As soon as I arrived at this hotel, I wanted to leave. The woman who checked us in was also looking after the bar (you check in at the bar!) she was very unpleasant. Our room was dirty and the bathroom was even worse, with a white shower curtain, brown (stains) at the bottom! The noise from the street was... More

At arrival the staff of the hotel received us in a smoky bar. After 10 minutes waiting the staff responded very unfriendly (apparently we interrupted the chat). Once in the room, the room was messy and some dirt stains in the bath-room. Furthermore this hotel does not have a own parking.

This hotel needs to be classified as a real dump. Shabby, dirty, full of smoke and full of drunks at the bar that also serves as the check-in area. The location was superb, but I highly recommend you to book at the ibis hotel which is located less than 1 minute walk and has a great price/service ratio. By any... More

Small, central located in Leuven. It was really very close to the city center and all the restaurants and bars. My room (single) was rather small and basic but it's no problem if you don't need to spend a half of day there. Very clean. I was surprised to find a 2* hotel that makes your room daily and changes... More

I had a bad feeling about this hotel even before I came, and I should have trusted my gut instinct! I'm a very patient person, but this stay made me want to write the first ever negative review in my life! On arrival to the hotel, I was first unpleasantly surprised by where my room was located - on the... More

Pretty bad hotel in Leuven due to the staff behind the desk office. Made reservations weeks before without any problems. Day I arrived, room was available only for 1 day not 2 as stated in the reservation. Room had to be cleaned before I entered.

If there was a rating worse than terrible this hotel would fit into this category. 1. Arrived at hotel after booking months in advance with confirmation during Werchter Festival week-end for 3 nights. The hotel was overbooked (deliberately) and Serge the manager told us to find another hotel. After arguing he found us accomodation miles away and at double the... More
