Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with spacious beds, although the noise from neighboring rooms can be quite loud. The friendly and helpful service staff goes the extra mile, especially when dealing with any issues. The location is excellent, providing easy access to various city attractions and transportation options. However, the dining experience falls short with limited breakfast hours. Overall, a great value for money stay with some minor drawbacks to consider.
This hotel is perfect for slim gaming nerds and friends with good noise tolerance who don't mind close rooms without air conditioning but appreciate a big screen. The location is quiet and cozy, a great change from the Centrum, with easy access to walk around. Dining could use more variety but is delicious despite being slightly pricey.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were above average and quiet with super fast internet, but the dining options were a bit limited. The service was good overall with a minor issue concerning travel advice. The location was fantastic, and the hotel offered some delicious dining options.
The hotel is located in a cool and multicultural neighborhood with plenty of bars and restaurants around. While the room was a bit cramped, the staff was lovely, and there were many gaming opportunities. The hotel is not in the city center but worked out perfectly for us.
The hotel is in a convenient location with good access to trams and restaurants, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are small but well-maintained, suitable for a short trip. The service provided is exceptional, with helpful staff and even hotel cats adding to the charm. The dining options, while decent, could be improved considering the price. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor areas for enhancement.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. Despite the small room size and lack of facilities, the location across from a park with a wonderful market and close to multiple tram lines was a big plus. The service, while friendly, could have been more attentive. Dining options were hostel-style and somewhat pricey, but at least there was unlimited coffee and tea available.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were newly renovated, and the cleaning staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The location was perfect, right in front of a beautiful park and only a 10-minute bike ride from the city center. However, the dining options were a bit expensive for what they offered.
The hotel is situated in a wonderful neighborhood with plenty of small restaurants and the vibrant Albert Cuypmarkt nearby. The rooms were well-equipped and spacious, though some finishing touches were still missing, such as bathroom LED lights. The view facing the park was delightful, while the front of the building was a bit ordinary.
