Super
Pros:

Locatie, service, kamer, badkamer, riante ontbijt

Cons:

Geen airco bij erg warm weer. Wel keurig horregaas voor achterraam, zodat dat open kon blijven.

Pros:

Breakfast and location are really nice. Room is big, neat and clean.

Cons:

You are either an upscale accommodation or not. So while the restaurant has 1 Michelin star (I did not have dinner there) having a room 4 meters from the restaurant-terrace and right next to kitchen is very awkward and, worse; very noisy until late. I did not sleep well at all. They seem to cater mainly to restaurant guests. Being there as an overnight 'hotel' guest without dining was just not the right fit. When checking out, one should always ask how things were. Especially on the hospitality level they work at. But... they did not ask a thing. Another awkward moment. To be fair; other guests seem to be enjoying themselves and the booked arrangements. But for me it did not work at all.

Prima
Pros:

De locatie is echt prachtig, sfeervol en bosrijk. Bedden prima, erg vriendelijk personeel. Klein terrasje voor de kamer. Verzorgt tuintje om terras, gezellig.

Cons:

Ontbijt wordt gebracht aan tafel. Ikzelf vind buffet fijner, maar dat is misschien persoonlijk.
