Great location - within walking distance to the train station as well as into the city center. Little supermarket nearby. Also there are some nice restaurants in the area. There is free tea and coffee as well as free fruit in the lobby. I had a room out onto the street, but it was not at all noisy. I attached the view I had from my window. The interior of the hotel is nicely decorated.

The hotel is in an excellent location to explore Leiden and close enough to the train station. The staff is super friendly. Perhaps the highlight for me was the breakfast which offered a great selection of food and drinks of very good quality.

Smell in bathroom due to lack of decent ventilation and build up of water during shower. No shower door means half of bathroom floor gets wet. Need to hold button to flush toilet properly. Found urine and tissue in bathroom upon arrival. Bedroom floor had stain in middle of floor (bad paint job). Bed pillow arranged as if someone took a nap. No fridge. No robes. No bottled water. Blurry tv without HD channels. Window didn't close properly so had some noise early in the night.
Friendly staff. Good location.

“Worn down hotel, too expensive for what it is”

This hotel is very worn down, and it looks like nothing has been changed or updated since about the 60s. The room looked old and tired, the bed was uncomfortable with pillows in which the cotton was completely clumped together, and the shower was awful. Some of the sockets weren’t working and the wardrobe was about to fall apart. I wasn’t expecting a luxury hotel but given the price it should at least be comfortable.
The location was good

Since it’s an old building Convert it to a hotel the rooms are kind of funny shaped/located. Our room headache support pole right in front of the door And one right next to the bed. Also the bed The hotel should really do something about that and install a fitting headboard. The shower was nice however while showering the whole floor got wet/flooded. A half (flip-flop type) shower door or curtain would be appreciated . There was a glitch in the booking (either with booking. Com or hotel??) that indicated that there was only 1 person/ breakfast whereas I had booked for 2 with breakfast for day2 of stay. Day 1 we were not booked with breakfast. Somehow a breakfast was listed a breakfast for day 1, when we did NOT have breakfast at the hotel. (We ran out day 1 and grabbed a Dunkin donuts which is down the road. Reception staff kindly adjusted this.
The location is very good and central . Reception staff was nice.

Lighting in room atrocious No power outlet at bedside Bathroom - no mirror light, no shelf for cosmetics etc., fixed shower head. A hook or two to hang something would be helpful. Breakfast is overpriced considering the many excellent cafes nearby that serve a great breakfast for under €10
