Dorint Hotel Düren
Appartementen Valkenburg
This was a dump. There were holes in doors and the carpet was gross. The furniture was salvaged. The towels should have been used for cleaning. I put a chair in front the door and left a light on because there’s no additional lock. I would never recommend this space to someone.
