Question Recommendations?

Staying at the Apollo in two weeks.
1) Do you think renovations will be completed?
2) Any recommendations for restaurants within walking distance from the hotel?
3) Any interesting sights to see or places to go within walking distance to the hotel?
4) Nearby place to get GOOD stroopwaffels?
5) any other recommendations in the area?
6) How did you find the hotel restaurant (breakfast and/or dinner)?

Agree with the comment about the bathroom, absolutely terrible design. The shower head in installed on the wrong wall and the glass meant to keep water in the tub, is absolutely not up to the job. One of the most terrible designs I've seen.

Construction remains ongoing although I did not hear anything from our first floor room. Lots of construction on going for the meeting room space. I don't think they are done with all the rooms (although ours seems to have been refreshed).

IMO, paid rate were quite reasonable. So much so that I wished I had paid cash (but used points regardless).

I'd return.
