Pros:

Le personnel est agréable.
Le coin enfants est agréable.

Cons:

L'hôtel n'est pas du tout propre. Des murs cassés la propreté de l'établissement est catastrophique.
Les chambres sont dégueulasse. Plein de poussière, des tache sur les matelas, des taches sur l'immobilier qu'on arrive même plus a enlever. Des reste de papier en plastique que j'ai retrouver parterre, une brosse a dents en-dessous du lit. Le ventilateur qui est cassé et qu'il n'ont pas remplacé. Les armoires qu'on arrive pas a ouvrir. Notre lit est tes fais "des parents" mais ceux des enfants non. Il manquait des sets draps de lit et des sets d'essuies pour se laver. La douche est minuscule et en plus pour rentrer dans la douche y a la vanne du chauffage qui ce trouve juste devant donc encore plus compliqué pour rentrée. 4 chaises pour une chambre de 6.

Pros:

Het hotel ligt dicht tegen het centrum. Heel vriendelijk onthaal. Prijs kwaliteit zeker goed voor 1 nachtje. Ontbijt was lekker.

Cons:

Ondanks de vele papieren die omhoog hangen die vragen om stilte na 22u, was het nog vrij luid in de gangen. Ook buiten veel verkeer en gierende auto's.
