    Very well kept but creaky and old building, tiny stairs and low ceilings. To be expected in Haarlem, but a little annoying anyway.

    Extremely friendly and helpful staff, surprisingly nice rooms. Tastefully and creatively decorated. Perfect location. Classy and tasty, but still affordable restaurant downstairs.

    Great little hotel! The room was very comfortable and well designed! The location is a dream, the public parking garage is only 3 minutes away, the hotel is located directly in the beautiful town center. The staff is super friendly and always there for you. Very good, please keep it up!

    It's more "rooms above a restaurant" than a full service hotel which suited us but may not suit everyone. It meant that there was no staff present overnight. The access to the rooms is via a very steep stairs which again was fine for us but may be difficult for older people and young children. The decor and lighting was very dark which again may be difficult for some people. The lighting and mirror arrangement in the bedroom and bathroom made it difficult to apply make-up and check it (I know this is a very niche complaint but relevant if going to a wedding!)

    Superb central location next to the heart of Haarlem. The restaurant on the ground floor was great for breakfast, coffees and lunch and was filled with locals as well as visitors. The staff were very warm and helpful. Our room was very comfortable and well decorated. Despite central location and downstairs restaurant, it was very quiet at night.

    It feels more of a restaurant with rooms than a hotel with a restaurant. Whilst the room had everything we needed, the bathroom was very small and dark and the stairs were very challenging with luggage.

    The location is great, the staff is very nice and the building is full of character. It is very easy to park at the nearby car park.

    We were very well looked after by the team, the rooms are very thoughtfully furnished and offer you everything you might need during your stay. The location is great if you wish to visit the important sights in Haarlem, the train station is also quite nearby, which makes travelling to "Frenchie" a breeze! Extra points for the restaurant, which offers great options for breakfast and dinner.

    The long staircase to get up to the rooms and the hallways were rather dark.

    It was very clean and the notes and treats each day were lovely. The adjoining restaurant was very good. The staff members were all pleasant and helpful.

    Found the price of breakfast very steep, so we used Jumbo store. Recommend that you raise the lodging price and lower breakfast to €15 - we would have used it then. Maybe the large tub should be antique & smaller to free up storage space for clothing.

    French atmosphere was nice touch, created special ambiance. Showering fasciitis were up to date and standard. Steep stairs are uncomfortable for luggage transport, although Jitse got them up for us. Kitchen is highly rated! Location is fantastic : close to market, St. Bravo, cultural buildings, Frans Hals Museum - worth a visit! - and ample shops. Highly recommended, especially for the romantic at heart. Staff is terrific!

    Nothing everything was Great!

    The team was professional, courteous and kind. My room was clean and tidy daily which added to the comfort. The location description was accurate noting about 7 min walk to the center of Haarlem which was perfect! I got to see and explore so much more of the city. Sadly I was there for work and never got to eat at the restaurant but it was always full of laughter and smiles. Overall, cozy and quaint and would highly recommend.

    This is certainly not a criticism but a housecoat and slippers would be very welcome.

    The room was very comfortable and stylish. The products were very good. I liked that there was lotion and conditioner as well as a hair diffuser as you don't often get this at hotels. The restaurant was exceptional.

    It feels high end, and it was nice to hang out in the room a bit. We wished there were bathrobes, but that's only minor.

    What an amazing vibe. The perfect combination between a monumental structure and an up to date interior. The staff was extremely friendly, which made the visit even better!

    Possibly could have a bit more shelves hooks in the top As no wardrobe really due to the shape of room I suppose that’s difficult.

    It wasn’t a problem for us, but the steep stairs to get to the rooms might be difficult for some.

    The place was very inviting and the staff very friendly. The fact that there are only 5 rooms made our experience seem more exclusive, we were received with a welcoming personal written note. The room had a very unique style, combining the old building with modern decorations. They had a coffee machine and kettle to use freely in the room, and also a minifridge.
