Berty’s place is everything you will come to expect from Rotterdam and The Netherlands as a whole: It’s quirky, functional and stylish.
The location is near (Leuvehaven - within a 3 minute walk) a Rotterdam metro line. It is a 10 or so minute walk from Spido (who provide major boat tours of Rotterdam), 10-12 minute walk from the Markthal and CubeHouses.
We personally didn’t use public transport once, and saw and did most of what you could hope to do in Rotterdam. If you’re coming from Rotterdam Centraal, then use an Uber or taxi if you’re not travelling light.
There is a good working shower, kitchen hob, fridge, TV (with Netflix (you’ll need an account) and YouTube ), and dishwasher.
The bedrooms are two compact cabins (actual wooden cabins) with little room to move around - we didn’t mind this - but those with mobility concerns should know be aware.
Beds were very soft and comfortable - as were the linens and pillows.
The property comes with three fans - ideal for the hotter days, and a giant radiator that works wonders at heating the place quickly.
The door to the ground floor property will make you feel incredibly secure as you sleep - it has 3 locks and 2 bolts.
WiFi is patchy depending on where you are in the property, but it does work.
+ Location is superb for the price
+ Most amenities you could need
+ Stylish and quirky
- Patchy WiFi
- bedroom cabins are small for two people to move around (ideal for 2 solo travellers though)
