Great value for the money. Excellent location . 10 -15 minute walk to everything. Room size was adequate for a couple. Wifi was EXCELLENT and nice hot showers. Will definitely stay again. Staff very nice.
Basic, affordable rooms a short walk from the old city. Pleasant staff, always quick to respond
Typical narrow/steep Dutch stairs to rooms need to navigated with care
Utrecht is expensive to stay, also For one night maybe it s better to sleep farer and come For a one-day visit ! The Place is really too expensive For what it offers i think ! The women is really kind, fast and simple in the advices, but i think the price is really too Much For a room like that ! Maybe a romantic trip is not the appropriate set to stay, even if with some Friends with which share the Price could be different!

Zum Übernachten reicht es.
Leider war die Toilette nicht sauber als ich ins Zimmer gekommen bin.
Klimaanlage war top.
Die Zimmer sind sehr hell hörig.
Achtung: Parkplätze gibt es nur auf der Straße mit Parkgebühren. Von 9 bis 21 Uhr über 5 € die Stunde. Kann man im Parkkonzept von Uetrecht nachlesen

Die Treppen sind so eng und steil gut dass wir kein Koffer mit hatten.
Es ist sehr hell hörig
Chambre d’hôtel pas du tout adaptée à un séjour en famille.
Le seul point positif est la gentillesse du mr qui nous a accueilli.
On rentre dans l’hôtel par les toilettes de la cafétéria du rdc, puis un couloir et 2 escaliers tellement d’exigus et raides qu’il a été difficile de les monter avec des enfants en bas âge.
La chambre avait un sauna et un jacuzzi donnant directement dans la chambre. Pas de tapis de bains juste une bouche d’évacuation dans le sol quand on sort du jacuzzi ce qui n’est pas pratique surtout avec des enfants et un sol en caoutchouc en très mauvais état et très glissant. Les 4 serviettes de toilettes étaient tachées. Il n’y a pas de lampes de chevets ni bouilloire. On a retrouvés des perces oreilles et cafards dans la chambre. Très mauvaise expérience qui ne correspond pas à un ***
Pire séjour en nuit d’hôtel que j’ai vécu avec ma famille.

La chambre avait un sauna et un jacuzzi en plein milieu?! Aucune intimité pour se doucher car le jacuzzi est au milieu des lits. Pas de tapis de bains juste une bouche d’évacuation dans le sol. Et le sol n’est parlons pas : du caoutchouc?! Les serviettes de toilettes étaient toutes tachées on on a retrouvés des perces oreilles et cafards dans la chambre. Bref hôtel à fuir qui ne correspond pas à un ***

Le check out est trop tôt, 10h. Ce n'est pas normal.
This was the smallest room I've ever stayed at a hotel. Unfortunately since we had just travelled from a different continent and were looking for a temporary stay while we look for an apartment had a lot of luggage.
With 1 double bed and 1 so-called twin and with 3 people in the room it was like canned sardines. Some other rooms looked slightly bigger but for some reason we ended up with the tiniest. Luckily it was ground floor so I was spared the weight lifting.
Last 2 nights the HVAC system did not work (had to manually reduce the mechanical heater to cool the room down) No microwave in the room and staff would not replenish the coffee/sugar etc without being asked. Never got extra pillow/comforter either even after asking.
I have lived in all sorts of hotels/motels and in a few countries as well but this was literally the most claustrophobic experience of my life. For 100+ EUR per day I do expect a slightly bigger room. This is not central London or Tokyo
