"Degelijk, opzich zou ik het wel aanraden aan anderen."

8.0

De locatie is makkelijk bereikbaar met het openbaar vervoer en er zijn voldoende pubs, winkels en horeca in de buurt. Het is een gedeelde badkamer maar deze had een heerlijke douche. We hebben bijna niet gemerkt dat we deze deelden met een andere kamer.

Het personeel dat onze sleutel kwam brengen omdat deze niet beschikbaar was in het sleutelkastje deed niet eens de moeite om hallo te zeggen. Ze bleef gezellig aan de telefoon praten, duwde de sleutel in onze handen en ging verder bellen. Het bed viel eerder klein uit, als je geen koppel bent of het is heel warm zou dit lastig zijn.

Добраться было легко, транспортное сообщение удобно, заселение было легко и понятно, номер достаточно удобный и чистый.

Так как мы остановились летом, то неплохо было бы маленький холодильник для напитков.

"Clean and comfortable accommodation"

9.0

The room was very clean, the bed was comfy, and the shower had good power with toiletries included. We had no face to face communication with the owners/staff, however, email instructions were clear and we were supplied with a phone number to call if required

The room was very warm and as the window didn't open, we couldn't cool the room down

"Une très bonne nuit dans un lieu propre et bien situé"

9.0

Le petit plus de la bouilloire avec l'essentiel pour se préparer une boisson chaude. Le réglage automatique de la douche. Le confort du matelas.

Un peu de bruit cependant, de la part du voisinage.

"Vreselijk!!"

3.0

Niet veel

Wanneer de douche aanging leek er wel een vliegtuig op te starten. Ook als je naar de wc ging. Niets van de leidingen waren geïsoleerd. De laatste dag zelfs geen warm water. Volgens het hotel konden we parkeren in de zijstraat maar toch een bon gekregen. Blijkt achteraf dat je maar aan 1 kant mag parkeren. Dit was niet vermeld op de website etc. Ook was niet vermeld dat onze kamer twee hoog was dus ook met koffers drie trappen op.

It was clean enough

On Booking.com it states bed and breakfast but no breakfast is supplied. Our room faced onto the back garden which was a complete mess and the window was filthy
