Bed & Breakfast Onder Dak

The B&B islocated in a rustic area near Groningen. The house is nicely decorated and felt comfortable. The breakfast was great.

Google maps didn’t properly direct me to the house.

It was an enjoyable stay. We had everything we needed and a great breakfast. It is clear that the hosts love what they do and what they offer.

Friendly hosts, good breakfast.

Cold room and separate bathroom, poor sound isolation between the rooms.

The B&B is situated 11 kms outside of the city of Groningen, which translates to a mere 30 minutes by bus or 40 by bike. Perfect location if you want some peace & quiet, want to explore the countryside or do some walking. Onder Dak could also serve as an excellent basecamp if you (as I did) need to spend several days in the city to work at ESNS. The village of Scharmer / Harkstede is really quiet, but there is a bus every 30 minutes. Breakfast was really good, there is an abundance of everything you could ask for. The owners are very friendly and helped me, for instance when my work required me to change my early check-in to a midnight one. Room was great, equipped with a sink, has lots of windows and the bed was perfect: solid stuff, slept like a rose, 4 nights in a row. Recommended!

Nice and friendly, clean and silent

Clean, comfortable, big rooms with own bathroom and kitchen with all needed appliances. Calm and safe area with private parking. Good basic local breakfast, which they serve more of if desired. Friendly and actively communicating hosts, for example they spotted we had left a pillow and earphones in our room within five minutes after we left, and called us back to retrieve them, even though it took them a few attempts. Charging an electric vehicle is a nice bonus, but unfortunately only possible if your vehicle has a Type 1 plug, or you have a plug convertor with you.

The rooms are right under the roof and pretty warm on a summer night. There is a fan in each room, but they're maybe not quite powerful enough for the size of the rooms. Fortunately we had a couple of fans with us from our own, so we slept well, and maybe would also have slept well enough without them. Payments in cash only are a bit inconvenient in these times, but there is an ATM nearby (700 m away), and on the other hand they also provide the possibility for free cancelation until the last minute. All in all the minuses are quite minor.
