The check-in is fully digital and self check-in, but it’s clear and easy if you follow the instructions and signs.
The hotel is very clean, cozy, and modern.
The surrounding area is magical, right on the lake, and the restaurant has a very nice setting.
The staff were amazing, very helpful and caring.
The only downside is transportation to Amsterdam: the nearest station is about a 12-minute walk from the hotel.
Other than that, everything was very good.
Very cozy, good breakfast, next to the river so it’s a good view, quiet and in general I enjoyed my stay

The room is absolutely perfect for a couple, very good bathroom and double bed but terrible/unusable third sofa bed converted into bed; this accomodation is not suitable for a couple with 1 child; location and access to public transport and shops is also very good; it should not be marketed as an accomodation for couples with children at all, cheers
Wonderful place to stay, great location and view right on the water. 5 min walk to shops/windmill village. Definitely recommend staying here

Excellent location, but very limited dining options within close proximity. Parking is easy and free. People around the hotel were helpful, but there really isn't any staff around.
Nice hotel! I stayed for 5 nights with my family. The surroundings are beautiful. The room was comfortable and the service was good. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff was extremely friendly. We had a car which we parked in the streets around the hotel with no problems.
Loved the location! The windmills were directly across the water. The view was amazing. The room was extremely comfortable and it had a huge bathroom. Breakfast was included and was perfect for the morning. I loved how it came served on a tiered tray. This whole location is a must stay for anyone looking for a Netherlands experience. I will definitely stay here again.
The Breakfast was good and the service great. Pleasant young people at the reception and restaurant.
Our room was on a main crossing, but it was quiet. Lovely small town feel to the place. Super convenient for sightseeing. Safe and free parking was available.
The website listed a room on the canal, but when we got there it stated outside the front door that we would be staying at the annex. Not sure if this is because we booked through hotels.com or they were full at the main boutique hotel. We found the annex and there was free parking right outside! Very nice! Our room was up two straight staircases (nice after winding staircases in other hotels) it led us to an open shared balcony that had 4 doors - one for each room. The room was clean and very comfortable! Slight dust, but otherwise perfect! Close to all the things we wanted to do AND the whole village smells like chocolate!! It’s how I hope heaven smells like. The staff was helpful when we needed them. Everyone in town was very friendly!
the location was close to the windmill village area and to the train station.
The email was received very late on the day of checking in while I didn't have internet on my phone when I arrived late at night plus no one in the reception area..........very disappointed and was panic.

Positives - lovely view of a windmill from our corner room (101), good coffee machine, lovely bathroom, comfortable bed.
Negatives - the online door locks are a nightmare. We arrived tired and couldn't get into our room. We had the digital key and could get in the main door but couldn't get into the room. There was another guest struggling in the entrance area when we arrived. After failing to access our booking on the screen (as we didn't have a reservation code, as we'd booked through Expedia) we had to call for help. We finally managed to get in using the digital key by sliding the key to the right repeatedly in quick succession. Awful system. The screen in the room said there would be someone in 'reception' from 8:00 to 11:00 each day. There was no one around when we left at 9:00. There was a broken lamp in the room and the corridors smelt of mould.
Shame as the view from outside the pancake house was stunning and we would have happily paid extra to have breakfast whilst enjoying that view.

Check in is remote, if you don’t have wifi (service) you won’t be able to get in. Customer service also can’t be reached if you have no connection, luckily the business next door was open and they granted us access to their wifi. There are few dining options near by but there is a small convenience store next door. The location is perfect to visit Zaanse Schans. It would be great if you could rent a bike at this location.
Room was basic, pretty clean. The key wasn’t working at some point, we wrote to customer service and it took a bit for them to reply saying they were having technical difficulties and to try again later. This could have been a huge inconvenience if we needed to grab our belongings to get to the airport or if we urgently needed to use the toilet.
The instructions for checking in were horrible/ non existant. They send you a remote key. No instructions on how to use it. There was no front desk at all. So you show up , nowhere to go to ask questions. We knew from the email where to go but didn’t know how to get in the building or room. There is no connection between the key and the address. There is a need to show people that you need to swipe the two keys in the app and put it up against the door. And also which you use to put up against which door. We stopped at he restaurant beside the hotel and luckily the gentleman knew about this and helped us. They were closing when we got there. Not sure what we would have done without them. The location of this place was perfect. Ground floor. Easy to get to. Close to sites , clean. We loved it and would return but the check in experience was really off.

The check-in arrangement is terrible. The hotel owns several buildings, but all these buildings are separated and scattered. There is no information at all about which building my room belongs to. The customer service's attitude is not nice. The staff over the phone keeps asking what the problem I am facing, and giving me the wrong address. Luckily, the taxi driver who knows Dutch is willing to clarify for me, especially since I only have data but no local phone number. To be honest, the hardware within the room is just up to standard, but the check-in experience definitely makes me not recommend it to anyone. Smart check-in is a good idea given that all the staff and the check-in procedure are smart enough as well.
I wanted to like this property, the area was so cute, but there were quite a few things that caused major frustration. I would like to start by stating the rooms were very clean and the beds were super comfortable! The people who own this property were on time for sending all the needed information. But, when it came time to check into our room, we found out that we were staying in a completely separate building, which was down the street. There was one little sign on the main doors that had the address, which is the only way we found it. No one else around the area could help or knew where the annex was. On top of this, there was zero direction on how to use the electronic key. Luckily, I ran into another couple and they explained how to get into the main building, then the room. Lastly, zero hot water for showers. I normally do not complain, and have very little trouble when it comes to technology and directions, so want to make others aware. There really needs to be clear directions where guests are staying, how to use the room keys, and how to use electricity, water, and etc within the hotel room.

Ok night sleep.
The positive things: Good bed, polite staff, ok cleaning. Not any noise so we got a good night sleep. Close to a nice pub, with friendly staff and locals.
Not so positive: Breakfast not impressive, we went next door for a better meal two times during our stay.
Room was small, water pressure in the shower was low, cold floor, even in the bathroom.
Bugs in the bathroom, but not the biting sort. Reported to the staff so I guess they will handle the insects. Not a deal breaker for us, harmless insects, often connected to humidity.
Will we stay there next time? I guess not, it was a ok stay, but nothing exceptional, except for the pub De Kruyis so we probably will try another hotel next time.
The check-in process was very confusing. Was I supposed to check in 24 hours in advance? The instructions say check-in is between three and eight on the day of arrival. I found the email to check in online and did so around 5 PM on the day of arrival. I awaited for the further instructions to find the room and get the electronic key. However, nothing ever was received details on the check-in indicated there was no hotel front desk. I was concerned the whole way there, not knowing what I was going to find. It was not a good feeling. Fortunately, the guy at the restaurant said no problem. I can take care of you gave us our keys because we had two rooms and we were all set for the night. It’s not the people it’s the process. The people were exceptionally accommodating, but the online process was confusing concerning and something I really don’t want to have to do again. The hotel was very clean the room pillows and sheets. Everything appeared, smelled, and felt new. The breakfast please, everyone in our party.
