Check in was a problem. The hotel is part of the Town House across the road, but this is only explained in a closely packed paragraph in Dutch. The front door is locked, and there are no staff on site. The advice to check in across the road is not clearly visible, not prominent and only in Dutch.
Once this had been resolved, by gaining access and telephoning reception, staff were very friendly, helpful and professional.
Room is clean, but sparse and of unusual design - very trendy. It is linked with a design school, and unusual. Room large, bed excellent, bathroom the same, lighting OK, storage adequate, and a safe is provided.
The area of Maastricht between the river and the (very quiet) railway station is the smart trendy arty part of Maastricht with excellent local catering, art galleries and shops. Parking is easy, as it car access - across the river it is a pedestrian area.
