Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the convenient location, with the Cathedral and Belfry being just a short walk away. Many appreciate the varied breakfast options. Rooms are sometimes described as smallish, and an in-room kettle might be useful for some, but the beds are generally considered comfortable. Underground parking is available, and some rooms, like number 239, are noted for being quiet.

I found the location to be very convenient, near many attractions. The breakfast had fresh oranges, which I appreciated. I thought the lobby area looked nice.
The shower took a very long time to warm up. I found the bathroom small. the bed was a bit squeaky during the night.

The location was great, I could walk everywhere! Breakfast had so many options. I loved making my own waffles. Staff were also cute!
My room was really small, like uncomfortably so. The bathroom was also small. The shower took a long time to warm up, though.

Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues

small bathroomdusty air conditioning
The bathroom was quite small. I nearly hit the mirror while washing my face. The air conditioning unit looked discolored with dust which wasn't very appealing. Hallway noise easily traveled into the room. It was disruptive when people passed by.
