prima
Pros:

locatie, prima ontbijt

Cons:

late nacht check in, na tomorrowland. de kamer die we kregen was al bezet, dus stapte on 4 uur snachts bij wildvreemden de kamer in. vervelend voor met name die andere gasten, en wij moesten weer naar de receptie om een andere kamer te krijgen, vervelend als je al zo moe bent

Pros:

The location will be great when the building work is finished..

Cons:

There was a lot of confusion at check in. We arrived early and room wasn't ready so we waited untill 3pm and the room still wasn't ready so were given another room. We arrived at the room to find it also wasn't ready. We returned to reception to be told the room was now ready. We went back to the room to find the key didn't work. So we returned to reception and they sent to another room.

Er waren goede momenten en een paar minder goede momenten. Mechelen is een mooie stad.
Pros:

Het is fijn dat je je bagage al eerder kan laten wegzetten in de bagageopslag. Geen probleem om glutenvrij en of lactosevrij te ontbijten. De bediening bij het lekkere avondeten en de ontvangst bij het ontbijt waren heel goed. Het ontbijt is ook uitgebreid en goed.

Cons:

Iets drinken na het eten kan enkel op het zomerterras. De tweede nacht veel lawaai, ook te horen met raam dicht. Het is maar wat je wilt en wat je verwacht. Is voor iedereen anders natuurlijk.
