Memorabel verblijf in bijzondere kamer met mooi uitzicht.

8.0

Het verblijf in de letter B (met halfpipe en skateboards!) was bijzonder leuk. Vooral met een kind van 10 dat er heel blij van werd. Het uitzicht over het IJ (met mooi weer drink je koffie buiten voor je letter) fantastisch. Locatie ideaal: bij NDSM-werf (waar veel te doen is en veel eetgelegenheden zijn) en direct naast pont naar centrum. Vriendelijke eigenaar.

− Bijzonder dat er bij binnenkost standaard een beveiliger zit, beetje aparte sfeer hing er. De trap (meer een soort ladder) naar de bedden is echt steil en zeker niet voor iedereen geschikt. Wij vonden dat juist wel weer leuk.
