Victor was very friendly and helped me navigate around. The hotel room was clean and modern with a comfy bed. Breakfast had many options and got me ready for the day.
The air conditioning system made a constant beeping noise at night, it disturbed my sleep.

the breakfast options were adequate, i guess. it was there, at least.
the room was supposedly cleaned daily, but i found crumbs on the floor. also, the hairdryer barely worked. it just sputtered warm air, so i looked like a drowned rat most of the time. it was not exactly the look i was going for.

easy accessconvenient locationflawless check-infriendly staff
The location is convenient with the tram stop just around the corner. This provides easy access to the central area. The staff were really friendly, Sergio in particular. The check-in and check-out processes were flawless. I found the Vrije University campus easily accessible via tram.
I found no proper facilities for decent food such as a restaurant.
