Ein schönes altes Hotel mit besonderen Flair.
Pros:

Ich hatte einen kleinen Zimmer mit Bad und Toilette,aber für mich alleine war es in Ordnung. Was mich super gut gefallen war der Wäsche Service 👍 Bei meiner Fahrrad Tour durch die Provinzen Nord Holland ,Friesland und Watten Inseln , war das für mich perfekt 🤩 . Der Vermieter war sehr nett und freundlich , wir haben uns sehr gut unterhalten können da Er auch gut deutsch sprechen konnte.Auch mein Fahrrad war im Hinterhof gut versteckt.

Pros:

Goed

Cons:

De kamer heeft geen raam, alleen een dakraam. Krankzinnig. Je voelt je claustrofobisch. De reactie van het hotel...tja dit is een budget kamer.

Pros:

Frühstück super

Cons:

Keine Mastercardzahlung möglich, Hotel sehr alt, durchbrochene Fußböden....Ausstattung altertümlich, Hotel wird wohl nur noch verwaltet aber nichts mehr gestaltet. Keine Ankündigung dass mann vor dem Haus nicht parken kann . Schade, für diese Leistung viel zu teuer!!!

A pragmatic stop, but perhaps not Harlingen’s #1
Pros:

Great location. Breakfast buffet was ample with a good choice.

Cons:

Small rooms. Very small bathroom. Bed was sagging in the middle. The property feels old and tired.
