Service
8.5
Multiple mentions of warm, friendly and welcoming staff, helpful reception and convenient WhatsApp room service; occasional notes that terrace service could be better.
Location
9
Consistently praised: quiet setting just outside the centre, short walk to town, close to woods and good for cycling — a clear strong point.
Room Quality
8.5
Rooms described as spacious, nicely designed with very good beds and effective air conditioning; some minor drawbacks (ground-floor room without terrace, a non-opening window, occasional thin walls).
Amenities
7.5
Good amenities like air conditioning, bike rental/parking and fridge access were noted; gaps include no electric car charging, limited comfortable seating in some rooms/areas and parking not immediately adjacent.
Value for Money
7
Mixed comments: some guests found price/quality acceptable, others felt the nightly rate and breakfast were expensive for what was offered (example: €182/night; breakfast seen as overpriced).
Food and Beverage
6.5
Repeated complaints about breakfast quality and value (undercooked bread, limited fruit, cheap cheese substitute, overabundance of bacon, even spoiled fruit reported); several guests skipped or criticized the breakfast offering.
Overall Experience
8.5
Overall positive guest sentiment: many strong recommendations, return intentions and 'superverblijf' remarks, tempered by recurring issues with breakfast, parking and a few room-specific limitations.

Pros:

Really nice hotel. Location is a 10 minutes walk away from the town centre but that makes a quiet night sleep! Good starting point for cycling with Shimano experience centre and some bicycle rentals closeby.

Cons:

The parking is in a public car park around the corner but you can drop off luggage etc. A reduced charge for guests would be nice.

Gut mit Luft nach oben.
Pros:

Die Betten waren wirklich sehr bequem, auch die Kopfkissen waren wirklich klasse. Die Dame an der Rezeption war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Sehr gutes Frühstück. Richtiger Föhn im Bad. Schöne Zimmer in guter Größe.

Cons:

Das WC im Zimmer ist separat, was ja erst mal positiv ist. Jedoch ohne Möglichkeit die Hände zu waschen, obwohl Platz für ein Miniwaschbecken vorhanden ist. Man muss dann doch wieder um die Ecke ins Bad. Wenn es denn frei ist. Das hat uns persönlich gestört. Schöne barrierefreie Dusche, aber offen und trotz Vorsicht ist das restliche Bad voller Wasserspritzer. Wir probierten in der Bar die alkoholfreien Cocktails. Nach langer Wartezeit erhielten wir 2 Mojitos, die fast nur aus crushed Eis bestanden und 2 Martinis mit Passionsfrucht, die dermaßen süß waren, dass sie nur mit dem Eis von den Mojitos genießbar waren. Dafür 39 Euro - viel zu teuer.

Depresieve architect
Pros:

De ligging van het hotel 10 min lopen naar het centrum.
De ruime kamer met een aparte wc ruimte.
Het ontbijt was goed.

Cons:

Alles was in donkere kleuren in de kamer en in het hele hotel maar ook in het restaurant wat een ongezellige sfeer met zich mee bracht en een weerslag heeft op het personeel.
Onze kamer was aan de voorkant waar autos s'ochtens vroeg met draaiende motor onder je geopende raam stil stonden een parkeerverbod langs de gevel zou berer zijn.
