Nestled on the edge of Dutch island Ter Schelling, Heartbreak Hotel Cafe Restaurant promises a hunka hunka burnin' love for all things Elvis, but alas, it leaves much to be desired.

On our last night on Terschelling we went here and by accident they charged us 30 euro more than the original bill was. We only found out when we had left. Later when we called them, they transferred the money back to our account without any trouble....
