Co-located with a student residence, this hotel was fine for a quick, budget stay. Bare bones but had everything as advertised.

The room was "fine" but the parking lights didn't come on early in the morning, AND one of the elevators didn't work but wasn't marked out of order (we were stuck in the elevator for 19 minutes until someone forced the doors open), BOTH felt very unsafe!!! The hallway had a bad smell and the AC didn't work in my room. The "staff" were friendly, but they are staffed by college students who are not always available and couldn't "do" anything about the lights or elevator. This could be a great option for staying just outside of Brussels with easy access to transportation, but with the elevators being ify and the lights in the parking area not working I will not stay here again.

The property is a student residence with some other guests. I stayed one night but had four fire alarms as they were trying to cook, I believe. The reception desk sent emails, and that made the check-in easy.

Fab stay
Fabulous place on the outskirts of the city. Easy to get into the centre using the bus and tram. Dubious about it being student accommodation but didn’t need to worry. Great clear instructions and would highly recommend.

The room was spacious and we appreciated the grocery store below. Parking in the garage at 6 euros per night was very reasonable compared to other hotels in the Brussels area. No complaints - good value for the money.

I would definitely stay again!
The hotel is a pain to find from Alma metro station as you land in the middle of a university complex and google maps stops working like you were in the Bermuda Triangle 😂 Once you find it (took me nearly an hour with the help of a few students and some pigeon English but when you find it it’s a gem! Staff are friendly the room was amazing! Very large and had all you need for a self contained room! The only gripe is there is no kettle or coffee to go with the shiny espresso machine provided which in my mind was diabolical but then coffee is life! Although you are on the top floor of student accommodation they are either all swarm to silence after 8pm or you just can’t hear anyone at all it’s amazing. So if you don’t mind finding the hotel and then Alma metro station again when you leave and the lack of coffee and the shop that isn’t created but is advertised as being in the hotel it’s a fantastic place to stay!! Ps no bed bugs as sooooo many hotels have in Brussels!! Bonus 😂😂

Comfortable, convenient and great value.
We were a bit concerned when we checked in because the hotel is still being completed and there were many students about. We were pleasantly surprised by how quiet and comfortable our room was. The staff was very helpful, the area was great for running and strolling, and there are many public transportation options available close by. Thx hotel was close enough to NATO to be a great location, if you are going to be there.

Not so good. Room extremely dirty. Huge box in the corridor. Keys that did open rooms doors, etc Night staff was rude and gave incorrect information. Curtly informed us at 10.30pm that hotel DOES NOT provide drinking water bottle in rooms. Morning staff disputed her version but only when challenged that all my colleagues were provided water bottles. There was no where at that time of the night we could buy drinking water and forced to drink tap water.

Will be a nice apart-hotel once finished
The hotel is brand new. In fact, it's not even finished yet. Most of the interiors were still being worked on. My single room looked like it had just been released in a rush job. (I'm guessing the contractors are late and were clearly getting a little sloppy.) Once they are done (and if they can get their contractors to properly finish their work), it should be a very nice apartment hotel, with all the amenities for a longer stay (except for a safe, but maybe they will add that later?) One element of bad design that I hope they can still address is that there is are no outlets, light switches, or lights by the bed. This meant I had cables strung across the room to the bedside table, and promptly tripped on them as I went from the front door (where the only light switch is) to the bed in the dark. They need to, at minimum, add a small bedside lamp. The location is a little in the middle of nowhere if you are a tourist. I picked it for a short overnight stay before a morning flight since it was cheaper than airport hotels. It's about 3 Euro and 25 minutes by public bus to the airport. Unfortunately the morning of my flight the bus never showed up and I had to flag down a taxi. The hotel also offers a paid airport shuttle service. There is a metro station a 5-10 minute walk away that will take you directly into the city center, but it is a little hard to find (it's in the middle of a college campus) and the ticket machine may or may not accept your credit card or coins.

Dear Margaret, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay at ROXI Residence. As we truly believe our guests' experience can help us in our everyday improvement, your tips and feedback is very important for us. We are indeed a starting hotel in Brussels, that recently opened its doors. There are still some points to be improved and details to be finished. On daily base, we do our utmost best to give our guests' the best stay they can imagine and an experience to remember. The hotel is not located in the city center, but ideally located close to the airport, Saint-Luc hospital and the UCL Campus. Once again, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and we hope to have the chance to host you again at ROXI Residence. Best regards, Helene Operations manager at ROXI Residence

This will be a lovely hotel when it is finished but currently there are doors missing, wires hanging from the ceiling and no restaurant or shop, as advertised.

Appartement correct. Manque petite table de salon. Banquette très inconfortable. Lampe murale abîmée. Points positifs. Très bon emplacement bus très pratique. Petite supérette en bas de la résidence où le personnel est très agréable. Très bonne literie. Très calme. Et pour finir pour nous français manque de chaînes françaises.
