“Great location, stylish accommodation”
Great central location. Super view of the canal from the Roald Dahl room, with big windows. Some noise from outside, but to be expected in a city centre location, and ear plugs were available :) Entry with phone link worked well.

“A very nice place in the center of Leiden! Good to relax and enjoy the city!”
A very nice and cosy place in the center of Leiden. Just 10min walk from the train station. Beautiful view from our room to the town. We had a very nice and clean room. The digital keeys were easy to handle with a smartphone because there is no reception!
