10/10 Excellent
"Loved Bruges and this hotel. Everything is decorated in bicycle style, you can rent regular or e bikes and cycle around like the locals. Short drive/walk to the city centre. Restaurant was excellent, we had a mature woman server and she was a delight. Food and service were great. Wish they had some kind of vending machine for late night drink/snack as shopping options are not that close. Would definitely recommend and/or stay again. Everything in Bruges was lovely, including this hotel. Room was also decorated in bicycle design and industrial style. Best part was an actual king bed, not those two singles put together. Loved the bed."
