    While the room was comfortable, everything is in a single room so may not be suitable for groups wanting a little more privacy

    Excellent location. Maybe 1 minute walk to Grote Markt. Comfortable bunk beds and air conditioning!

    We stayed during summer and found the room quite stuffy, would have been nice to have a fan. Also would have been helpful to have a mini fridge.

    Very cute and cozy, what we needed for our week stay. Close to supermarkets/shops and the train station.

    there were not sufficient towels or bedding to accommodate 4 adults, as well as not enough comforts you would assume would be at an apartment rental (no mini-fridge, no counter space to get ready, etc.) Also it was very tight for 4 adults and difficult to get into the apartment with luggage. tv didn't work. very dusty with cobwebs all over apartment.

    The location was phenomenal! beautiful area and very safe. The apartment had a lot of charm. easy checkin.

    The toilet for room 2, needs to have a better locking system, so to be only used by room 2.... A microwave would've been advantageous but we coped...

    Location perfect.....Room was budget but clean, and had good facilities, clean bedding, clean towels and enough space to cater for our needs... Tiny but spacious.. Cheap but definitely suitable for a family on a budget.. Also...the staff respond to your questions in a timely manner.... Would we stay there again...ABSOLUTELY...

    It could use just a little more TLC. It's all very basic and "dry". If the hosts tried just a little more. Small things, like shampoo, a little more sound insulation (it's right in party town) a little decoration. Notification that the street gets closed off at night so you have to walk around.....

    Great location, fun place to spend a couple of nights in Haarlem.

    We had not expected the noise level to be so loud from outside. Even earplugs at times would not help. There is no point in going to bed any time before midnight.

    The cleanliness and the location was just great. Beds were ok and the rooms were very small as the name of accommodation suggests. Can't complain about that.

    Quirky, centrally located, next to where the locals party.

    • Stayed 4 nights

    I repeatedly received instructions saying that I could store my luggage prior to check-in at a local coffee shop. The coffee shop has a new owner and is no longer allowing bags to be stored. This could cause problems, as the nearest luggage storage service is back at the train station about 10 blocks away. It was very loud outside at night, the location is very near a couple of bars that are popular with the young locals, who also hang out on the street. On the weekends, there is a metal gate blocking the street to keep people from peeing in the alley, etc. There is no way to open the gate, you have to walk around the block from the next street, it is a good thing that I had access to a map because there was no warning about this.

    The location is very close to the main square and not too far from the train station. There was an electric heater and fan available if needed. The door locks had codes, no need for keys or cards, or even checking-in in person.

    The motion sensor in the bathroom kept turning off the light after a couple of seconds. It turned the light off when I was brushing my teeth or taking a shower. There’s also a sewer smell coming from the shower and the bathroom sink faucet was loose. There’s no AC so it can be quite warm in summer and the residents upstairs can be noisy when walking up to their room or just walking around their room.

    Location was great, everything within walking distance of stores, restaurants and the supermarket.

    Very hot temperatures and no air-conditioning, just a small fan that did not make much difference. Opened the windows at night as far as possible but pretty ineffective. Bar patrons climbed the scaffolding on the building opposite us in the early hours of the morning making lots of noise - was not aware of the bars or the building work being undertaken. No kettle, cups or glasses supplied meaning bottled water only.

    Super location - very very close to the square. Lots of eating and shopping options just a short walk. Small apartment but as expected based upon the photos. Comfortable beds and a great coffee shop directly underneath the apartment. Good wifi. Host was very pleasant - we did not ask for any assistance as felt there was nothing that could have been done about the heat or the night noise.

    Loud bar nearby which is noisy until like 4:00 am but there’s not much you can do about that so it’s alright.

    Wonderful location right in the middle of Haarlem. Checking in and out was really easy and communication with owner was great. Room was clean and comfortable and had a good bathroom.

    The lower bed is very cold. Necessary stuff for living not exists: microwave, kettle, table/chairs, fridge. No wardrobe. Where 4 guests will store their clothes and bags? The door lock code never changes! Not safe!

    Right in the center. A lot of shops around. Was not bothered to much by noise during the night, kid was ok with that.

    Entrance to lane was blocked during weekend evenings which was annoying but we realize it is not under the control of the accommodation. Construction noise of opposite building was very loud. Property itself is very tiny, but was perfect for what we needed. A kettle or microwave would be a nice addition.

    Good location, separated sleeping areas was nice.

    There was barely air and the window could open just a bit and the noises echoed from outside especially during the night so earplugs recommended. We'd change the mattresses because some of them were really untidy (one mattress' mess could be seen directly from the lower bed) and all beds kept squeaking more or less whenever someone moved. There were some dirt spots on the walls so the mold was pretty nasty "surprise" because there were 3 allergic people and 1 pregnant travelling and most of us had our noses blocked or throats sore in the morning.

    The location was good (about 10 minutes walk from the station) and the accommodation fit our group of 5 people well to the 30 square family room and we had quite private room in general. It also was good to have 3 mirrors in total so we didn't have to rely only on 1 mirror when we prepared ourselves in the morning. We didn't meet the staff but they sent us a good info packet how to find the place and how to enter the room etc.

    Central location so very loud at night (but so central). The phone number on booking.com is old so trying to get into the property after 9pm when the gate shut was difficult. Eventually realised that an email with check in details for the key code never arrived or I didn’t see it. Eventually got hold of the people who run the place and they were very helpful and friendly, even though it was 10pm. The couch was uncomfortable but really, this is a very good property and good value for money.

    central location, clean, above a lovely coffee shop.
