One of our favorite hotels. It has the friendliness of a hostel, but was designed like a hotel. The decor alone is worth the visit.

A wonderful place with amazing staff. I was already expecting a lot of noise in the inner yard and it was ok except that they started moving metal furniture and stuff outdoors etc. after 1am making extra noise which was completely unnecessary. I do not mind loud people outside but this was just not needed. Overall I enjoyed my stay a lot in this lovely hotel.

A interesting place. Funky.
But, our room had no wash basin. The hallway was also very noisy, the oitside was noisy too.
Our mattresses were also not good enough.

Silverware in the room (1 bedroom apartment) was not clean, with grease from previous meals visible on most of it. Otherwise very good, great location, and nice room.

A terrible noise from several hundred young people partying two meter from our window, music hammering until two in the night and noise from the clean up until four in the morning. Smoke from sigaretts and mariuana from people one meter from the window in the room. It is a scandal that we have to pay 130 Euro for this nightmare.

We really liked the location and the staff were friendly and helpful. But we had three issues. First, the room was prepaid via Hotels.com however this did not register on the Guest House check in system. After showing the receipt, I was told not to worry, but at check out the file was not updated. It was really uncomfortable having to defend this again since we need to rush to make our train!
But this was a minor nuisance in light of two other issues. First, our room faced a courtyard and drunken folks were still laughing it up loudly at 3am! We leaned out the window and asked the to quiet down in English and Dutch but they ignored us.
Second, the heating was not easily adjusted and the room was way too warm. Most rooms therefore had their windows open. Bad for noise and especially bad for the climate. These were disappointments which we hope the Guest House will work on in the future.
