Great hotel, also breakfast quite good. They could improve in the quality of the coffe and the street where the hotel is located is also not nice, even though it is in walking distance from most attractions in Brussels .

This hotel was super close to a metro station, and just a 15-minute walk from Brussels-Centraal and other cool spots. The staff was really nice and even gave us some great food recommendations. But honestly, the best part for me was the bed. It was so comfy, and after all that walking, it felt amazing to just crash in it and get some good rest.

Hotel was nice. Great to have water and coffee machines available at all times. Room was spacious and well maintained. However, the entrance of the hotel faced a small side street that looked like a back alley. Otherwise, our stay was pleasant.
