Rundown and disgusting
I stayed at The Social Hub for one night and it was a nightmare from beginning to end and ruined my stay in Groningen. The first room was beat-up with stains all over the wall, the carpet was shabby and the furniture had dents everywhere. But the worst thing was how dirty everything in this room was. All the surfaces were dusty and/or full of fingerprints and/or full of stains, the sink in the kitchen was covered in limescale. The worst was the bathroom – limescale and all kinds of other dirt in- and outside of the shower. Below the toilet there was a big blob of a white substance, which I hope was body cream. Naturally I asked for a different room. The new room was not much better, which made me realize that the lack of cleanliness is a bigger, structural problem at this ‘hotel’. Again, there were thick patches of limescale in the bathroom; dust, fingerprints and splashes of dried liquids everywhere in the room – on the desk, the curtains, the TV screen, etc. Other issues: - The mattress was old, sagging and was also slanted to one side - which means: no sleep - The temperature control in the room was either broken or disabled - There was no hairdryer in the bathroom, even though it was listed in the room amenities All of this makes me wonder – who is in charge of this place? These are not minor issues - the dirt, the worn-out mattresses, the lack of maintenance. Is this a conscious decision by The Social Hub to not care about guests' experiences and basic needs?

The hotel was full of college students that live there full time. This didn’t bother me, but it did add a level of noise in the common areas. The restaurant was a nice place to grab a meal.

Bad AC - and they knew it. The Social Hub is a hopping place. The entree looks very ‘active’ and all the different places where you can sit and work or meet are great. The check-in was very pleasant and quick. The elevator was very slow. I was surprised there were not more elevators for the amount of people and rooms. There were stairs that I did take coming down from the 4th floor but that was not trivial, there was a certain route to be followed. The room was ok. I went to the room pretty late (I came from visiting at the hospital) and was tired and turned the lights and ac on with the room key in the slot. After an hour of mediocre sleep I woke up bathing in sweat. The room was really warm. The lowest the AC could be set to was 18C - in my recollection that should be colder but I was extremely tired. I tried opening the window for cooler air but that only worked if I kept the curtains open. The bright lights shining into my room were not helping my sleep either. By 2am I decided that the AC was not working correctly, the window and curtains open was not working either but what could be done in the night. I am in my pjs and so tired. I muddle through but it was not very pleasant. The next morning I walk by the reception to tell them about the AC and the response was: “Oh I am sorry, yes we knew the AC’s were a bit finicky but thought we had it fixed” So sorry, have a nice day. Do I want to stay here again? Not really.

This was a great hotel with a hub vibe. The rooms were clean and quiet, with sufficient room. The only let down is that the shower leaks into the main bathroom, flooding the bathroom floor. The social areas are great, and nice to sit downstairs to relax outside of the room. The gym was an added bonus.
