well well

The area can get sketchy at night, but the location is excellent for strolling downtown or connecting to transportation. The rooms are very different - some are too claustrophobic and dark, while others are a good size and well lit. There are few outlets. Internet is available in the lobby free of charge, although there are often random people in there watching television. There is currently construction nextdoor, but it has not been very loud (surprisingly). Other guests are the main source of noise at night. The reception desk is very accommodating.

The hotel is quiet close to a black neighbourhood , not really in the city centre & the price quoted to me was including breakfast , when i spoke with the reception manager he said breakfast not included & i had to pay additional 7 euros which is not too fair , Overall the room was good with the bathroom , but the receptionist never spoke good english & not good warm welcome

A simple hotel that does what it says on the tin. Nothing fancy but very convenient for the Eurostar & Central Brussels. We stayed as a group that had popped over for a few Xmas beers & this place was spot on for us. Would I bring my wife? Unlikely but if you're on a budget this place ticks the boxes & was surprisingly comfortable & clean - despite some of the previous reviews.
