The property was clean and pleasant, staff were very lovely
Theresa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our room wasn't large but it was all we needed for a few days in Brussels and came with a fridge and safe, which are often missing in budget hotels. The room was perfectly clean and the beds were comfortable. The shower was always hot with plenty of pressure, and we really appreciated the blackout shutters that we could close at night. Whenever we interacted with staff they were friendly and helpful, and the complimentary fruit and coffee in the lobby was a really nice touch. The hotel is very conveniently located near to shops and a metro station. The only word of warning I'd give is that the street itself where the hotel is located is something of a back street, though seemingly a popular short cut, and doesn't feel the safest at night, but we never saw any actual trouble and it wouldn't stop me staying here again.

2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a very comfortable stay. Quiet and clean. The family room was 2 ajoined rooms and I appreciated that there were separate beds for my kids. Only problem was the walk in shower didn't drain well and flooded the bathroom and hall after less than 5 minutes. Apprently this is a common problem and the staff just gave us extra towels to clean up the water that overflowed.

Brussels Christmas markets

City break in Brussels Had a great time and the hotel was very central
Michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great if you get the right room

This hotel was absolutely wonderful - if you get the right room. First I got a room in the basement which was awful, but I asked to switch and got a beautiful room with amazing view. The hotel all in all is great, but it's a bit strange they had the same price for such different rooms. The ones in the basement should be half price.

Very nice staff

2/10 Poor

Electronics were hanging our, shower was not cleaned and there was reinforcement right in the middle of the room which made it super hard to use. Toilet was in a closet size room and shower was separate. Also breakfast was extremely low quality
Mahmood, 2-night trip

Nice room with everything you need. Staff very friendly and helpful, especially reception. Only negative is location, not the best part of town.

Barbara, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel itself was tucked in an alley. The room was great and the shower was WONDERFUL! The outside of the hotel was a bit run down but nothing that affects the stay itself. The staff were wonderful.
