Willem

Disliked: Staff & service
Hier blijkt weer het grote verschil tussen de prijs en kwaliteit. Kleine kamer (zonder airco) een badkamer zonder afzuiging Ontbijt kost 15 euro ppmaar is hooguit 7,50 waard. Bij receptie spreekt men geen engels. Dus al met al een hotel wat wel potentie herft maar daar iets mee moet doen. Dit kan beter
