Goed en degelijk hotel, perfect voor een 1-night stop als je geen plannen hebt in de avond verder
Pros:

Ruime kamer en groot bed

Cons:

De ligging is niet ideaal met weinig voorzieningen direct rond het hotel. Je kan naar Hoofddorp met de bus, of Amsterdam met de trein.

Good value for the price.
Pros:

It was clean, although rather old and outdated. Sheets very nice but the pillows were too big. Overall nice hotel for a night or two.

Cons:

The wall in the room was cracked. There was no water in the coffee machine and no toothbrush kit. Th heating sistem couldn’t be “convinced “ of set up to a higher temperature in the room.

Be Cautious Booking Prepaid Reservations Here
Pros:

I understand that prepaid and non-refundable reservations come with restrictions. However, I was extremely disappointed by the lack of flexibility and customer care shown throughout this experience.

I contacted the property multiple times regarding an unexpected personal emergency and respectfully requested consideration in the form of a partial refund, future credit, or revised travel dates. Responses often took close to a week between replies and ultimately offered no meaningful assistance.

What made this especially disappointing was that several other hotels on the same multi-city European trip — including prepaid reservations — were willing to show at least some level of understanding or good will. Unfortunately, this property chose not to.

As an ALL Accor member who has done considerable previous business with Accor properties, that made the experience even more frustrating.

Policies are one thing. How a hotel chooses to treat guests is another. Based on this experience — especially for an airport hotel where travel plans can and do change — I would be very cautious about booking a prepaid reservation here in the future.
