Comfortable stay with helpful staff.

Very friendly and helpful manager. Our room was south facing and got quite warm. The air con was not able to cope with it. Immediately offered a room swap which we declined as it meant moving all our belongings on day 2. Instead a fan was put in our room for our comfort. Complimentary continental breakfast was good. Quite a good selection and very fresh pastries. Location 2 mins walk from a very regular tram service to the train stations and centre of town.

Great place for it’s price

Really cheap considering quality, this hotel used to be a no-go for me because of location but now the tram outside goes direct to Zuid and Centraal since I lasted visited so it’s great!! Clean bathroom and beds, kosher food options for breakfast and nice staff, have no complaints

Mark

Ok hotel, very bad breakfast

Hotel was reasonably good, as can be expected. Decent size room, but lack of storage opportunities for clothing etc. which will leave you to live out of your suitcase for the stay. Absolute downside is the breakfast - all prebaked goods were absolutely burned, not just once, but daily. You would be able to knock someone out with the croissants served at the breakfast. Apart from the breakfast, the hotel in general was ok, but it is a strange thing that you can store your luggage on the arrival day before checking in - but, if you need to store it the day of departure because of a late flight, then you have to pay for it.

We enjoyed our 3 night stay very much. The rooms are large enough, with ample room for luggage. The daily breakfast is very good. Proximity to the tram station and grocery stores are both very convenient options. Overall, a very pleasant stay and will definitely recommend.
