    A nice comfortable hotel that makes a good base for exploring Rotterdam

    Very little to complain about. The building next door was under renovation so the entrance to the hotel is a little hidden but no great problem. Stairs are very steep, so probably not ideal for those with limited mobility but there is a lift.

    A very nice little hotel a short distance from the city centre and handy for tram (Line 4) or Metro (Dijkzigt). I had a very comfortable single room. Breakfast was very good. There's a number of nice bars at the end of the road, and an ice-cream shop that opens late. A good base for exploring Rotterdam by tram, metro or foot.

    On one night we could hear footsteps / noise from the room above.

    The breakfast offered an excellent choice of fresh hot and cold dishes. First class Our room was beautifully decorated, very clean, very comfortable bed and a lovely balcony overlooking the treed avenue.

    No gym. Steep stairs, though a lift also available. A single bed in a single room (so nothing to complain really).

    A small hotel in an old building, kind of family-run atmosphere, more personality than the sterile major hotel chains. A good breakfast. Asked for a quiet room and got one, not much noise from the outside of the corridor. A coffee machine and a fridge in the room. Good location for visiting the Erasmus MC, also plenty of restaurants nearby.

    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

    Delightful, well-run boutique hotel in a handy location

    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.
