Pros:

The location was perfect

Cons:

The only issue was no working A/C. We were told about this as we checked in so no issues there. And upon request we were given a 2nd fan for the room.

Great stay, great city. Would go back but would take earplugs next time.
Pros:

Basement apartment was lovely and clean and easily accessed. Beds were comfy and all the appliances we needed were there.

Cons:

Only complaint is that there’s not much sound proofing between the apartment above and we were kept awake by people walking and moving furniture well into the night and early hours of the morning.

Geweldige ligging, rustig met toch veel leven in de straat!
Pros:

De ligging is PERFECT, in de straat met veel restaurantjes en pubs, maar toch rustig !
Het personeel super vriendelijk.
Kamers netjes en de badkamer ruim.
Het ontbijt is uitgebreid en lekker, met dagelijks verschillende dingen.

Cons:

Parking is er niet, op een 3min wandelen.
Cocktail-bar vonden wij speciaal, maar toch ook aan de prijzige kant.
Het eten in het restaurant is lekker, maar het moest vooruit gaan zodat onze tafel opnieuw vrij kwam voor de volgende.

Teleurstellend en een slechte prijs/kwaliteitverhouding
Pros:

De ligging is geweldig. Leuke straat met veel eet- en drinkgelegenheid. Het appartement is goed uitgerust en redelijk ruim. Het personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam, maar niet bij machte om echte oplossingen te bieden (zie hieronder)

Cons:

Het appartement was veel te warm waardoor we de hele dag en nacht de ramen open moesten houden voor nog enige verkoeling. Daardoor was er, tot diep in de nacht, veel overlast van personeel van het restaurant op de binnenplaats.

Het lijkt te gaan om een storing/defect van de installaties. Het personeel biedt ventilatoren aan en lijkt op de hoogte van het probleem maar er lijkt opdracht te zijn gegeven om te doen alsof er niets aan de hand is. Dit voelt niet goed.

Zolang dit probleem niet verholpen is, is de vrij forse prijs die gerekend wordt totaal uit verhouding.

Bra
Pros:

Huhållsapparater

Cons:

Luften i lägenheten var helt stilla, inga fläktar (kanske kan hämtas i receptionen jag frågade aldrig). Även med alla fönster öppna så vädras ingenting, det blir väldigt varmt och kvavt

Pros:

Location is great, especially the onsite cocktail bar Cask, which is world class

Cons:

Our room was unreasonably warm. No A/C, but also, zero air flow, even with the windows open. The hallways were somehow cooler than the room. And leaving the windows open allows for sounds (and especially light) from the courtyard bar to flow into the room. I would never stay here in the summer again, far overpriced for a place that was uncomfortable to sleep
