Gårdar i Terschelling Island

"I booked this hotel based on the high ratings at Hotels.com, but unfortunately my experience didn’t quite match the expectations those reviews created. The building is noticeably worn out and in need of renovation. There is no elevator, and the only way up is via steep, narrow, winding staircases that require real caution when carrying luggage or simply moving between floors. The rooms are extremely poorly soundproofed. It was so noisy that it often felt as if other guests were standing inside my room when they where in the hallway or in their room. Breakfast is frequently described as very good in the reviews, but I found the selection quite limited. There was only white bread and very few options that could be considered a healthy breakfast. It felt more like a minimal offering than something worth highlighting. What I want to highlight is the location — it’s excellent, with convenient parking options all around. The host and staff were also genuinely friendly, welcoming, and service‑minded, which made the stay more pleasant despite the shortcomings. Overall, the hotel’s high rating feels misleading. With some improvements, it could be a charming place, but in its current state it doesn’t live up to the praise it receives online."
