“centrally located”
- Comfortable room, nice setting, and next to a micro-brewery
- no lift, so a bit of a challenge lugging bags up and down 3 flights

“”
- Good location. Clean. Friendly.
- Room view was of court yard which was messy and seemed to be a dumping ground for old furniture. This made room dark as we had to close curtains to block out view

“Clean, comfortable, traditional furnishings and decoration”
- Good place to stay that was convenient, comfortable, and at a reasonable price. The other, big chain hotels in Leiden may closer to the center of town, but they are also much more expensive. The Hotel Nieuw Minerva Leiden is near the pedestrian shopping area and within easy walking distance to the train station. It is really very comfortable and has old-fashioned Dutch flair. Free wireless in the lobby. The 7 euros for breakfast is also a great deal!
- I didn't have a problem, but if you cannot walk up steep flights of stairs, this hotel is not for you.

“beatiful hotel right in Leiden center”
- location right at the town center by a canal. My room was decorated with classical paintings and was otherwise very artistic too

“Must be better options”
- Quirky, charming old building, easy walking distance of station and all of central and historic Leiden.
- Construction work nearby meant that the room and everything in it were shaking quite a lot during the day. Laughably expensive wi-fi. Lots of stairs, no lift.

“Modest but good value for money”
- Good location; historic area; clean, functional room with own shower & WC; nice breakfast. Good value for money.
- Tiny room (which is not unusual for the Netherlands; if they say "single room" they mean it). Staff not particularly friendly (also fairly normal for the Netherlands). Steep stairs and no elevator, hence more suitable for younger, energetic people. Wireless Internet extortionately expensive.

“Great loation, tiny rooms, expensive and faded...”
- Secure indoor bike storage. Very friendly staff. Excellent cental location - in the best part of historic Leiden. THe communal areas look tired but have good character. Adequate breakfast included.
- Tiny box room with an outward opening door. Even tinier bathroom with lots of mould. Dead mosquitos squashed all over the ceiling. Soggy old beds.Very expensive for what it is... How many opinionated, loud American students can you fit in one hotel?
