Central location to Delfshaven. Near to metro. Lots of bars, food outlets and food shops nearby. Makes a good place to explore Rotterdam. We did mostly walking and it was easy to get around. Recommend the euromast (18Euro) and thermal holiday spa (40Euro but worth it get there at 10am opening), Hook of Holland beach lovely. Walking the many bridges, Delfshaven windmill, having a meal overlooking the harbour. Central Rotterdam has lots of sights to see and a nice market on Sat and Tue at the Blaak stop.
There are groups of guys hanging around on street corners even on the coldest of nights.
