I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were pretty amazing, some with a small terrace, but others felt like a cellar with a window on the stairs, which was a bit bleak. The furniture was sparse, although the bed was decent. The service was top-notch, with warm welcomes and caring staff. The location was convenient, close to amenities but not right in the center. The dining was simple and quick but lacked variety. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.

The location was convenient, a little out of the center but close to amenities. Not exactly in the heart of Utrecht, but still quite close to everything you may need.

The dining was simple, quick, and filling, but lacked variety. The breakfast was basic, just bread, cheese, ham, and an egg for €12.50.

The location was great, surrounded by local restaurants and shops, although some rooms had issues with shower doors.
