Small and correct hotel. 4 stars but related to services offered, not to the size of the rooms. People are very kind and they deserve this 4 stars… a good hotel fort a short vacation . don’t bring more than a cabin suitcase.
Koffie/thee voorziening op de kamer zou een toegevoegde waarde zijn op de overigens zeer mooie kamer.
In de reservering stond een Bluetooth speaker vermeld, helaas niet gevonden.
Goede accommodatie op een hele goede locatie.
Goed verzorgd ontbijt met ruime keuze.
Kamers netjes
Wij hadden gezocht op hotel met parkeren en ook parkeren bijgeboekt, Bij aankomst kregen we te horen dat we geen parkeerplaats hadden en er maar 7 parkeerplaatsen beschikbaar waren. Helaas 45 min rond gereden voor een parkeerplek. Dat was voor ons dus een groot min punt
Super hotel en heerlijk ontbijt. Personeel aan de receptie balie bij inchecken onvriendelijk en bij uitcheclen iemand anders en een man nog onvriendelijker wat jammer is.
Zowel de hotelkamer als het restaurant was prima orde.

Decevant , car jamais su regarder la tele, rtbf ou chaines francaises en brouillees, la porte en verre de la salle de bain qui racle le sol et difficile de l ouvrir avec un bruit pas possible , et la cerise sur le gateau chambre 510 qui laisse un chien dans la chambre et qui aboie des heures . Vraiment decue alors que d habitude nous n avions pas a nous plaindre . J attendais un geste commercial mais bon .
Accueil très sympathique et services offerts dans les conditions Covid excellents!
Repas du soir délicieux, petit-déjeuner ultra copieux. À 2 pas de la mer, rooftop bien orienté d’où on peut commander une boisson et vélos à disposition, voilà le cocktail parfait pour un séjour parfait!
Het hotel is goed gelegen! Vlakbij het strand.
Door de covid liep het ontbijt wat fout maar de mensen deden echt hun best.
Het is niet simpel om zo te werken.
De kamers super clean, bravo!
De receptie heel vriendelijk!
Tres bon ptit dejeuner , climatisation ds les chambres devrait être obligatoire ! Car fenêtres ouvertes , le bruit et les mouettes. Autrement tres Bien

Goed gelegen hotel maar kamer mag iets meer zijn
Goed gelegen hotel met vernieuwde publieke ruimtes. De kamers mogen echter iets meer zijn. Er was geen water en geen koffie-zet beschikbaar en de mini-bar was leeg. Dat hoeft niet gratis maar het aanbod zou er toch moeten zijn. Bij het ontbijt, een uur voor einde, werd er ook niets meer aangevuld. Ok dus, maar zeker geen topper.

Familjeägt vid stranden
Jättebra frukost och perfekt läge nära stranden, men personalen skällde ut både min man ( som inte förstod deras intrikata system för att låna en cykel) och en annan gäst (oklart varför).
A nice place to stay. I was there one night for bussiness purpose. A lot of resturants and Bar`s in the erea.
One big problem; there was no air condition in the room, and it was really hot ther when I was there.
