The room was clean, had a refrigerator, safe & coffee maker & supplies. They also had coffee maker and cold water in the lobby for us to use. You have to ask for the room to be serviced daily. The negative is that the room location was not good. You can hear the elevator going up and down all night. Also, no privacy because all the room in the back face a corridor and each other which meant you can’t open the curtain. The hotel is near shopping & food facilities. Walkable to the train central station, 17 min walk. Found places to eat, had my nails done, bought fresh fruits, laundry facilities near buy.. walkable. The staff is helpful.

This hotel was super close to a metro station, and just a 15-minute walk from Brussels-Centraal and other cool spots. The staff was really nice and even gave us some great food recommendations. But honestly, the best part for me was the bed. It was so comfy, and after all that walking, it felt amazing to just crash in it and get some good rest.

Nous venons de passer 7 nuits là-bas. Nous sommes du Québec, j’avais réservé via expédia. Tout était parfait pour nous. Nous avons même pu avoir notre chambre à 14:00 ce qui nous a permis de se reposer considérant le vol et le décalage horaire!!! Bon petit déjeuner. Personnel super sympathique. Proche de la station de Métro. Facile à pied du centre de Bruxelles. Puis accessible facile à un stationnement souterrain. Je recommande 😊

Clean room, other reviews state rooms are small I do not agree plenty for two to explore Brussels. Near to Louise station which is 4 metro stops from Midi where our coach from the airport stopped. We were close to the lobby which concerned me as people relax here and it can be loud. Didn’t cause any issues was very quiet. Great little find and would return. Shutters on windows a great feature for a nice lie in.

The room was clean, well-ventilated, and had a great shower. The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially Mel, who went above and beyond with support, tips, and advice — she really made my stay special!

Overall, the hotel offers great value for money, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Brussels.

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.

The staff was very helpful. It seems like this hotel was very nice at one point, but there is a lack of attention to detail in maintenance and cleanliness, especially in common areas. Many times we went through the lobby there were people sleeping on the furniture or with all their belongings spread out. The entrance is essentially on an alley that was quite dirty and full of trash during our stay.

It was nice to have cheap, theoretically convenient parking. Theoretical because the ticket to return to the garage never worked, so we had to go several blocks out of our way and through a mall to access the garage (instructions that no one gave us and no signage indicated).

The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a nice lobby, and even nicer rooms. The room was clean and the bed was extremely comfy. Although still walkable, the hotel is a bit of a trek walking from main tourist attractions, and the walk is up a very steep hill. Definitely difficult if you're not used to hilly areas, but worth it for the price. One morning, someone opened our door at 8am while we were asleep even though I put the do not disturb sign on the door. Also, they randomly cancelled our booking in the system, so we walk back 40 mins uphill to make sure everything was okay as their phone number didn't work. Luckily everything was fine and the guy at the front desk was very friendly. However, it did kind of disrupt our day, but accidents happen. The area around the hotel is neat with some shopping and good food, but the hotel itself is in what feels like an alley way and wouldn't feel safe at night.

We stayed in Superior Double Room. Although the room is a bit small, it was fairly comfortable with good air conditioning, fridge, and electric kettle. The only shortcoming was that it took 10-15 minutes to have warm water from the shower.
Breakfast is very nice.
An underground public parking (Interparking Toison D’Or) is available for 15 Euros per 24 hours that is inexpensive rate for Brussels. (Hotel discount rate is not available.)
Almost all major touristic sites in Brussels are within walking distance.
If the hot water situation would be improved, I would give 10 marks to the Hotel.

This was difficult to rate
The breakfast was great
The location is good

The price was very high the first day because of some surge pricing in Brussels- rest of the days were acceptable

The issues
The wifi is open just like any restaurant so you will need VPN software - they have a secure wifi for the staff and in took 3 days to advise me that I would not get access to it

There was a wifi repeater in room 114 behind the TV. It should have been in a hallway or elsewhere
There was some water damage on the walls
Bathtub was too high and hard to get into.
Glass door to the tub could only open one way because the tub was too high
Room configuration was strange and too narrow -maybe that is why we got our room early

Get a VPN before you travel and book early. Brussels seems to get full quickly

Modern hotel and convenient for public transport

I use regular hotels, based on convenient location (work or evenings out). It was my first stay there, owing to my regular hotels being full or too expensive that week, but was very close to the metro and the 71 bus, so that was good.

Staff were very friendly, all of the time.

Room was quite large, but I would have liked more desk space (very cramped) and additional power sockets. Not good when trying to use a laptop. wi-Fi was excellent.

I really appreciated the fridge and kettle (with supplies) in the room, and the free coffee downstairs.

The lift was fine, but the stairs where too narrow and sharply curved for me so I only used them once.

I am very tempted to stay again, but location means getting out of bed 25 minutes earlier for work, and that is a big ask!

The reception staffs were nice. There was a confusion about the tag provided in the room. I was looking for Do Not Disturb tag first night, couldn't find one so I left out the one provided on the bed. The tag says, \"The best carbon footprint is the one we don't emit. I participate by hanging the door tie on my bedroom door before 8 am.\" I wasn't able to realize it was supposed to be a \"please clean my room\" tag until I got disturbed 3 times in the day, and expected to change the towels on the second night but no one came to change. It was a misunderstanding but you could do better to make the door tie more clear.
Additionally, the hallway on ground floor was renovating, therefore some smells of paint and noise during the day was a little bit annoying.
