My experience was TERRIBLE.I initially booked two nights and extended for a third. The first night was fine, and the staff were great. However, on the second night, around 4 a.m., a woman entered my room using the same card key I had, as the door had no internal lock. It was terrifying, and soon after, a staff member entered to apologize. Can you imagine that two people entered my room while I was in bed? I couldn’t sleep after that. In the morning, the staff seemed unaware of what had happened, and I requested to speak with the manager, who wasn’t available. Later, I was told it was a technical error. I had to change rooms as I didn’t feel safe. On the third day, the hotel asked me to move my belongings during my internship, which led to several phone negotiations to keep my things in the room until I returned. This was the worst hotel experience I've ever had in Europe, even compared to budget hotels, as I never felt safe.

I stayed here at Deluxe Studio for 2 weeks for my internship at the university hospital. My room was very big. Even though I was on the 1st floor, it was quiet. It had a fully equipped kitchen, coffee machine, table and television. The entire hotel was very tastefully decorated and energetic. There is a vending machine containing personal care products for your urgent needs. There are many loud/quiet places to study. I made new friends here. I attended yoga, circuit workout and survival dutch class (all were free). The location is close to everywhere. There are 2 different bus stops within 3-4 minutes walking distance. 15-20 minutes walking distance to the train station. I will choose it again in different cities in the future. I recommend it to everyone, especially students. Thanks Social Hub!

The staff is from another world :) that only was worth the stay! No matter my questions, they went for the extra mile, just cause they thought about my ask and took it from there. The whole building is filled with young and positive attitude.||Keep up the good work!
