10/10 Excellent
"An excellent hotel. The bedroom was large and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was excellent with a very good choice of food. The location was a little way outside the centre of Sneek and without a car it may be difficult to access the City of Sneek. I would recommend this hotel."

"Perhaps I missed it in the listing but this lodging does not provide full serivces meaning we had to go to the store and buy our own toliet paper. Of course you can't buy less than a 4 pack and for a 4 night stay we only needed one extra roll leaving 3 full rolls behind that I am sure the property will use for other guests but make them buy more when they need more than one roll for their stay. To me this is a basic necessity that should be provided."
