Helaas vergane glorie, voor zo’n mooie centrale plek
Pros:

Goede ligging in de stad,
Prima ontbijt en goed restaurant aan het hotel.

Cons:

Vergane glorie!
Oude kamers voldoen niet aan prijs-kwaliteit verhouding!
Schimmel in voegen badkamer, vaste douchekop waardoor alles in de badkamer nat wordt, bloedheet in de slaapkamer, tv aansluiting hapert, geen thee/koffie, koelkast faciliteiten, wifi die steeds uitvalt.
Verder kleine vervallen oude kamer. Geeft niet maar dan moet de prijs daar ook naar zijn.

Great location, good bar, okay rooms but hell hot 🥵
Pros:

Great location and a lovely bar when open

Cons:

The room we were in was like an oven three nights of next to no sleep could have ruined our weekend. When we complained we were informed that it was the guests fault for turning down the air conditioning too low 🤪

Hele goede locatie, prima prijs en aardige medewerkers.
Pros:

Locatie is top. We hadden hier geboekt i.v.m. een concert in het stadspark. De bushalte naar het evenement is op hele korte loopafstand.

Cons:

De kamer was ontzettend warm en de tv werkte niet.

Great location, friendly staff, affordable!
Pros:

I like that the location is very center to everything. Literally next to a supermarket so it was easy to get anything I needed! It was also surrounded by cafes, bars, and restaurants!

Cons:

I wish that the hotel has airco. My room faced the front door, and it's summer so we slept with the window open. I couldnt sleep because there are always people around and being loud. It's fine, it's what living in the center means. However, had the hotel has airco, this wouldnt be a problem.

Top locatie, maar mag wel wat onderhoud gebruiken
Pros:

De kamer was zeer schoon en het personeel was top.

Cons:

De staat en temperatuur van de kamer. De badkamer was ernstig versleten, de douche schommelde enorm qua temperatuur.
Doordat er geen ventilatie was en het raam niet ver open kon, was de temperatuur zeer hoog op de kamer.

Pros:

Location, breakfast.

Cons:

For the price charged ,room was dreadful, no aircon, the double bed took all the space up ,about 2 foot from the bottom of the bed to the wall ,no cupboards to put clothes in, wardrobe was a wooden frame with 4 coat hangers, access to the shower and toilet was via a small stairs with no handrail.
Some towels were threadbare! In my opinion because of a major sporting event (Dutch tt) the price charged reflected this, I've stayed in better hotels with better facilities for a lot less.
