Ondanks het feit dat het hotel aan het renoveren was, voelde de kamer knus aan.

Non mi è piaciuto
Pros:

Sono stati disponibili per il check-in in quanto purtroppo siamo arrivate tardi. E ci hanno permesso di parcheggiare internamente le biciclette.

Cons:

La luce del bagno della stanza non funzionava.
Camera rumorosa. La struttura non è per niente tenuta bene. E la porta della camera non si chiudeva bene. Io non mi sono sentita sicura.
La posizione sembrerebbe ottima, ma davanti all’hotel non c’era bella gente.
Personalmente non mi sono trovata bene

Prima locatie. Wel veel lawaai tot laat
Pros:

Ligging vlak bij centrum aan plein

Cons:

Uitstraling van de accomodatie. Ook veel lawaai in de nacht: raam moest dichtblijven door de herrie.

Great central location but it should be closed till repairs completed
Pros:

The room was basic but had all facilites we needed
Staff were friendly; cleaning staff helpful, efficient.

Cons:

Constant repairs in the lobby and on the roof
Bricklayers on the flat roof open to the sky in the event of rain, which we had to cross to reach our first floor room.
. Multiple snaking wires coming from the ceiling and cupboard in the lobby being accessed by electricians.
Very old weak door lock which opened onto the flat roof. Easy to break into room
Rusted 'balcony' door, unable to be opened.

Prima voor 1 nachtje met vriendinnen.
Pros:

De locatie en de goede bedden.

Cons:

Dat er geen ontbijt meer is om bij te boeken. En dat het erg gehorig is vanwege enkel glas, houten verdiepingsvloeren en metalen trap. De balkondeur die half uitelkaar viel

nice view
Pros:

駅からゆっくり歩いて10分かからない距離にあり、アクセス良かったです。
飲食店も周りに多かったです。
夕方、朝など写真を撮りに散歩しましたが、運河が目の前なので素敵な景色が見れました。
駅からホテルに行く途中でも風車が見れます。

翌朝キュウケンホフ行くのに 朝一番のバスを予約していたので、チェックアウト後の荷物を朝少し早くから預かってもらえました。

Cons:

特にありませんが、やはりエレベーターがないので少し大変でした。
事前にわかっていたので、荷物は最小限にしていました。
