We didn't actual stay at the property. We had a medical issue and were unable to travel. We asked the property if they would consider a refund in full or part (and provided medical evidence of the reason), but to no avail. We understand that the booking was non-refundable, however, a show of good will due to the circumstances would have been appreciated.

Cozy, clean, and comfortable stay near Brussels city center I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was small but extremely cozy, clean, and well kept — a great balance between comfort and practicality. The décor felt warm and inviting, and although the space wasn’t large, it was thoughtfully designed. The bed was comfortable, but the only odd thing was that it had two single mattresses instead of one, so there was a slight dip toward the middle. It wasn’t a big problem, though — I still slept very well. The bathroom was modern and spotless, equipped with a good hair dryer and nice water pressure in the shower. The location is about 12–15 minutes’ walk from Brussels’ main tourist attractions, which made it easy to reach the city center while still being in a quiet and safe area. It’s perfect if you prefer staying slightly away from the busiest parts of town. The hotel is across from the Plaza Hotel, and while the area is safe, note that there are a few adult shops nearby — something to keep in mind for more conservative travelers. The hotel also has a nice cafeteria where you can enjoy breakfast or grab something to take away. The coffee and pastries were delicious, and it was convenient to have that option right on site. Overall, a cozy, clean, and comfortable place to stay — great value and a good choice if you want peace and convenience without being in the middle of all the crowds.

The staff was very helpful. Some noise if next door guests used water. Very centric, but some outdated sexshops in the area gave it a bit of ‘close to a station’ vibe. But I also get the impression that those shops don’t influence the atmosphere anymore.

Awesome Experience

This hotel was perfect, fairly quiet street but close to shopping and center square. My son and I were made to feel comfortable and the staff was very attentive. Lastly, the rooms were so quiet and able to sleep at night. Definitely would recommend this hotel!

Room was way too small but major issue was that they would not clean it without charging for it. Spent 3 nights there. 1 night would have been okay but not more. Entrance and elevator very shabby, old carpet worn floor of elevator. They claim to be new and all remodeled but did not see it. Staff downstairs was friendly. Breakfast which is extra was decent. Area of hotel is a bit seedy. Would not recommend. Much better stays elsewhere.
