Pros:

Het ontbijt was een ramp , alle dagen hetzelfde en heel pover . Brood was meestal oudbakken . Geen frisdrank , geen fruit of yoghurt.Koffie was er meestal niet .Donderdag toegekomen en op Dinsdag was de kamer maar 1 keer gepoetst . Een schande was het .

Cons:

Alles had beter gekund . De kraan van de lavabo is nooit gepoetst , toilet was echt vies toen we vertrokken.
