Stanza spaziosa a dieci minuti a piedi dal centro
Pros:

L’arredo delle stanza, il fatto che fosse molto spaziosa. Tutto molto pulito.

Cons:

Il materasso era troppo morbido, sembrava di affondare. Anche i cuscini erano troppo piccoli per un cuscino da letto.

Comfortabel
Pros:

De locatie was prima, het bed was goed, de kamer schoon. leuke multi culti wijk, tegenover een treinstation.

Cons:

Zelf Check-in was onpersoonlijk vond ik, maar dat zal voor iedereen anders zijn.
Geen lift, dus dan is 3 trappen met zware koffer zwaar.
1 nachtkastlampje was stuk.
Het is rumoerig op straat, had raam open, was warm op de kamer, stoorde mij niet heel erg, maar wel iets om je te realiseren..

Pros:

The accommodation was in a great location, as I wanted to use the train connection from Botanic station several times.

Cons:

The accommodation was poorly soundproofed. It is not suitable for people with light sleep, as there is also a lot going on on the streets in the neighbourhood.

The room was only made sporadically. I was there for a week. After the first night there were new towels in the bathroom. Subsequently, they were no longer changed. So far acceptable for me, but partly not even the garbage was emptied.

Good value and convenience without compromising comfort.
Pros:

Location was just right for my needs. Virtually opposite Botanic station and a short walk to city centre. Surrounded by a wide choice of restaurants, bars and shops.
Large, clean modern room and bathroom.
Self check was quite easy even for an old luddite like myself.
Only interacted with one member of staff who was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Bit tight with the tea bags.
