“This modern hotel stands out for its central Groningen location and family-friendly environment, though some guests have noted inconsistencies in service. I particularly like the promise of the upcoming rooftop bar and the on-site bakery, blending convenience with local flavor. Overall, a solid choice with some evolving service aspects.”
