Hotel renovado a 15 minutos del centro
Hotel renovado en edificio antiguo y barrio de mala fama, junto a la estación, da un poco de miedo por la gente que hay por la calle, pero no tuvimos ningún problema. El hotel cuenta con instalaciones renovadas, la cama era nueva y cómoda, y nos dieron una habitación de interior, por tanto no había ruidos de la calle y pudimos descansar. El personal fue amable y atento en todo momento.

Great bed and good shower
Great hotel. Clean room. Right in front of mid station. There’s some intense construction work in the area but it was quiet morning and night and the access to the hotel wasn’t compromised either. I’d recommend and go back to this hotel.

Consigliato per famiglia
Ottima posizione vicino alla stazione Sud/Midi, comodo per gli spostamenti con i mezzi ed anche per andare a piedi verso il centro. Personale gentile e disponibile e struttura molto pulita ed ordinata. Colazione buona qualità/prezzo se confrontata con i prezzi della città

The room was basic, but OK. No airconditioning, only a fan standing on the bedside table. The room was therefore very hot.
Breakfast was very limited (no buffet) but it was enough to start the day on.

El hotel bastante bien, la verdad. Por poner una pega, la almohada era demasiado baja y la zona quizás no es muy segura, pero nada exagerado.

Great value, location and cleanliness
For the price, this hotel is superb. Very clean. Decent location (10 minutes walk to Grand Place). Helpful staff. I could be very picky about just a couple of things, but nothing crucial considering how reasonable the cost is. Great hotel.

Budget Hotel
The hotel is in the basic budget range. It is clean and convenient for the train station. The actual area is run down.
