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.

The room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Staff was very helpful. The location was mixed. It's just a couple of minutes from transit stops and not too far from some good restaurants recommended by the staff. However, we felt a little bit uncomfortable walking from the hotel to the main street. It wasn't real bad, but it wasn't really good.
