Hotel très correcte avec une belle ambiance
Pros:

Très bon hôtel, probablement sous noté car cela reste de très bonne qualité. Ambiance jeunes/familles avec ping pong, billard, jeux de sociétés etc. Nombreux espaces de travail. Les chambres sont un peu petites. Ok seul mais à deux cela me semble juste (et pas de 2e table de nuit ou lampe de chevet). Café et restaurant (prix raisonnables à moins de 20 euros). Pas de cuisine où les voyageurs peuvent se préparer à manger (pas une auberge de jeunesse). Très belle ambiance. Très proche de tout. A 20 min en bus dessert 2 universités (arrêt à 50m de l'hôtel).

Cons:

Lit très propre, mais sols et wc pas impeccables à l'arrivée. Gym ouvert à mon arrivée, utilisé les 2 premiers jours et ensuite ils l'ont fermé pour rénovations sans prévenir !!! Résultat les 3 deniers jours pas de gym. Surtout, si j'avais su j'aurais adapte ma séance de la veille. Enfin, il y avait des moustiques dehors côté court. J'ai demandé spéciquement à donner mon service ménage à une bonne cause (option proposée, c'est top!), mais malheureusement, le 2e jour la femme de ménage est passée quand même et s'est permise de laisser la fenêtre ouverte... résultat 4 piqûres de moustique la nuit suivante. Ils ont fait un petit geste (boisson gratuite), mais c'était très désagréable!

Decepcionante, el próximo viaje a Groningen buscaré otro hotel
Cons:

Habitación muy pequeña e incomoda. No volveré a este hotel.
Estuve en 09/25 y la habitación era grande y cómoda.
En cambio en 04/26 la habitación era pequeña e incomoda.

Jederzeit gerne wieder. Achtung aber beim Badezimmer
Pros:

Die Lage ist top und das Personal super freundlich.

uitstekend
Pros:

personeel is zeer aardig en kundig, ontbijt hebben we niet genomen, de koffie was niet best... blijven oefenen!

Cons:

de koffie dus... helaas. en de douche loopt niet goed af. dat weet het personeel en legt de reden dus ook uit als je ernaar vraagt. maar als je nietsvermoedend de douche aanzet, loopt het water zo je kamer in...

Pros:

Odlična lokacija i pogled na grad, prostor za rad je vrlo popularan i dosta se koristi. Sobe su komforne i kupatila su opremljena paletom kozmetike.
