Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The esthetics of the hotel are fine, the room looked clean, it didn't smell to clean however it looks fine. The heating was not working, the bathroom is not practical as is open and you have to clean it after having a shower as it gets everything wet, they even put the tools to do it, so they are very aware of the issue. The hot water was intermittent so I didn't enjoyed the shower at all. Breakfast has variety, however low quality, microwaved eggs, and other things that taste like plastic. On the website the breakfast was announced for like €34, on the desk they asked me for €21, too expensive for what they offer. Not really my cup of tea. Happy to share pictures but I don't see the option to add them.

Nice location on the beach. Room was nice, perhaps getting somewhat aged but that was reflected by the price. A bit longer walk in to Makkum itself, but doable and safe. We picked it for the water view and easy access to laundry facilities, right nearby, for the midpoint of our trip.

Not bad hotel

The stay was good, bathroom a bit dangerous due to newly laid tiles. Which are not designed for shower and bathroom floors. Had to use a towel in the shower and bath room floor to stop slipping over.

Good service, rooms average (dirty carpets). We changed rooms because of a strange smell. The reception acted right away, without discussion, and give us another room. Staff very friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room had a ver foul sewage smell, stained bedding and carpet. The shower was moldy, toiletries provided were empty when I went to use them. Tried opening window to let in fresh air and spiders were everywhere behind curtains. I did ask to be moved to another Timm and the front desk did accommodate me. Next room was a bit better but similar condition in the bathroom. The condition of the rooms are very old, damaged and needing a complete upgrade. Lobby and restaurant looked nice. I did not eat onsite as restaurant was closed early upon arrival.

It's a beautiful place. The hotel is clean and the staff is helpful, smiling and attentive. We didn't have breakfast or eat at the restaurant but we saw people. Our terrace was on the roof side but we couldn't eat outside because of the cobwebs or something. On the sea side, the terraces seemed more accessible.

Steel mattress springs no topper

The mattress springs were harsh I am still limping around from the ache in my hip. My back aches and my shoulder is sore. II slept on top of the comforter to add cushion. It helped some. Very nice people and service but I ache and now need a massage to enjoy the rest of my vacation.

On the sea in Makkum

Really liked many aspects of this hotel. I was there in the winter for a visit to one of the many yards that calls Makkum home. Restaurant and service was two highlights and the view from the room was great. Bed and bedding, not so much, the team would need to switch things up for me to sleep well with both feeling dated and bedding not fitting well to the bed.

Overall, a bit basic but it was an okay stay for one night in the winter. Mostly just the lack of transparency, as the hotel reception charged triple the amount of the 'additional fee' than what was listed on the Expedia site when booking. Otherwise fine for what you pay - thank you!

The restaurant has a really good cook and team, excellent cuisine and that in The Netherlands .. Rooms are dated but they build new and should be ready soon. Hopefully they get rid of the cigarette smokers because that’s a health hazard and gross too, yak. Bright future ahead when smart choices are prevalent within.
