Highly recommend.
Pros:

The room was comfy, neat and tidy. Exactly what we needed for an overnight stay. The restaurant downstairs was so good. The food was amazing. The front desk agents, the restaurant staff and housekeeping were all lovely.

Cons:

My only complaint was that shower in my room leaked. So my bathroom was soaked but it was a small price to pay.

Nice clean and tidy accom.
Pros:

It was extremely noisy in the hallway outside our rooms. The cleaning staff were loud. Then some girls who were staying across the hallway were very loud all night long. Right up to 1.30 in the morning. Banging their doors going backward and forwards. I had to yell at them to tell them to shut up and stop banging the doors. Very annoying!

Cons:

As above

Top locatie, prima bedden, als je eisen niet al te hoog zijn een net hotel.
Pros:

Badkamer was erg klein, regendouche met veel te weinig water. Wel schoon en netjes. Weinig ruimte.

Cons:

TV werkte niet, kamers aan straatkant zijn erg lawaaiig. Vriendelijk personeel, goede basis, niks bijzonders.
