the modern room was acceptable.
The air conditioning was very loud and barely cooled the room. i asked reception to reheat some food but they refused. I felt that was unacceptable given the price of the hotel. also, the cleanliness was mediocre, i found stains on the sheets and sticky floors.

an adequate stay

convenient locationclean roompricey breakfastdisruptive staff
the location is convenient to public transportation. a tram stop sits directly outside the hotel (easy access to other parts of the city). the room offered a modern and clean space.
the breakfast was pricey at €23. i noticed staff seemed rushed to clear tables prior to the end of breakfast (it was a bit disruptive).

Fantastic Waterfront Stay

convenient locationcoffee machineluggage storageeasy exploration
The location near the river is WONDERFUL. My room had a coffee machine which was very helpful. The staff stored my luggage after I checked out. I used the trams, located close by, to explore the city with ease.
The bathroom door offered little privacy due to open sides, noise travelled easily.

fine vieweasy accesshelpful staffgood experience
I found a fine view of the erasmus bridge. the hotel has easy access to water transport. the water bus and tram stops are just across the street. the location provided straightforward access to the markthal and cube houses. the staff were friendly and helpful. They enhanced my stay.
i noticed some slight noise from outside at night. this was due to the bridge traffic, however, it did not ruin the overall good experience.

Just Okay Stay

small bathroomcramped space
The bathroom was far too small. It was genuinely hard to sit on the toilet because of how little room there was. The placement of the toilet paper holder made it worse. The space next to the bed felt too cramped. Only about 30 cm between the bed and the wall made getting in bed harder than it needed be.
