Verified traveller

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff in the early afternoon was friendly. When I checked in at 5, the new staff was less friendly. He could speak good English, barely enough to communicate. I feel like I was given commands and he repeated his commands if people didn’t follow. The staff next morning was friendly again. The bed linen given to me seemed clean but smelled like sour feet. My room had no lockers. There was only one iron case underneath the other bunk bed (shown in the photos).
No locker underneath my bed.
Only one locker for the other double deck bed.

Basic, zero frills, beware of renovations

This was an overnight stop and so was OK, but it's not a place for longer stays. The hotel was under renovation mid-June 2025 (which isn't mentioned on Hotels.com) and so it was a bit rough & ready with cracks in walls and workmen in the lifts etc. Rooms basic, beware no AC. It was cheap and seconds from station so did the job. Bring earplugs!

Had to go down to reception at 2am and 3.30am because students were talking loudly in corridors and knocking on each others doors. The hotel was fully booked, so could not be moved. Worst night ever.

The Hotel location is very bad and dangerous beside the fact that the receptionist is very rude, the hotel chain itself is disrespectful. Thanks to Expedia, they protected my rights.

This is hostel rather than a Hotel..

Check in was easy enough.. didn't realise it was a hostel rather than a hotel.. so my immediate reaction was to find another place to stay.. But we were given a room on the top floor.. The room was clean and comfortable with basic facilities with ensuite bathroom.. A little worn but seemed adequate for our one night stay.. It was quiet and the bed was comfortable and clean.. TV had English channels which was a bonus .. The location of the hotel was opposite the train station.. A few minutes walk from the zoo and about 15minutes walk to the centre of Antwerp.. Shops and restaurants nearby.. In the beginning we were apprehensive about staying but ended up enjoying our stay and absolutely loved its location.. No WiFi unfortunately having technical problems apparently.. Although parking is advertised as available but there is not.. Fortunately we have a blue badge and parked directly outside the hotel on the path Didn't receive any tickets for parking while we were there overnight.. So again a bonus...

Perfect location by the train station, zoo, and main strip. Breakfast was also good. Downsides were the cleanliness of the rooms. Exactly as I read in previous reviews.

I beleive the property is undergoing some renovations. The room was outdated and could tell furniture had been moved around and electric outlets were in odd palces in relation to beds. Bathroom door didn't close all the way but did lock. No AC so we opened windows at night, was comfortable and became mostly quiet eventually. Overall, for the price, after reading reviews I knew what to expect and wasn't disappointed. There were plenty of food options withing walking distance and Grand Centeal Statio. Right across the street. Parking was offsite and around 25 Euros a day. It was a comfortable enough stay, but if you're looking for anything close to fancy this isn't it. We would stay again though.
