Disappointing Hotel Experience
Pros:

Only the location

Cons:

The hotel was in very poor condition. At 11 p.m., we discovered that our smart key no longer worked, leaving us unable to access our room. We had to call repeatedly and spent almost an hour trying to reach someone before finally getting a response. Fortunately, a Booking.com customer support agent assisted us in resolving the issue.

In addition, we were assigned a room on the top floor where the air conditioning was not working. One of the windows had no curtains, making it difficult to sleep comfortably. The room door did not open and close properly from the beginning of our stay, and several shower tiles were loose and not properly attached to the floor.

Overall, the room was poorly maintained, and the lack of assistance and basic amenities made our stay very disappointing.

Pros:

Room was very spacious and comfortable. Location was perfect for our needs.

Cons:

No code received then when arrived there was no-one to receive us as all done remotely. We got anxious that we would not be able to get into our room and because we had limited time to shower and get ready for our event. It didn't help that there was no response when we tried calling the number indicated. We had also already tried to contact the hotel via Whatsapp a few hours earlier.

Viel tegen veel te warm. Was niet echt een hotelkamer
Pros:

Dat het in het centrum lag

Cons:

Ik lag recht onder het dak, de airco was kapot, er kon geen raam open, er hing geen gordijn voor het raam, geen kast aanwezig, geen waterkoker of koffieapparaat, geen toiletartikelen, deur gaat moeilijk open. Het was bloedheet en men deed net alsof het een verrassing was dat de airco kapot was terwijl er een brief met “Defect” op hing. Hoop niet dat er vanavond iemand moet slapen

Great location in the center of The Hague
Pros:

The room we had was at the back of the property so nice and quiet. The room was clean and in good condition so don't agree with some of the comments made. But this may be specific per room as all rooms seem to be different.

Cons:

Don't expect a fully staffed hotel. We saw someone on check in but otherwise there was hardly any staff around. This also means there is no opportunity for breakfast.

飯店房間有的樓層,電梯有抵達;有的房間電梯無抵達,只能走樓梯扛行李
Pros:

地點離景點近,旁邊有Q park停車場(只不過停車場沒有連接飯店,得要走樓梯離開;不過我是走別家飯店坐電梯)

Cons:

飯店會給連結,手機滑動飯店給的連結,門鎖即可感應開門,首先 第一個連結是進入飯店大門,第二個連結是你房間(我check in時沒有工作人員,還好打WhatsApp 有人接電話,請人來幫忙我看一下)

Fijne overnachting.
Pros:

Uitstekende locatie.
Heel royale kamers.
Vlotte check-in, ook communicatie op voorhand verliep vlot.

Cons:

Eén van de geboekte kamers had geen werkende airco. Deze kamer was niet comfortabel om in te slapen.
Het hotel liet telefonisch weten dat hier niets aan gedaan kon worden op het moment zelf.

Not very positively "surprised", hotel did not fulfil my expectations.
Pros:

The building gave a feeling of past glory, the room had a very high ceiling. Very convenient location close to the train station.

Cons:

The carpet on the floor was covering up uneven and a few places holes in the (wooden?) floor below. Door between sleeping room and bathroom could not be closed.

Lovely hotel with no personal touch (by design)
Pros:

Good central location, reasonable value for money, in a nice old historic building. Interesting use of technology, which eliminated the need for any staff to be present.

Cons:

On a warmish night, you could not open any of the large windows, and the airco did not work, and when I reached out via WhatsApp (the only way to connect to the staff / hotel) I got no response. Also, despite the room being very big with two large double beds, there was no cupboard space, and no rack on which to hang coats, suits, etc.

Great location
Pros:

The location is great and very close to the train station. It was clean and comfortable.

Cons:

Our room was a bit odd in that it had a large transparent dome on the ceiling but no window in the room. If you want to sleep in past sunrise, it will wake you. There was a window in the bathroom.
