We hadden misschien wat pech met de kamer. Tapijt wat oprolde waardoor je er in de nacht over valt, in bed lig je in een kuil, afvoer verstopt l, douches die lekken en thermostaatkraan die niet echt werkt en tv uit het jaar 0. Verder waren we prima tevreden. Personeel heel vriendelijk. Ontbijt meer dan redelijk. Zwembad heeft onze zoon enorm van genoten en was netjes en schoon. ##### N Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zahra Dec 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A must when visiting Netherlands Always return to the same hotel when staying in Netherlands. Such a beautiful location away from noise. Hotel is clean and staff are always attentive and friendly! A room with a balcony is beautiful, especially in warm weather. Hotels pool is clean and open until late which is great!

Het enige wat ons tegenviel was de airco. De 18graden die hij aangaf is het nooit geweest naar ons gevoel. Het was ons te warm. Dat heeft ons verblijf in de ruime kamer echter niet ontsiert. Heerlijk toeven daar! ##### Pier Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ali Sep 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is a beautiful hotel and it was .y second time that i booked this property as i liked it very much last time.

The bedroom was nice and the bed was comfortable. There was no water in the bedroom or biscuits on the tea and coffee selection tray. I stayed for two nights and nothing was replenished on the tea tray. I’m sure if I had asked I could’ve had extra things. The size of the bedroom and bathroom was huge and the bath was lovely. ##### Kate Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Konstantinos Apr 20, 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean rooms Quite place ##### Konstantinos Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Feb 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent hotel set in the Dutch countryside Modern clean friendly hotel with great facilities like a decent sized pool, gym and sauna.
