    Breakfast quite expensive. Up by 3.5€ pp since our last visit. The location is excellent in the centre of Haarlem. The staff could not have been more helpful. The rooms are pretty basic but have everything you need for a short break.

    The bar area was very small and no seperate area for hotel guests. It was very busy on Friday and Saturday night due to the christmas market.

    friendly helpful staff, food excellent, with a good choice especially at breakfast. Location in town centre about a 15 minutes walk from the train station.

    The barman was rude when we came back to the hotel after our night out. Maybe hospitality is not for him.

    The reception staff were great. The room was nice. Bed was comfortable and shower had good power.

    The noise from outside was very disturbing. The noise from the main street was also quite loud both at around midnight with people outside and then in the early morning with lorries and facilities moving around.

    The hotel is in a very central location and great for meeting people in the centre of Haarlem. The rooms are basic and looking a little tired and warn. The staff are always welcoming and very helpful. The restaurant is a great little place to sit especially for breakfast.

    The room was cold when entering. The noise from people outside made it difficult to get to sleep. Breakfast is expensive if you want just a coffee and croissant.

    Location is excellent. The room was comfortable and has a good shower. The bathroom a little old and warn. The room was very cold on entering but warmed up. Breakfast was expensive for what it was.

    A standard hotel -- but you pay the location

    We can hear people taking a shower in other rooms, the noise isolation is not great. The curtains on the window could be improved, there's quite some light in the morning. The shower doesn't have panels all around, so the bathroom floor is all completely wet after one shower. The mirrors in the bathroom are put for very tall people (I am 1.65m tall), it was not convenient. I didn't take the breakfast because 20 euros for a breakfast is just too expensive. Overall, it feels too pricey for the service.

    The hotel is located right in the city center, the location is perfect! The room is a pretty standard hotel room with carperted floor and a renovated bathroom. I really appreciated the luggage storage service. The mattress is good and comfortable.

    On both occasions we did not get the superior (comfort plus) rooms as advertised on Booking. In fact on the second stay we requested a change of rooms. Both were drab and austere with a musty smell. Throughout much of the hotel the carpets are stained and worn. Our room key card became deactivated on most afternoons requiring a return to reception.

    Over a 3 week period we stayed 6 nights on two occasions. Great location in the lovey Haarlem where everything is in easy walking distance within the central zone. Breakfast was good in the nice modern restaurant area. Some, but not all of the reception staff were friendly and helpful.
