Super nice place outside the hotel to be very relaxed.The hotel also looks neat at first glance, but everything is tired or of a very poor quality.You don't sit in the chairs in the rooms for pleasure. The beds are also well past their expiration date. Looked like a hammockI had not booked breakfast, just wanted a cup of coffee. Was treated as if I were a thief, especially at the checkout very unfriendlyKind regards, Spencer

Been here before 3 years ago and it was fantastic.Now booked again for a few days at the beginning of September, but it is now a faded glory.Rooms not clean, had to remove 4 spiders hanging from the ceiling.Overdue maintenance regarding painting in the room and hall.A lot of noise from the wind in the air vents in the facade that could not be closed because they were broken. These sealed with tissues.Unfortunately no refrigerator or coffee maker in the room.Very simply furnished.

Nice hotel with spacious rooms that can serve as a perfect base for cycling trips. The hotel is also bicycle friendly, with a covered bicycle shed with the possibility to charge the batteries. Good and decent breakfast and friendly staff. Has a restaurant where breakfast also takes place and a great terrace for a snack and a drink.

We spent a few days in the hotel with friends. The location is great. The rooms are just OK, the bathroom (shower) still has a lot of room for improvement. What was bad was that when we checked into the room we were told that the sliding door didn't work. It was supposed to be repaired the next day, but after several complaints it was still not repaired on the 6th day. The breakfast was very good. The parking spaces looked bad at the weekend and there were no problems during the week.

We spent 3 nights, the rooms are boring, there is a photo on the wall, and for that room price there could be a kettle to make your own cup of coffee/tea.There was also no information available in the room.The restaurant and staff are very hospitable and friendly.

the hotel itself is terrible, I arrived and immediately saw that the door had been through a lot, the beds were still in good condition, but the bathroom was very mediocre. The location is great. Had a nice drink with another man

Dirty rooms. Dirty, austere, gloomy, little convenience, overdue maintenance.

Nice location, but we are still looking for the 4 stars.Our ground floor room (standard land side) had no ventilation options, except for swinging open the outside door, so you can directly touch the cars in the parking lot; In other words, it is not desirable to leave this door open at night. The door window cannot be set to tilt. We made our dissatisfaction with the room clear several times at the reception, but it was not possible to switch with another room ... because the chamber maids could not include this switch in the planning. After 3 contacts, after 24 hours, a ventilator was finally made available. Strange that comfort in a 4 star hotel depends on a number of standing fans.At breakfast we had to clear our own tray; not bad in itself, but it gives more of a refectory feeling than the services of a 4 star hotel.4 stars? Apparently easily awarded... Insufficient!

You can do it, but you don't have to.A lot of things are simply clearly worn out and not sufficiently cared for.For example the beds, totally worn out.The parking situation is catastrophic because it is a public parking lot.The dining area is again very nicely decorated and the staff is friendly.Personally, however, I wouldn't give the hotel 4 stars; I also miss more hygiene and a more loving design.
