Enjoyed our stay here
Hotel was lovely. Restaurant and bars were very nice and had a good vibe. Rooms were nice and clean. Dog was allowed everywhere so could sit in restaurant at dinner etc. would return if staying in Rotterdam. Bus stop very close to hotel, so good transport links to the centre.

Comfortable hotel, stayed multiple times, mixed overall, as service can be so so and sometimes room is run down. This time everything was a good standard although front desk staff are still not the friendliest, but helpful if needed.

My room overlooked the hotel entrance and people ie smokers would congregate outside at 2.00am and talk loudly. Really annoying and this would happen again at 6.00am

Let down by poor room
Staff were nice enough and ok hotel. But the room was not good; a so called double bed was two twins together and it only ever wanted to seperate in the middle. The aircon made a very subtle noise all night, making it hard to sleep, the room we had did not black out either, with the windows (which you couldn’t open to get air in) looking down into the foyer, so constant light all night. All of which made it hard to sleep.

Extremely disappointing stay
Stale hotel - comfortable beds and good blackout curtains but light comes in through a large gap in the bedroom door. Kettle and hairdryer in room didn’t work, they had no room available for me at check-in time, common parts on my floor (4) were filthy. Battery was low on my door lock so awkward to get into the room. Staff were indifferent to issues. Room is really badly appointed with big sections unlit. It’s not even handy for Rotterdam. I would absolutely not recommend.

Ok value for money, nice staff, but a bit rundown
Easy check in and out, staff helpful and friendly. Place is not as clean as it was when I visited 6 months ago and the room I had was a bit run down. Breakfast is not a bad selection, but overpriced as it’s quite poor quality. Overall the hotel is quite good value for money though and well located near the airport. Not well located if you need to be near the centre, but the local bus service is not bad.

4/10 Fair

The hotel was okay- reception staff were polite and helpful, the room was quiet and bed was comfy. However we ate in the restaurant and it’s the worst service I have ever experienced. It took 10 minutes to even be acknowledged, every waiter walked straight past us. It took us ages to get the waiters attention to order as well. We were repeatedly ignored. There were plenty of staff and they were not full. As it was the only option to eat in the hotel we felt we had no choice- would not recommend the restaurant.
