Heerlijk verblijf. Iets verder van het toeristische deel van Terschelling, lekker rustig en goed bereikbaar met de bus. Mooie fietsroutes in de buurt en meer dan voldoende fietsen te huur. Lekker eten en heel vriendelijk personeel.

Prima ruim hotel.

Prachtig hotel, goed gelegen in midden van het eiland. Mooie ruime kamers, met 2 relax stoelen. Gezellig en comfortabel, zelfs een balkon. Ontbijt goed, maar wel elke dag hetzelfde. Uitstekende fietsen te huur.

prima kamer en service, zeker in deze corona tijd. Enige opmerking is dat de kraan in de badkamer met een bewegingssensor uitgerust was. Dit is voor normaal gebruik absoluut onpractisch.

Heel prettig hotel met goede atmosfeer, rustig gelegen. Aardig personeel, mooie kamers. Alleen bedden, beddengoed en handdoeken niet van heel goede kwaliteit. jammer. Maar al met al zeker een aan te raden hotel.
