By far the oldest and most unkept hotel I had to stay in during my time in NL. Only hotel I refused to shower in as it was just well, “neglected”. Very old and unkept. Seemed nobody has used that room in ages. Bathroom was filthy, shower had black marks all around the edges. Tiles had water/ soap marks all over it. Just an unkept and dirty room that’s all. Only place I refused to shower.

We hadden een concert in Rotterdam en de volgende dag gingen we naar Amersfoort. De schildkamp lag mooi halverwege de route. Ik was mijn pijnmedicatie vergeten. Na het concert had ik overal pijn. In het hotel heb ik een heerlijke douche genomen en ben daarna als een blok in slaap gevallen. Echt een heerlijk bed en goeie douche. De volgende dag hadden we ook nog een ontbijt. Echt lekkere opties en heerlijk vers.

Nette prijs-kwaliteit maar gedateerd..

Het hotel heeft iets weg van een sporthal met kamers voor een congres. Kamers zijn netjes maar gedateerd, wat ik niet begrijp is de badkamer. Die is royaal met in de hoek een 3hoek doesje waarin je amper kan bewegen.
