A word of caution! (dirty and noisy)

While the listing photos were accurate and the beds provided were comfortable (please note: all single beds, no doubles), the overall experience at this property fell significantly short of expectations. Prior to arrival, we made several attempts to contact the property via email but received no response. Upon check-in, we found the apartment to be in an unclean condition. Although clean linens were supplied twice during our 17-day stay, this did not compensate for the initial lack of cleanliness or the other concerns we encountered. Noise was a major issue. For the first three nights, loud parties occurred regularly until 3–4 a.m., with music and doors slamming disturbing any possibility of rest. After a brief lull, another group arrived, and the disruptions resumed. Alarmingly, we discovered someone sleeping in the hallway, which further contributed to a sense of insecurity. The property did not feel safe. We made a point of taking all valuables with us whenever we left the flat, as we did not feel comfortable leaving anything behind. When we raised our concerns with management, we were told that such incidents are common at this location due to the absence of an on-site reception, although we were informed that their other properties do not experience these issues. Ultimately, we decided to leave early due to ongoing noise and safety concerns. No refund, compensation or apologies offered.

Decent apart-hotel for the price

A decent apart-hotel for a stay in Leuven. Easy check in, but other rooms were quite noisy which made it difficult to sleep. However, an affordable option for a business stay with more amenities in the room than the average hotel room.

Tatty - but OK if on a budget

The apartment was big, the sofa comfy, the WiFi good. But overall tatty. The bed was comfy, but it was two singles we had to push together - so not great for a couple. The bathroom was very dated, bit of mould etc. But shower good. We had a few electrical issues - cooker tripped out one evening, and bathroom lighting was archaic. Good central location. And good answers to questions we had on email. But guy who came to our door asking questions spoke no English at all. For every positive, there was a negative. Wouldn't stay again.

A spacious sute, but not very clean and only a partially working refrigerator. There is no reception on site and room cleaning costs extra. The elevator was cranky and tended to stop between floors, so nerve-wracking, but always worked in the end. The location is outstanding, with access to all central venues and very quite at night, but there was a children's daycare opposite with almost continuously crying children during the day - rather disturbing.

Brilliant location - these units could be great

These units are in desperate need of servicing but the location is only a few minutes walk from the historic center, so could be OK if just given a tiny bit of care. I would not recommend these units until basic repairs are made, broken lights and appliances repaired, exposed cabling boxed up, and the entrance and staircase cleaned up from litter and the main door repaired. I only rented two units, other units in the block may be in a better condition.

First of all, the air condition is broken. and I found the fan, which is also broken. On one bed it's frame is broken. The elevator was broken for several days, and it always smelled like gas. The room looks clean enough, but it smells mold or fungus. After spending about 2 weeks I could not put up with this smell anymore. I was afraid I would become sick, so I decided to change hotels on the way of my period I paied. I tried to call the number shown in the instruction, but it did not work at all. So I never recommend anybod to stay here, never ever. Do not make same mistake as I did !!!

No air con provided

The hotel is not so hard to be found but not so easy as well. Being big enough to host its occupants is fair, but the issue with it is that it hasn’t been equipped with air conditioning at all which makes it uncomfortable when temperatures rise above 28 degrees Celsius. We’ve been given some towels that were leaving traces of cloth on our skin, so cheap toilet necessities on that part were offered. Apart from the lack of any air con which is vital and most needed in summertime, it was a decent stay though for that peace of mind and personal comfort I would personally recommend a better place.

Traveled with family and small children, Business traveler
Liked: Cleanliness
I stayed here with my family and it was excellent value. Close to train station, middle of city centre to restaurants and shops. Room was clean and came with two bedrooms, large sitting and dining area with kitchenette including two burners, microwave, electric kettle and coffee maker with utensils and plates for 6. The biggest concern is that the suites are in need of redecoration as wallpaper was beginning to peel. There is a small lift to access rooms on upper floors and I found this more practical than using the stairs which are a tight and steep spiral. The suites are located in a small courtyard which was quiet, and you'll find a bicycle shop and what looked like a very nice fondue restaurant which always seemed buzzing with customers. The suites had good WiFi on all floors, and there is a small vending machine on the ground floor. TV options were catered more for French, German and Spanish speaking viewers, though there was CNN and sky news. The suites offered a late check out for €20 until 1300, rather than standard 10am, or €50 until 1700. You can also check in earlier, but I forgot the quoted price. Overall, I would happily stay here again with my family.
