Lage gut. Die Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen.
Pros:

Gute Lage für einen Besuch in Schiedam.

Cons:

Bettwäsche war neu. Der Rest des Zimmers war nicht gereinigt. Abfalleimer wer noch voll. Im Zimmer befanden sich noch Notizen und Reste des Vorgängers. Das Waschbecken im Bad war noch verschmutzt. Obwohl Rauchverbot im Zimmer roch es stark nach kaltem Rauch.

Voor 1 nacht prima met een goede locatie.
Pros:

De locatie en het café downstairs

Cons:

De badkamer was niet zuiver en we hadden pech dat 2 vrouwen de hele nacht tot 5.30 uur op het terras hebben liggen kletsen. Ongelofelijk. Verder was de accommodatie wel rustig.

Afrader wat ons betreft
Pros:

De locatie en de hardheid van de bedden.

Cons:

Kamers waren smerig, net als sanitair. Kraan bij wastafel zat los, veel vlekken en kringen overal. Thee was niet bijgevuld, geen bekertjes op de kamer voor water/thee. Geen zeep, geen afstandsbediening van TV gevonden. Stank (sigaretten?) op de gang.

Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

La limpieza. Ya he estado un par de veces. El hotel es muy sencillo y limpio. Pero está vez mi habitación está bien sucia. Nevera sucia, lavabo sucio, como que lo habían limpiado sin ganas.

Admired the windmill
Pros:

Loved the balcony, view of operating windmill and private bathroom. I believe the room also had a small fridge and tea/coffee making facilities (kettle) which I liked. I liked the surroundings of this hotel as it reminded me of old Rotterdam.

Cons:

The shared toilet had to be reached across the landing, and the steps on first floor were kind of steep and narrow to climb with a suitcase. But staff extremely friendly and helpful. Would like to go again.

Pros:

Super ontspannen plek met prachtig uitzicht op de molen, en de ontvangst is onwijs sympathiek!

Cons:

De badkamer kan wel een keer een grondige schoonmaak gebruiken.

Veel van de zaken en hoekjes zijn toch een beetje afgeleefd, maar ik vind dat eigenlijk ook wel weer charmant.

You get what you pay for, in this case even less...
Pros:

Free Wifi, close to Schiedam Centrum and public transport.

Cons:

Dirty beds with smelly sheets. After telling management, they changed them, but damn, they clearly hadn't been changed after the last person, even though everything was nicely folded and prepared for the next guest. Gross. The shared bathroom is disgusting, and the ladies' toilet is even worse, with used pads left behind. During the night, the entrance door was left unlocked and couldn't be locked, so I'm sure some people from the street are coming to use the toilet. The bathroom is literally just a hose and four walls, with no sanitary products provided. The ashtray on the balcony was full to the rim and spilled everywhere. I'm honestly surprised this accommodation is even allowed to operate in the Netherlands.

Nem jó szállás
Pros:

Olcso volt többihez képest, központi helyen volt

Cons:

Azt írták van Wc, közben csak közös volt. Mocsok volt a szobába, tele hajjal, kosszal a föld. Az ágynemű is koszos volt a zuhanyfüggöny kritikán aluli. Konnektorok fele nem működött, hűtő nem működött. Wifihez nem volt hozzàférés. Kicsekkolásról nem kaptunk infót

Pros:

Geen ontbijt genuttigd.
Er was een balkonnetje

Cons:

Aangebroken blikjes en pakjes in de koelkast.
Laatste dag zag ik dat er haren van een eerdere bewoner op het onderlaken lagen.
Vloer was ook niet schoon. Kortom, hygiëne was slecht
