I found the hotel to have some great qualities but also a few drawbacks. The location is its most significant advantage, being close to public transport and within walking distance to the city center. The rooms were fantastic, clean, and comfortable, but unfortunately, mine seemed to have a lingering smell like cigarettes despite being a non-smoking room. The service, particularly housekeeping, was excellent. However, the location was a bit concerning after dark. The dining experience was pleasant at the adjoining restaurant, and the facilities were satisfactory.

Despite the hotel's advantageous location near the train and bus stations, my stay was marred by small, poorly soundproofed rooms with damp and dirty quilts. The service was lacking in housekeeping quality. The dining experience, though convenient in a nearby restaurant, was nothing extraordinary. The value for money was decent, given the fair price and convenient location.

I was truly disappointed with the rooms; they were horrible and definitely not as advertised. It took a lot of argument with the receptionist to secure a room change, which was a relief as it was the worse room we have ever seen. On the bright side, the location was very convenient, just a 7-minute walk to Midi station, making it perfect for our needs, although the rooms did not live up to expectations.

The hotel has a perfect location near Midi station, offering good free WiFi, hot water, and a powerful hairdryer, which are essential while traveling. The rooms were okay but lacked soundproofing, and the bathrooms could be better. However, they felt cramped for space at times. Close proximity to the Midi train station was convenient, yet the immediate surroundings were not as nice. Dining options were sufficient but could improve. Overall, a decent choice with some room for enhancement.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were somewhat disappointing with incomplete furnishings, blood stains on the bedroom wall, and small space, but I did find the bed comfortable. The noise from outside was bothersome, and the balcony couldn't be closed properly. However, the hotel is in a convenient location near Brussels Railway Midi Station. The dining experience was a hit or miss, varying from terrible to good depending on where I chose to eat.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was fantastic, just a few minutes away from the main Metro Station 'Gar de midi,' which was very convenient.
