Pros:

We had such a lovely stay here! The setting was elegant and the hosts were so gracious and welcoming. It was close to walk to the market square and all of the places we wanted to see. Our room was on the top floor, so lots of stairs, which we were aware of from the description when booking. The breakfast was delicious and so beautifully displayed- it really started each day off perfectly, and exceeded our expectations.

Prima
Pros:

Het ontbijt was goed. Het centrum van Brugge is op loopafstand. De parkeerplaats aan de overkant van de weg was erg fijn.

Cons:

De douchekop was erg verkalkt waardoor er een matige straal uitkwam, verder viel het water hard op het doucheputje wat voor veel lawaai zorgde.

Surpreendente desde o início,.
Pros:

Localização ótima, café da manhã excelente, mas o mais agradável foi a decoração personalíssima. Diferente dos hotéis pasteurizado, mas com muita personalidade.

Cons:

Não ter um estacionamento próprio, mas ter um público 5 minutos caminhando ajuda bastante.
