    Shared bathrooms are not ideal.

    Basic yet clean and authentic rooms, very friendly host (thanks Maaike) and good location to walk to the city center. Excellent spot for a short trip to Zwolle.

    Be aware you have to climb 2 steep pair of stairs to get to the rooms. Although this wasn't a oroblemfor us, others might struggle.

    We were greeted friendly, and were given a tour of the property. The communal kitchen, toilet and shower room were very clean and had everything there that we needed. The local sweets and biscuits in our room were a nice touch.

    As mentioned, I was lucky but for shared facilities, the cost is quite high.

    Good location, friendly host and clean. I hadn't realised it featured a shared bathroom until a few days before arrival, but thankfully I had it to myself as noone else was staying. This was lucky! Room was big, bed wasn't the most comfortable but the accommodation was quiet and the kitchen was a plus.

    We eventually tracked some sand and dirt into our room from our shoes. It would have been nice to have a dustpan and brush to clean up some of the dirt. We did not bring our own, and we could not find one in the kitchen.

    We liked the clean toilets and the refrigerator. The showers were also nice, hot and clean. The beds and sheets were clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the balcony and used it for breakfast frequently.

    As a cat lover, I personally don't mind at all, but people who are sensitive to that sort of thing could be turned off by the cat smell in the building.

    Great location very near the city center, yet in a fairly quite neighborhood. Extremely friendly and helpful host. No-nonsense in terms of facilities. The balcony was nice bonus given the weather.

    It's never preferable to share a bathroom and shower. Though I had no problems with it.

    The room was cozy and well cared for. The terrace was very nice - and the building historic. The owner is very friendly and tries to accommodate.

    Had hoped for a breakfast - but you have to make it yourself. Shared toilet and shower facilities

    Good central location - walking distance to train station. Probably good value for your money

    Only downside is a small shared toilet but as there's only 3 rooms there should never be a queue!

    Maikke was a lovely host with lots of info about her town. Room was spacious and very clean. It's located about 10 minute walk from the heart of the city so everything is very close. Thanks Maikke.

    I recently travelled for work and stayed at this hotel booked through Booking.com. I must say, the experience was fantastic. The location was convenient, as it wasn't far from both the train station and the office. The room itself was cosy and just the right size for my needs. The staff members were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making my stay even more enjoyable. I encountered a problem during my stay when I realised I had lost my passport. The staff went above and beyond to assist me in resolving the situation. They treated my predicament as if it were their own, showing genuine concern and offering their full support. They even generously offered me to stay for free until I could sort out my documentation. Their kindness and willingness to help during a stressful time were truly remarkable. Based on this exceptional level of service, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone in need of a comfortable and welcoming place to stay. The staff's genuine care and friendliness made a significant difference to my overall experience.

    I booked one room because I came with 2 kids however it wasnt accepted and we had to pay one more room to sleep saparately. The kids were afraid to sleep alone but we didnt have any choice as one room already paid and not refund. Its also my mistake as I didnt check careful. The issue made me not happy was we didnt have breakfast. 8am we woke up and looked for some breakfast but nothing. I tried to check every floor , kitchen but no food, only coffe and tea. Quite disappointed

    I like the location, we could walk from train station. The house is nice, bed room and bathroom are clean. Nice coffee and tea
