    The web site advertises a restaurant, but this was a bit ambiguous. As the restaurant didn't really seem to operate on a normal basis, I think some more restaurant recommendations would have been helpful

    The bedroom was spacious and beautifully designed. The staff were charming. Breakfast was very good. The location was nice, but quite a long walk from the centre

    I could have done with a thicker covering on my bed for the chilly night-time temperature.

    The hotel gave me a very nice ground floor room with my own external door leading to a semi-private sitting-out area and the hotel's small but charming back garden beyond. The ambience of my room was very pleasant, with striking decor on the wall behind the bed, and good quality lighting fixtures. The cork (rather than plastic) swipecard by way of a room 'key' was an interesting and eco-friendly feature. I appreciated having tea and coffee making facilities in the room. My bathroom had a substantial bathtub, and I enjoyed making full use of this. The hotel's buffet breakfast was very nice, with a good range of food and drink on offer. Staff were all friendly and helpful, and although it's quite a small hotel, their reception desk was manned around the clock. The hotel was conveniently located on the edge of the Museums Quarter, on a tram route and just 4 minutes walk from a metro station (Dijkzigt).

    Internet very poor. You must lockin every 3 minutes. It does not stay open when you lock in. They want to charge me additional fees when I booked out. We booked in Sep 2023 through Booking.com. There was a special if you pay immediatwly which we did. Not a nice experience when you check out and they want another 300 Euro from you

    Breakfast could be improved a bit - not green for me, more veg and fruits.

    Simple but old style hotel - few of these left. Had eveything one needs, and had its own character. Liked it a lot.

    Easy to get everywhere by metro, one of the male staff is very professional and helpful, especially on the day we arrived, the room is comfortable, and the building is located somewhere that close to places to see (3 mins walk to the Depot art museum) , by metro and tram can get you to anywhere you want easily.

    Room heat was too warm for us. It’s winter, but we prefer to sleep colder.

    Convenient location, well appointed room, friendly and helpful staff. Balcony in room and lobby terrace both appealing for warmer seasons.

    Accomodation is old which comes with challenges esp. in relation to noise. You can practically hear eveyrthing from the corridors incl. the noise that doors make when left open. prices could be lower.

    Nice family run hotel near the center of Rotterdam. Staff is very polite and helpful. Rooms are quite nice as well and clean. Coffee/tea is provided in the rooms which is much appreciated. The double room on first floor was quite comfy with nice views in the garden.

    Getting to parking is very stressful when you have a bigger car as you need to pass via very narrow tunnel / gate and you need to fold the mirrors. I supose it may be standard parking in Rotterdam? Please have a look at pictures. The rooms are not sound-proof so you can hear the noises from the corridor / reception and the restaurant
