Good value. Unfortunately one of the main tram lines was being upgraded so travel around the city was limited
Pros:

The staff were very welcoming

Cons:

We spent 2 nights in the hotel. Night 1 was perfect. Night2 slightly less so since our room overlooked a busy and noisy street

A perfect location to stay when visiting Rotterdam
Pros:

The staff was super friendly and supportive. They have an amazing breakfast and the room that I was in albeit small, I grew to love how cozy it was and how I had everything I needed within reach.

Another note, that you had everything around the hotel from different international restaurants to fast food chains, markets and all your site seeing locations nearby.

Cons:

The only thing that bothered me, was the lack of a tooth paste as part of the bathroom essentials. Aside from that everything was very good.

Hotel Van Walsum one night stay
Pros:

Great location and within walking distance of the many attractions,we walked to euromast on a very hot day and it was a nice walk ,but also near to transport (trams) if needed ,staff are exceptional and the rooms are spotless ,a place where I felt relaxed and at home ,breakfast was great with lots of choice,it was also a quiet area and we had a great night's sleep ,a great atmosphere in the bar area ,our room had air conditioning ,a large bathroom with a large bath and shower ,the room was larger than most hotel rooms with some nice furniture and a large TV ,also had free internet , but we didn't use it .a lift to upper floors and a tourist information leaflet library ,also tea and coffee in room with plenty of choice of flavours .
