Guesthouse Vertoef

Top!

I recently stayed at Vertoef, drawn by its promising location and amenities. Unfortunately, the experience fell short due to the unsettling atmosphere and the owner's approach to human interactions. Despite the convenience of parking and the allure of it's location, the environment within Vertoef felt tense, with staff seemingly on edge. This tension was exacerbated by the owner's demeanor; witnessing him raise his voice at people was discomforting. My interactions with him felt disingenuous, particularly when I observed a preferential treatment towards guests who appeared more wealthy. For instance, a few years back, when I visited with my family, who may at times adopt an appearance that could be interpreted as more affluent, the treatment we received was noticeably warmer. It's worth noting, however, that the accommodations themselves were quite basic, underscoring that the establishment isn't necessarily targeting a higher-end clientele. All of this contrasted starkly with a previous stay at an Airbnb in the building next door (similarly colored balconies), where the relaxed atmosphere and fair treatment made for a much more enjoyable experience without sacrificing the benefits of location. In sharing this, my hope is for Vertoef to reconsider the importance of genuine hospitality and a welcoming atmosphere, ensuring all human beings feel valued and respected.

Had a wonderful stay. Room was clean and staff was always friendly. Room was large with kitchenette and Wi-Fi connection was perfect. Draw backs, no staff after 8pm, not that we needed it as the other guests were quiet and respectful and the breakfast buffet could use some variety. But would definitely stay again.

Fantastic location near the station and near the main area. Everything is on your door step! We booked the larger room as we were there 5 nights. It was spacious, clean and good basic furniture. Decent size bathroom for Nijmegen. I loved the kitchenette to be able to prepare healthy food when we wanted to. A really good restaurant and bar for breakfast and simple lunch. Great gym! Efficient staff. Modern and stylish ambiance. I have booked to stay there again in early September.
