Good hotel right next to motorway.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent, one of the best I've had in the Netherlands. Often Dutch hotel breakfasts are just white bread and maybe boiled eggs, but here it was a good selection of warm and cold items.
Room was big, good bed and bathroom was very nice.

Cons:

Hotel is under renovation and parking area was mostly a big walled construction yard. Better signing would be helpful, now I was really wondering if I am in the right place at all since the hotel building itself seemed deserted behind the construction area. In the end I found one parking spot as another car happened to leave, and I realized where the temporary reception is. But definitely needs better signing, and clearer parking facilities for the duration of the renovation.

Pros:

Prima ontbijt en uitstekende kamer. Vriendelijk en professioneel personeel.

Cons:

Spijtig van de verbouwingswerkzaamheden maar niet zo heel veel last van behalve dat er veel laadpalen voor de elektrische wagens verwijderd waren.

Afgezien van de te laat gemelde verbouwingsperikelen was het in orde.
Pros:

Medewerkers prima, eten prima, kamer prima.

Mooie omgeving.

Lekker centraal.

Cons:

Er wordt behoorlijk verbouwd en wij kregen daarvan heel laat - te laat!- bericht. Mijn vrouw is minder valide, dus dat is niet charmant zo'n late berichtgeving. Het was mooi weer, dat scheelde. Maar dit had qua informatie vooraf veel beter gekund en m.i. ook gemoeten. Duidelijk minpunt voor v.d. Valk. Mijn vrouw worstelde zich er wel doorheen, maar ik vond het ook qua afstand naar de eetzaal e.d. te zwaar voor haar. Bij regen had ik wellicht gezegd: we gaan naar huis.
Verder kleine dingetjes: geen ochtendkranten verkrijgbaar of gratis op de leestafel, geen echt speciaal bier op de tap. Hoeft ook niet, maar ik verheug mij daar altijd op. Was nogal standaard.

uitstekend!
Pros:

eigenlijk alles: de maaltijden, de kamer, de badkamer, de parkeergelegenheid, de bereikbaarheid (met eigen vervoer), de groene omgeving en de nabijheid van bezienswaardigheden zoals museum Westerbork

Cons:

ik kan niets bedenken, we hebben ons nergens aan geërgerd; of het moest zijn dat hotelbedden voor ons - vanwege onze geringe lengte - wat te hoog zijn, al zijn ze wel comfortabel
