Great room, quiet, convenient location, loved the décor.
SCAMMERS! They sell rooms with no windows!! That is not shown in the page. Once you get there you realize it´s a tiny room with no window and no ventilation, like sleeping inside a closet (I´m talking about sunny August). When I tell to the "receptionist" (that is serving tables in the restaurant at the same time) she replayed that I could sleep with the door open. Nothing makes sense here. It´s a restaurant with rooms, not a hotel. Corridors and stairs smell like old oil fried food coming from the kitchen. Kitchen don´t have smoke extractor (that is not legal), smell goes up to the rooms (they leave the fire exit door at the top floor to get ventilation). A total dissaster.
prima volta in un dormitorio, purtroppo sono io che non mi ci trovo. avevo prenotato per una singola che però è stata riassegnata per motivi di forza maggiore. le ragazze sono sempre state gentili con me, la struttura è anche un pub dove mangiare e bere, è abbastanza in centro e ci son tutti localini. tutto sommato bene, ma la prossima volta starò attenta per la stanza singola! 😊

Buon hotel di ridotte dimensioni
Unico punto negativo le pareti sottili che facevano sentire qualsiasi cosa. La stanza era piccina ma accogliente, anche se senza finestre. Lenzuola, moquette e bagno dignitosi, ottima accoglienza. Posizione molto centrale e un prezzo direi discreto.
Ik had 's nachts wel een andere dronken hotelgast die op mijn deur ging bonken en ging schreeuwen om "Wendy" aangezien d8e naam op de deur pronkte. Dat was het enige mindere. Voor de rest, het personeel was vriendelijk, de kamer schoon, het bed lag lekker en de locatie was top!
Nice and cosy bed, I slept well and it's close to the shopping district. The receptionist was very nice and welcoming. I will definitely stay here again.
onprofessionele service, de kamer was veel te warm de rolluiken deden het nauwelijks. de scansleutel om de voordeur open te doen deed het ook niet. en daarnaast stond ik eens te douchen en was het water gewoon op koud als warm gewoonweg geen water!!!

Reformado y en buen lugar, pero no lo recomiedo
Es un restaurante con habitaciones para alquilar en las plantas superiores. No hay recepción, no hay personal que atienda el hotel y aparentemente desde la calle no hay hotel ni hostal. Posiblemente esten de manera ilegal. De hecho, hay que entrar a las habitaciones entre las mesas del restaurante subiendo una planta y por medio de una puerta oculta. Tiene una puerta independiente desde la calle con un sistema complicado de entender y que te conviene saber como funciona en caso de que llegues tarde, pero esta ocupado por las mesas del restaurante. La mujer que te hace el check in lo hace estresada y de manera muy poco agradable, eso si, siempre con la tipica sonrisa falsa. Aparentemente es como si fuese la dueña, era una mujer rubia, con una actitud de la tipica que se piensa que esta bien fisicamente y que es superior, todo muy de caricatura, de hecho cuando te habla para enseñarte las habitaciones te dice "follow the leader", como creyedose especial. Era de chiste. Pero el tema fue a más, cuando le pregunté que me aclarara sobre el acceso independiente para no tener que entrar por el restaurante, me daba largas de mala manera (pero con la sonrisa) y llego a tener una actitud amenanzante comingo porque le estaba quitando el tiempo para atender a sus clientes del restuante. Alucinante.
A favor, la habitacion está limpia y en buen estado aunque es muy pequeña, y además las personas del restaurante que estan alli, osea camareras y cocinero, son muy agradables.
İlk önce rezervasyonu onaylamadan önce 612 tl ücret alınacaktı kartımdan 669 tl çekti hotels.com beni kandırdınız bu fazla miktarı iade etmeniz gerekiyor güvenli değilsiniz
I booked the Mama room for Sunday to Wednesday. Great arrival, the location & street level cafe entrance is fab. Several noticeably shabby corridors and stairways lead to my top floor where the noise of a washing machine and dryer operating full time opposite Mamas room strikes me as humerous until late tuesday evening. It smells of dirty laundry. The room seems unserviced and bed dirty and only when arriving back on monday to a clean room & bed and reading the hotel rules & services folder that it became obvious the previous customers sheets had not been changed. By rule, the linens are washed every 3 days unless requested otherwise. Theres no phone, no tv and not enough air.
Im sorry to say that although Thuis Bij Schell has the makings of something great, an overal lack of standards and attention to detail just aint sexy.
Terrible experience. No hot water .no Internet connection. The room is very very basic. Dirty carpet and €50 deposit on checking. I wouldn't recommend this place to someone

Rooms situated above a bar.
In the innermost part of the city in a noisy neighbourhood with lots of bars. The light in my room did not work. I had to share the shower and toilet with other guests. I probably paid too much.
Stijle trap naar een hete miserabele kamer. Gedeeld toilet en schamele muurdouche. Ook geen ontbijt, das alleen in het weekend. Te triest voor woorden. Expedia onwaardig. Dit NOOIT meer!
Kleine kamer, wel schoon. Gedeeld badkamer ook schoon. Kamer lag aan de straatzijde, maar daar gelukkig geen last van gehad. Aanrader voor één of twee nachten.
Hotel staat centraal gelegen in het centrum. Beetje lastig te vinden omdat het café beneden hun core business is.
Niet erg schoon, personeel wel aardig.

Not for business trip - can be noisy in the week
Great central location but the night I stayed it was noisy as I had the "Pink" room at the front over looking the bar opposite which was going until the early hours on a week night.
Bar downstairs id quite cool and the bar maid was very helpful. OK for a weekend but not for work.
Note the shower and toilets are shared, I missed this detail when I booked!
If you want a truly Dutch experience, T'huis Bij Schell is the place to get it. The rooms are not fancy, but they're clean and artisticaly themed. My bed was a bit softer than I like, but I'm unusual. A huge bonus is the excellent restaurant below the Hotel. Classic dutch dishes are served by a friendly staff in a comfortable setting. The Dutch habe a word for this. Gezellig. My only advice is, travel light, since there is no elevator.
Ik zocht iets eenvoudig om een nacht te verblijven in Rotterdam na een bedrijfsetentje en vond deze superaanbieding op Expedia.
Het gebouw is met smaak ingericht en het ontvangst was super. Op een heel vriendelijke en professionele manier werd me alles uitgelegd en kon ik vlot inchecken.
Aangezien het een gebouw met karakter betreft hangt de nachtrust af van hoe en wanneer de andere hotelgasten thuiskomen.
