We were looking for a hotel to stay at regularly due to our kids living in Amersfoort, while we live abroad. But during our stay on Dec 14th, at 8:30 a maintenance person came barging into the room while we were sleeping late (jet-lag) saying that he had a report of an overflowing shower. False alarm..... Then 30 minutes later the cleaning lady knocked and immediately walked in to see if we had already left, and woke us up again. She then proceeded to have a discussion for about 10 minutes with a colleague outside our door, and we found out that the sound insulation was not good as we could follow the entire discussion. Right before checking out she again walked into the room and opened the door so forcefully that my wife who was about to open the door got her finger smashed between the room door and the bathroom door, causing a large bruise and a fingernail that will likely fall off soon. We heard that the cleaning staff knocked on every room door. This seems to be their method to see which rooms they could clean. I think Best Western in The Netherlands has not yet figured out that the front desk should be advising the cleaning staff about which rooms have been checked out, but rather they leave it up to the cleaning folks to ask the guests themselves if they are still in the room......
One more thing: almost all the parking spots in front of the hotel entrance say "Reserved for Trainers".
