    Low water pressure, so the shower wasn’t great. Air conditioning worked only sometimes to cool.

    Very clean, good location, and helpful staff.

    Breakfast was rather disappointing. Why not provide unlimited tea and coffee? Room was nice but nothing special given the price charged.

    The supper in the restaurant was excellent. Although we found the wine choice very limited if you wanted to spend under €50 a bottle.

    I had a apartment with balcony . It was winter but the balcony is very small . The (Hästens)beds were too soft for me and a little bit too big for the bedroom the sitting room and kitchen was roomy. Not a big kitchen but ok for making breakfast and easy meal. No oven but microwave. Fridge had no freezer. Overall a nice apartment and the hotel is in the middle of the dorpstraat . Shops are very close .

    A comfortable stay in the main street on the island

    I personally found the design of the hotel rooms quite outdated (it doesnt give me a very luxurious feel) and the rooms are really small (there is almost no space for suitcases, its basically a bed that you can just walk around). While we were staying there, there was a heatwave in the Netherlands, and as the hotel doesnt have AC, it was quite difficult to sleep in the room. They do offer small ventilators to make the situation a bit more bearable. In addition, the hotel is quite noisy - from outside there are sounds from the bar / garden below (not too bad, it all stopped before 10pm), as well as the hallway (the walls are really thin, so every time a neighbor locks his/her door, you can clearly hear it). We didnt have any issues with this, but something to call out if you are a light sleeper or sensitive to it.

    The location of the hotel is great - its right in the main street of the village, and close to all the restaurants and the port/ferry and bus stop. The hotel has a great restaurant and terrace to enjoy a drink while people-watching. Beds are very comfortable.

    The downstairs bathroom is in need of a proper check-up/renovation. Both showers and the tap were leaking. One properly functioning shower would have been preferred instead of two broken ones. The upstairs bathroom is not made for showering; the shower hose is too short and there is no curtain resulting in the entire bathroom floor getting soaked even when showering sitting down. The door of the bedroom with the bathroom upstairs did not also shut close, leaving no privacy for using the bathroom since there is no door between the bedroom and bathroom. The suite is spacious but did not live up to what you could expect from the price/hotel standard. For the price, you should be able to expect functioning bathrooms and doors. The cleaning was also not very thorough/up to standard, there were obvious nailpolish stains in the bathtub upon arrival. On the second day, we got fresh towels but the beds were not made and the bathroom floor was still soaked. When we mentioned the issues (leaking showers, door that did not close) at the hotel reception upon check-out, no discout or compensation was offered. We were only told we should have informed them about the issues earlier so that they could have fixed them right away, which is ridiculous considering that we only stayed for two nights and of course did not want the bathroom to be renovated in the one day we were there (the showers would have needed to be replaced). Considering the price of the room, some kind of compensation for the broken facilities would have been appropriate.

    Good location, spacious suite with two separate bedrooms and a cosy living room area suitable for a family of 4 adults (library suite).

    Staff on the front desk were not interested in their guests. We were quite appalled 😦 the bedroom was so small as the double bed filled the whole room. As 70+ guests we had to climb over the bed to reach the other side.

    The room we got was large but the ceiling far too low. Wasn’t anywhere I could stand up straight. The shower must have been max 190cm high ceiling couldn’t stand in it straight and had to basically sit down to do my hair. For €300 a night you expect to have a proper shower as bare minimum

    Nice location to the harbor and on the main drag

    Great central location, very friendly staff. It was very quiet when we stayed so breakfast was specially prepared for us which was lovely. Dinner in the restaurant was superb. And the hotel is very dog friendly, first time that any accommodation I stayed in provided a proper dog bed.
