Clean and spacious room for our family. Location wasn't superb due to locating in areas where people smoke all the time and streets were dirty with rubbish but it wasn't hotel's fault.

Stylish and nice lounge where travellers can take a good rest and read.

Shower floor was slippery with no handles. My toddler has fallen down while having shower even with our assistance within the shower area. Luckily he wasn't hurt. Might be better to add anti slip mat for all rooms.

Hotel was great for what we needed, a place walking distance from Brussels Zuid and walking distance from the centre. It was clean, staff were helpful and had a really nice atmosphere.
Walking there from the station felt a lot like walking through a building site a lot of the time and we wondered what we were heading towards, but we need not have worried.

Although hotel is nice, neighborhood at night is super sketchy and overall not what you expect culture wise when you’re vacationing to Brussels. Room is extremely hot with no fan, the window barely opens to receive air flow. Complimentary pastries in the lobby had hundreds of little flies fly off when I went to grab one. Only liquid soap in the shower. Would I stay here again, no. The surrounding area ruined it for us. But if you don’t care about that, the room was decent in my opinion.

The hotel itself is really nice and calming. With friendly staff. Rooms were clean and maintained daily throughout our stay.

The rooms did get a little warm with no air con, and it did take a while to ge served at the hotel bar.

The hotel did offer a nice calming feeling after arriving through a quite unsafe feeling neighbourhood in the surrounding area where you are met with dirty streets and crowds of people loitering in the street corners.

The hotel itself is good—modern, clean, and professional staff. However, travelers should be aware of the location. It is situated on the outskirts of the city center in a neighborhood that feels quite disconnected from the main tourist areas, a Muslim populated area. The local atmosphere feels more like a different international city than the one we expected, and as a result, we didn't feel entirely comfortable walking around, especially at night. If you plan to stay here, I’d recommend using taxis or ride-shares rather than walking to the center.

We had a lovely stay at this hotel. The hotel was nicely decorated, very clean and the staff was polite and helpful.

We loved that there were several options for breakfast: full continental breakfast at 16 euros, but also smaller options at 4.50 and 7 euros, which was ideal for us as we do not eat a lot in the morning.

There is a vending machine just by the lift, so we could get water.

The room was clean, spacious and the bed was very comfortable.

Regarding the location, I won't lie, the surrounding area is not super nice, with rubbish on the street, however I won't let this affect my rating as it's not the hotel's fault and it's a bit like that everywhere in Brussels as soon as you leave the old town centre. However we felt safe and I wouldn't define the are dangerous at all.

Regarding the location, it was really good: 15 minutes walk from Midi Station (so you can easily travel to Bruges/Ghent which are cities I truly recommend!) and 12 minutes from the old town. There are also buses/trams 5-10 minutes away to the Parliament or the Atomium.

I would say, if I really have to suggest something extra that would have made our stay even better:
- It would be great to have a kettle in the room, just to be able to take a tea in the afternoon or before going to sleep.
- The check-in process took quite long, despite we were there at 3pm, the rooms were not ready and we had to wait about an hour. They offered us a drink during the waiting though.

Overall very good.

The only downward is the location. It's located just a couple minutes away by feet of the center of the city and it feels like a totally different city. It's super dirty, with garbage and detritus laying in the street. It seems like a lot of residents in this area are, unfortunately, very filthy and disrespectful of the cleanliness of their city.

It's too bad the hotel is located in this area because like I said, I have nothing wrong to say about th hotel itself, nor the staff. Everything was great.

I'll start by saying that the hotel is absolutely lovely. The staff are very welcoming and happy to help, the check-in process was very easy and the rooms were very comfortable. My biggest issue relates to the area that the hotel is in. It feels completely out of place. The area outside looks a mess, with trash all over, lots of parked cars, bins blocking large portions of the pavement and generally people loitering at all hours of the day. We were warned on check-in about pickpockets in the area and even the short walk from the tram stop to the hotel felt unsafe. There's unfortunately not a lot the hotel can do about this but I would say don't stay here as a vulnerable solo traveller as you'll feel very uncomfortable.

As for the hotel, my only grumble was with the temperature of the shower. It would've been acceptable for washing your hands in but it made getting a shower a very cold and uncomfortable experience. We did report it to maintainance but was told it was beyond their control. It would also be beneficial to have some dimmer lights in the bathroom because it was very bright in there.

On the plus side the foyer was lovely, the bedroom was spacious, it had a decent TV. The stay in the room was very comfortable so absolutely no complaints there.
