I had a decent stay at the hotel. The rooms were large and comfortable, which made it a good choice for my business trip. However, the service left a lot to be desired, with some staff being unfriendly and not very attentive. The location is convenient for travelers, but it's also quite far from Emmen city center. Overall, it was a decent stay, but there’s definitely room for improvement in the service department.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and came with a jacuzzi bath which made for a relaxing experience. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a cool room, which I really appreciated. However, the location next to the freeway wasn't ideal, especially without a complimentary shuttle service to local attractions. Overall, it was a good value for money, but just keep in mind the parking could get a bit pricey.

The hotel has a decent location, although it's a bit far from the center of Emmen and next to a busy motorway. The rooms were quite spacious and had a nice shared balcony. However, the service in the breakfast area could use some improvement, and the dining conditions were uncomfortable due to the heat. Overall, it’s a clean place but not the most convenient for exploring the area.
