amazing find close to everything
electronic keys canal view museum area
i enjoyed the electronic entry keys a lot it felt very modern. my room overlooked the canal which was a great view to wake up to every morning. i found a great coffee spot close by plus some really nice restaurants. the location near the museums area made it easy to walk around.
the ground floor was pretty noisy i could hear everyone coming in and out. it was like there wasn't a wall between the room and the hallway. i also heard the vending machine often since it was right outside my door.
Location

the hotel sits on a quiet street near the canal a central location gives it easy access. i found getting to any tourist spot really easy plus it was simple to reach the tram or metro stations.
Dining
10/10
i was so happy to have access to free tea and coffee 24 hours a day it was super convenient. there were appliances available if i wanted to prepare a small meal. a wonderful indoor and outdoor space made the dining area especially inviting.

An Excellent Boutique Experience
clean room free coffee
The hotel located near the center included metro and tram stations just close by. I had a view of the canal from a very clean room. The staff showed themself very helpful and the free coffee machine added a nice touch. The back garden was pretty.
The bed felt uncomfortable, the mattress measured about 10 centimetres thick. It felt noisy during the night because I could hear the main door slamming and toilets flushing from nearby rooms. I did not get a good night's sleep.

The boutique hotel includes a terrace plus a wonderful outdoor area. This space equips itself with various equipment, so guests are able to have a few meals. A hot drinks machine contains soup and remains available all day at no cost.

The room provided comfort and felt cute thanks to its excellent bedding and mattress. Decoration plus details included taste. Water provided itself in each room each day. The room was modernized and fully furnished.

loved it!

I loved the clean, stylish room! my friend and i each booked a double room. coffee was freely available in a lounge! it had everything needed to make your own breakfast. This added a chilled vibe to our stay.
The room was far too hot! i found a thermostat but nothing changed. i was told there was no aircon in the rooms. Three nights of no sleep followed!
