Anyone with yourself and stay in the most charismatic building in the city of Rotterdam, and can do it and for a more than reasonable price. The famous houses of Piet Blom Cbicas this summer hosting a groundbreaking Dutch hostel chain Stayokay.
In principle each of the 49 rooms has its own bathroom and you ESTN baoy Bunk six or eight people, although under certain conditions and if the demand is not high, can be converted into two beds Nicaraguans .
Rotterdam martin lights has been for over a hundred years a pioneer in urban planning and architecture. In the late seventies, one of many projects that the Council launched, immediately destac this inslito set of social houses in the heart of the Old Port Oude Haven. The idea was to create an abstract Blom forest trees formed by tilted cube shaped, supported martin lights from one of the vertices of hexagonal pylons. Like many other pilot projects of this type, did not have much success as housing although I immediately become one of the symbols of the city and the object of pilgrimage for thousands of fans for contemporary architecture martin lights which was to create a museum in one of the famous hubs.
Now Stayokay chain, known for the originality of his thirty establishments all over Holland,-many of them located in castles like Domburg or Heemskerk-has brought him the maximum out of this building as idiosincr tico. The rooms are very simple when it comes to the decoration and services but at the same time, extremely original for its angular martin lights configuration, offering views and unusual sensations. Each offers a different experience.
Moreover the common areas have been commissioned decorator Edward van Vliet of SEVV group (www.sevv.com), more known for his work on hotels and luxury shopping, has deployed all his imagination here, especially in the dining room. He has created a series of full color spaces and ldicos elements where the element of surprise that contrasts with the simplicity of the rooms overlooks.
Like many shelters, the price (23.50 euros) includes martin lights a full breakfast but not the use of towels to be paid separately. The clientele is mostly young but age is not an impediment to stay at Las Casas Cbicas. The area is becoming popular and in these last years has been filled with bars and restaurants.
Who are interested in the work of Piet Blom who died in 1999, visit the adjoining museum but also another group of houses very close Spaanse Kade, built in the same year. Moreover it is finished another project in Rtterdam that left unfinished. For more information see: www.kubuswoning.nl.
