My stay at Verne Dreams was nice but had its ups and downs. On one hand, I loved the unique themed room and the really good comfort of the bed, which helped me sleep better than anywhere else in Europe. However, I found the staircases narrow and challenging, which could be a concern for some guests. Overall, it was a good experience despite a few minor drawbacks.

While the boutique hotel offered unique accommodations, the lack of basic amenities like drinking water and coffee facilities in the room was disappointing. Also, the parking situation was quite stressful, as there was only one available space which was not accessible during my visit.

My stay at Verne Dreams was a mix of high points and some disappointments. Vincent, the owner, is genuinely dedicated to making guests feel welcome and his personalized service stood out. However, the narrow and winding stairs to the upper levels were rather daunting, and I found the rooms to be quite cramped. Overall, while the unique themed accommodations offered charm, the physical setup left room for improvement.
