The hotel was very quiet, fulfilling my need for a peaceful stay, although it lacked ventilation or air conditioning. The room came with a comfortable bed, cable TV, fridge, kitchenette, and even a mini dishwasher. The service was super helpful, always proactive, and with a constant friendly smile. The location was excellent, central yet quiet, with easy access and friendly staff, making it a perfect spot, especially during winter with a Christmas market nearby. The dining was a bit on the expensive side and not worth the price. Overall, a pleasant experience marred only by the lack of proper room ventilation.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms felt like converted apartments, very clean and spacious with all the necessary amenities, but the temperature was hard to manage. The service was friendly but lacked attention to details like proper cleaning. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Brussels with plenty of dining options nearby. The dining experience was a bit overpriced for what was offered. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

The service was a mix of good and bad experiences, with one staff member going above and beyond but others being quite rude.
