Good deal

Decent hotel at a decent price and excellent location. The breakfast was very good.

decent expereince

we enjoyed our stay, the bathroom was nice however the room was a little smaller than expected but overall a decent experience. The hotel was well maintained and cute. The beds were not so comfortable. They have a wonderful breakfest that was included.

Mid level European style hotel

The entrance - lobby area of the hotel is quite attractive. The staff is pleasant. The location is good vis-a-vis the Grande Palace. The room was disappointing -- worn mattresses, small. The bathroom was French style, very nice. The elevators are horrible -- far too many users with only 3 small elevators; you can wait forever. If you are on a lower floor you will be using the stairs during "rush hour". The included breakfast is good; European style, not "Continental" style. My primary problem with the hotel (other than the bad beds)is street noise, late at night and in the very early hours of the morning. I ignored the other negative posts (re: noise)because I am from the New York City Metro area -- where we are very used to noise. I booked onto the 5th floor believing that we would be high enough not to be bothered by any street sounds. I was VERY wrong. From 1 AM to 3:30 AM we were the audience for far too many drunken song fests, all of which resonated through the room, even though the windows and drapes were all closed. (Gotta love the Brits and Aussies though... they sure know how to celebrate -- which says interesting things about the neighborhood.) Walking distance from both the Midi and Central train stations, and thus an easy 20 minute train ride to the airport. With better beds and noise control I'd use this hotel again. As is, nope. And I would NEVER bring my wife here....

Great room for the money

For Europe, this is a very nice hotel. Location is good, everything was clean, and the rooms are reasonably large for a European Hotel.

Good room for the money

The hotel is definately set up for tour groups. The first morning there we had to go elsewhere for breakfast because we couldn't get into the dining room with all the German, French, and Flemish tour groups.

great hotel

only 10 min walk to Grand Place. Very helpful staff.

Many noisy rooms

Rooms facing the street are very noisy. There is a lot of traffic and a club on the corner that plays loud music. When the drinking crowd leaves the club they are loud too.

Not what we expected---needs improvement

The rooms that we booked were not available and even though we got bigger accomadations, the room was a 5 minute up an elevator, over a bridge, through a winding hallway, the across a indoor parking lot before we got to our "suite". Both of the televisions did not work, there was no AC and the hot water for showers ran out. Bigger definetly did not mean better in this situation!!!
