    Pillows were a little flat.

    Just behind the Eurostar station very easy to find and great for travel. Basic hotel but nothing wrong with that. Was allowed to check in 2 hours early with no extra cost which was great. Reception staff friendly and helpful.

    The area was on the rough side of the city, the hotel was furnished sparsely and without charme or warmth. It didn't serve breakfast, which is okay as the station with a lot of bakeries was near. The large wardrobe only had one and a half hanger. The carpet between the reception and the lift was the dirtiest I have ever seen. I wanted to stay for only a night and not far away from the Eurostar stop, otherwise I would have backed right out.

    It was very close to the Eurostar station. The staff was very friendly, the beds comfortable and the rooms very large. The shower was working and the cleanliness in the rooms was good.

    The bathroom had rusty bits... The street was noisy and the road did not feel super safe (generally the area around Gare du Midi is not great). Useful if you have an early morning train.

    Room was basic but clean. Bed was comfortable enough.

    The curtains were improper, one of the lamp was not working and the main light was constantly blinking. There were also no handwash at all. There was only one small soap for two people. Luckily we had our stuff and our stay was literally only for 10 hous so it wasn't that bad.

    The location is very good. It is nearby Brussels Midi Station. It has 24 hr desk which was really helpful as we reached pretty late in the night. The pretty was also really comfortable. They did let us leave our luggage which was really helpful.

    This has had to be the loudest hotel I have ever stayed in. Sirens, all night long, and guests who blasted music and smoked substances throughout the night as well. On top of that, because the halls were large and mostly concrete/tile, ever noise produced echoed off the walls and made it worse. The shower was also disgusting. Mold and mildew could be seen lining the space between the shower door rail and the bottom of the shower.

    The room was decent. The shower had hot water and fresh towels and blankets were provided.

    I usually book hostel but decided on hotel rooms so that I could have a quieter stay. Soundproofing of the room however is terrible. Luckily there isnt any rowdy guests at midnight during my stay.

    i like how close it is to the train station.

    The decor is dated, there is no artwork anywhere and the bedside lamps didn’t work. Not the hotels fault, but the street outside is horrifically noisy and feels dangerous. Someone broke up a wardrobe on the pavement outside at 2am.

    Room was clean

    No breakfast option. You can get one at Midi station which is close. Location in the night can be shady. As written above. Old furnite, but who cares. Bed was good and clean. No ironing machine at the room.

    Close to the Midi station. Which is good for connection, but its not a nice part of the city and I would be a women wouldnt like to walk around in the night. Room was big and even it was old, it was clean. 24/7 reception Good value for the money

    When I took a shower at around 10PM, there was no warm water but when I woke up at around 5am it was back. I'm not sure the reason but it was very inconvenient.... Isolation is not so good because we can perfectly hear the people staying next to our room. The guy on the night shift at the reception is not friendly.

    The location is near the train station of Brussels South. Very convenient to catch the morning train or bus. Good for one night stay

    could have been better maintained but things are NOT as bad as written in reviews, in the end, this is not a 5-star hotel, fine for staying couple of nights.

    whatever is written in reviews about this hotel is TRUE, wont be adding more except staff is very nice and helpful, location is fine, rooms are warm!
