Reviews
In the room we could not charge our mobile phones as there was no USB port and the our plugs were were not compatible to Dutch ones. I went to reception to borrow one and the rude duty manager told me to buy one for €15 or rent a portable power bank for €3 from a vending machine. I went to rent from the machine and the process was confusing. When asked for help, the duty manager was rude and repeatedly mentioned that he is busy and told me to follow the instructions (which were confusing).
The overall feeling was unwelcoming and the attitude of the staff can and should definitely improve.
I stayed for 3 nights with a total of 4 people in a family room. The room was clearly designed for only 3 people, but the hotel forced in an extra bed, making the space extremely small, cramped, and uncomfortable for four people, with no proper ventilation.
The front desk staff were very unfriendly, and the room facilities were incomplete, with bathroom fixtures in very poor condition. When we entered the room, we found that the toilet flush, sink, and shower were cracked. We immediately complained, and although staff came to check, instead of offering a better room, they simply said, “it is still usable.”
Additionally, upon check-in, the soap in the bathroom was almost empty (only about 5% left). We had to go downstairs ourselves to request more, as no one answered the room phone despite multiple attempts. When we asked for tissue, we were told to take napkins from the hotel’s cafe/bar ourselves.
The service was extremely poor and far below expectations. It certainly does not live up to the name “Best Western Hotel”, it is absolutely NOT BEST. I strongly do not recommend this hotel and will never stay here again.
