No money or time to go on holiday far away? Grab a hotel in your own city! We from nearby are always very good. You are in a different environment for a while (but then again not) and it is always exciting how the room looks like. This time we slept at ‘super budget‘ easyHotel The Hague City Center. It was exactly as the name suggests: very easy.

The reception
The location of easyHotel City Center is perfect if, for example, you’re going out for a night out. Located on Parkweg next to the Catholic Church, you are next to Lange Voorhout and around the corner from Place.
The reception by the two receptionists is very friendly. I had to speak in English because in my case Dutch was not their official language. No problem for me: that only makes the experience more international! I get the ticket for the room and the receptionist personally walks me to the garage behind the hotel where I can store my bike.

The room & the night
My room is on the first floor and is basic but sleek, with the well-known orange colors here and there. There is a desk and a TV on the wall. The bathroom is fully equipped and, importantly, clean. The whole room is actually super clean but, it must be said, not very cosy. But that’s not what easyHotels is about: you pay around € 70 per night, for which you are still very centrally located and all functional necessities at hand have. Take the bed for example, where there is a special compartment at the bottom for your suitcase.
In the evening I go into town for a while after which I can practically roll back to my room in easyHotel. Arriving in the room I try to turn on the light with the card, unfortunately it doesn’t work. I don’t feel like walking downstairs or making a phone call, just looking for my toothbrush in the dark! (The next morning it turned out that this problem was entirely my own fault: I should have just pushed a little harder, the receptionist laughs.)
At night you hear, if you on the Parkstraat side, clearly the tram and other traffic. At least if you have your window open, which in this case was desirable because of the weather. If you are sensitive to noise, earplugs are useful. The bed slept absolutely wonderfully, with a mattress that was neither too hard nor too soft. The curtains are blackout so even if it is still light outside, it is really dark in the room.

Conclusion
Breakfast is not included: for a tenner you can have an extensive breakfast at the neighbors, but I’ll skip that one. After all, you have everything around the corner, so I’m going to have some food at the Place. I had a great night at easyHotel Den Haag City Center. It was above all what the company stands for: easy, affordable and functional.
