Property could do with a bit of an update - clean carpets and Barth rooms a bit better so more hostel like but perfect location and staff and bar men very friendly

8/10 Very good

I was very surprised when I arrived to find this is a hostel as there is no indication in the description and I wouldn’t have booked had I known this was the case. It was clean and practical but not in the best area. We had to walk here at night from the train station and I didn’t feel particularly safe in this area as there were quite a few gangs hanging around. The room was very basic with no tea or coffee facilities and no remote control for the TV. Everything was clean but dated looking. The breakfast was very basic with not a lot to choose from. Staff were nice but I felt very out of place in a hostel where most of the clientele were large groups of young people.

8/10 Very good

We appreciated the early check in but there’s no AC in the room, which made it difficult to sleep. Not safe keeping the window open (it’s ground floor - someone can walk in!). Btw the lobby bar didn’t have a wine opener for us to enjoy our French wine in our room before we left. I had to walk to the Standard to get the bottle opened, which was awkward. Not penalizing them for that but odd.

The hotel is very good, spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable, the room was spotless, and the shower was excellent. However, the breakfast was very disappointing and not worth paying for. The reception staff deserves 4 stars.

Room was spacious, staff was excellent and helpful. Breakfast had heaps of options. The only downfall is that the hotel is located close to Gare du Nord station which is a red light area where thieves operate. Highly recommend to take a taxi. Apart from that, the hotel is excellent

6/10 Good

I feel like the reviews on Hotels.com aren’t to be trusted at all. I know this is a hotel turned hostel but it really shouldn’t be described as a hotel in any way. The bed was comfy and the location was great - that is the two positive things. Close to walk to train / bus station but also city centre and Tour&Taxis. The bathroom was really old and tatty and didn’t seem clean and I’m not even fussy. The plug in the sink was pushed in so the sink didn’t drain but filled up so I had to brush my teeth in the bath tub. I told reception about this 3 times and they fixed it the night before I left - not an emergency but annoying and inconvenient. Staff was nice enough most of them but the service again is not of hotel standard but the price of the ‘hotel’ is.

Quite run down hotel in need of renovation. But, clean, quiet and in a good location.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

Location of the hotel was perfect, close to train and station, but the good experience ends here. Reception staff were like robots, no welcome and not explanatory. Getting to the room gives the impression that the hotel needs a lift up. Dirty and market floor carpets. Checking in the room was no better; floor not cleaned properly, bathroom looked ok but not what we expected, no bath towels, only two hand towels. Bedsheets not changed, hair and creases from previous stays. We went to reception and they offered us just bedsheets and bath towels, and no help for replacement or cleaning. Bar staff was very good and helpful, he new the area and gave us some good tips to enjoy our trip in Brussels. We thought things were getting better but late at night while enjoying our drinks next to the kitchen something which we didn't expect appeared, putting that nicely it was "Jerry" likely not chased up by Tom. That's was awful. We didn't book breakfast so I can't comment about it, but you can imagine how that would have been.

The location of the property is close to the train station, very convenient to go around where I wanted to visit. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful, but one male staff at the food serving and bar area is not helpful or friendly, very obnoxious. I was very offended.

Staff and breakfast was good. Room was clean and big and with a good view. Very near to central Brussels. At night, walking from Station (North) to hostel was a little scary as it’s near the red light area
