Cons:

De airco op onze kamer kon niet uitgezet worden. De regelunit was kapot. Het was steenkoud op de kamer waarbij de koude luchtstroom op onze gezichten waaide. Dit uiteraard gemeld bij de receptie. Ze kwamen kijken maar konden het niet oplossen. Ook een andere kamer behoorde niet tot de opties. Uiteindelijk maar zoveel mogelijk onder de lakens gelegen met een petje op.

De volgende ochtend bij het uitchecken werd er niet eens gevraagd hoe ons verblijf was bevallen. Zelf dus maar aangegeven dat we niet tevreden waren. De receptie medewerker vroeg daarna om ons emailadres achter te laten zodat de bedrijfsleider contact op kon nemen. Na 2 dagen niets gehoord, dus zelf maar via Booking.com een mail verstuurd. Ook daar duurde het lang voordat er een reactie kwam. Toen wel met de nodige excuses en een aanbieding om korting te krijgen op ons volgende verblijf. Aangegeven dat dit niet echt een tegemoetkoming is aangezien we dit hotel als tussenstop gebruikten voor onze eindbestemming. Ons voorstel was om een deel terug te betalen van de boeking. Op ons voorstel is nooit meer een reactie gekomen. Kortom, wij komen hier nooit meer.

Pros:

Good location

Cons:

We arrived around 8pm after 10 hours of driving. The reception tried to sell us a parking location that was 10 minutes away from the hotel (walk) without mentioning underground parking. When I objected, she said it's for people who book more than 3 nights! Finally I got it but it was strange. Her English was also terrible

Pros:

The overall location is best, breakfast is ok.

Cons:

Overall the hotel is good, but not doing anything for customer delight. Giving a small chocolate on any guests birthday is a delight but the hotel misses this in-spite of an International brand.

Room AC was not effective and the shower handle was leaking. 422 Room.
