payé plus! Il y a du thé (pas de café en sachet!) et une bouilloire. Le soir, c'est calme pour un quartier de gare.

Cons:

Une forte odeur de tabac imprègne la chambre. Draps tachés de sang, une chaîne à la TV (il faut un code pour voir les autres; sinon, ce sont des stations de radio), pas de parking (venir après 19h sinon, c'est tarif zone rouge).

Cons:

We hadden via booking geboekt, toen we aankwamen probeerde de man van de receptie ons een andere kamer voor meer geld te geven. Uiteindelijk kregen we de kamer toch voor het via booking afgesproken bedrag.
De kamer was niet schoon, vol met muggen, en super gehorig.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

From the start you don't have a parking place how they said in the reservation and to park on the street you need to pay 5€/h. The room is very old and smelly. In the reception area was lots of cigarettes smoke and you don't have where to stay. The breakfast was really bad just few things thrown on a plate.
