Check-in was quick, so I was happy. Extremely close to the train station and tracks. 1. Safe did not work, 2. Hot water pot was nasty…I meam there was still water and things floating in it. Disgusting. 3. When I went to the front desk about both things, the guy installed new batteries in the safe, and asked me to switch (not replace) a hot water kettle from another room. Which was unclean too. 4. Walls are no use to proof any sound from next door room. 5. Vibrations from trains 6. Bathroom was so small it’s not even funny. Never will I select this place again. But this time, I had no other reasonably priced choice in Brussels.

Extremely slippery and unsafe shower
Bathroom shower was missing one of its doors so water splashed outside the shower into the main bathroom floor area. Both the shower and bathroom floors are very slippery and as a result of this, I slipped and fell down while in the shower. I hit my rib on the shower handles which caused a bruise on my side.

Pas très bien entretenu, tous les meubles désuets, douche avec cernes de calcaire et tapis et serviette de douche tachées, mais il y avait de l’eau chaude et c’était proche de l’aéroport!

Very kind staff indeed,great location.Couldn’t be better right by Diegem station.Unfortunately due to the summer heat the room didn’t have air conditioning which was quite uncomfortable for me.Thf staff went out there way to help me though. It did actually say there was NOT air con at this property so it was my fault for not reading the description properly

We missed our flight so we chose this hotel for its airport shuttle service “for a small fee” and we thought it would be cheaper than getting taxis to and from the airport for our unexpected overnight stay. We were unable to find the hotel shuttle pick up area at the airport. We spoke on the phone several times with the hotel asking for help during this time and were told the driver had already returned back to the hotel and that we should just get a taxi. The taxi cost 15 euros and when we got to the hotel we learned the shuttle costs 20 euros. Given it’s proximity to the airport we expected a lot of noise from planes day and night but otherwise the room itself was fine. We asked for the hotel to call us a taxi for 8:30 the morning of our flight and when we got to reception at 8:30 they hadn’t called yet so it would be a 20 min wait for a taxi. We had missed our connecting flight out of Brussels the previous day due to long lines at passport control so we didn’t want to waste precious time on waiting for the taxi. We agreed to take the shuttle and paid 20 euros with card. However the man had accidentally typed in 200 euros and this wasn’t noticed until after the transaction went through. We waited about 10 more minutes for him to try to cancel the 200 euro transaction before he offered to pay the difference in cash, leaving us with 180 euros in cash when leaving Europe. Stay somewhere closer to the center, this place was not the convenience we thought it would be.

Great check-in staff. The two woman at the front desk were great. They very much helped me with the train schedule into the historic city center of Brussels. Very close to train station. 15 Euros from the airport to hotel. Nice clean room. Elevator. Great Wifi . Very clean room. Great airport shuttle service. I would re-book and return.

I was so very exhausted after a long day of traveling and as I laying in my bed another guest entered the room. He profusely apologized. I went downstairs for an explanation and assurance that this wouldn’t happen again and staff was no where to be found. Finally after waiting 15 minutes at the desk and trying to ring the broken bell, the desk clerk emerged from the restaurant. He admitted this was a mistake, though, this should have been avoided. Also the shower head holder was broken so I had to shower with one hand while holding the sprayer with the other. Washing hair this way isn’t fun.

The room was very modest, which was ok for my need. However, the bed and the bed sheet smelled. Clearly, someone had been smoking in the room. Had I arrived earlier or stayed longer, I would have certainly demanded another truly non-smoking room. A positive surprise was that the receptionist told me to be present throughout the night.

Not to recommend
My stay was very disappointing especially considering the price. The receptionist didn’t speak proper En, didn’t speak any Fr or Dutch so the communication was very difficult. The room was big bed a very uncomfortable bed and there was a very bad smell in the bathroom. There was free WiFi but very slow

An unannounced Wedding prevented any sleep
We were travelling by car to Switzerland from England. The guy at the reception was very friendly and apologized because there was a Turkish Wedding. We were neither informed of this prior to our stay and also assured the noise will cease within the hour. As it happened it went on until about 11pm and it was so so loud we couldn't sleep. Very disappointed as this was our first reward night but we'd rather have just slept in the car. We would stay here under normal circumstances as the price and facilities were right. However we were not informed of the wedding which totally ruined it for us.

Plane and train hotel
It is right next to the airport and train tracks. The room wasn't equipped with air conditions so we had to keep the windows open because it was hot. It was hard to fall asleep with the bright lights outside, the train and plane noise most of the night. The plus ,it's close to the airport and train station.

Cheap business hotel - needs some love.
Tired rooms, close to busy railway line and airport flight path. The hotel is unfortunately quite dated. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. New bar and restaurant area bring a positive to the overall feel with very pleasant staff.

Was so expensive £205 a room as Brussels was “sold out” and the room was old tatty and smelt of smoke although supposedly non smoking. Staff very nice. I would not recommend unless you were paying a quarter of that

Awful service and no communication
Arrived at the hotel at 9:30 pm to be told that my room wasn’t available, offered the basement staff quarters.... this was dismal and had no windows or shower etc. In the end they advised I book another hotel.. awful service and they knew they had problems with the rooms earlier in the day.. a call would help of been nice!

My room is close to a major train line and very loud trains pass every 15 minutes. Was informed by reception not to worry the trains finish at 22:00 and is now 24:20 and still passing through at high speeds and the problem is not only the terrible noice, it also vibrates when the trains pass through. A terrible experience.

Avoid staying here at all costs. The rooms are smelly, worn out. Non-functional locks on the door. You are better off choosing the Ibis close by.

The location and price are good. There was no bar/bath soap. Luckily I had some. There was a kettle but nothing one could make with hot water - no tea, or coffee. Also the fridge didn't work and I had cheese from France and beer so was out of luck with that.
