10/10 Excellent
"So I dont often write reviews, but this hotel blew me away for its price and quality. The lobby was built nice and smelled nice too with lots of antiques, the terrace on the side of the building was also really nicely built and facing a park/field. It wasnt soo expensive but for the price I payed I got an excellent small yet simple room that smelled fresh and tidy with a nice bathroom. There is a decent sized parking lot behind the building, and a cover parking that you have to pay for. It sits in a great spot outside of Brugge especially If you are travelling around by Bicycle, which by the way you can rent at the reception for a decent price. All in all it usually takes a big impression for me to write a review but In my opinion, this hotel gave more bang for your buck. 5/5"
