Cleanliness is generally fine, but multiple reviews mention bathroom issues such as mold, odors, or missed housekeeping.

Had a comfy bed, clean and well-featured bathroom, friendly staff, and good city center location with much to do and many transport links. The outwards-facing windows were at the top-and-bottom of the wall, and a little small, so would've liked a little more natural light in the room during the day. During our stay, the hotel was being refurbished so there was construction noise throughout the day. Facilities being constructed looked nice though. Air conditioning in the room seemed hard-coded to turn off at 01:00am, which often meant waking up in the heat to turn it back on.

The reception on arrival was great and the service was excellent - by offering a drink and explain how the hotel operates. The hall (incl. breakfast room) has a home-like feel and has boardgames displayed. You can also play pool in the hall whilst having a drink. Also, you get two access cards to the room which is spacey, modern and clean. No noise was heard during our stay.

Solche Informationen sollte man fairerweise vorab erhalten. Zimmer wirklich klein und dadurch noch erdrückender.

Vaktmästaren kom och bytte batteri till värdeboxen omgående. Man erbjöd sig att hjälpa till med att bära bagage. Lite tråkigt med källarplan men å andra sidan var det tyst. Personalen gav oss ett bra pris för en natt till. Tyvärr ingen parkering för av- och pålastning.

This was a surprisingly good hotel. Ample water pressure and plenty of hot water for the shower, modern fixtures, etc. The service staff were very good/attentive, excellent English. Convenient location near the cathedral and the University hangouts. There is a big parking lot nearby, but I didn't have a car; the hotel is convenient (10 minute walk) from the train station. Perhaps it isn't this rowdy all the time, but I was there during Euro Cup (and the Netherlands made it to the semis) so there was a lot of late-night noise from the pub patios nearby, up to 3am both nights. It didn't bother me (I'm a sound sleeper) but maybe something to consider if you are in Holland during a major athletic event!

The best hotel buffet breakfast we have ever had. My only request would be to put a sheet on the bed under the duvet. The duvet was extremely warm and in summer we found it too warm. Otherwise no complaints whatsoever. Would definitely recommend staying here.

I've stayed here several times before but it's standards have dropped. As an expedia VIP member I did not receive my usual welcome, nor was I given a room upgrade, nor given the free drinks advertized during my stay. The staff are friendly enough, my room was clean but small, the hotel has upgraded the checkin area, but singularly the breakfast service has dropped precipitously. They ran out of juice, cheese and meat on two of my days ( I chose not to eat on the third). I was hounded by different staff for my room number. If they paid half the attention to replenishing breakfast items as they do patrolling guests they would not have these problems. This is not rocket science it is a management issue. I will choose another hotel on my next visit.
