Terrible experience due to an aggressive and unprofessional host.
Cons:

Before booking, I would strongly recommend reading the other reviews about this organisation on Google, https://maps.app.goo.gl/4dL65HqMBmFavxC57. It appears to be the same organisation operating multiple properties in Belgium. Review on google shows similair experiences as ours.

We booked two apartments for a group of six. During the evening we were chatting and had some music on. We understand that there may have been complaints, especially since the apartments seem poorly insulated (as also mentioned in other reviews).

However, the way this situation was handled was completely disproportionate. Around 23:00 Dante arrived shouting and immediately escalated the situation. We were not given any opportunity to lower the noise or adjust our behaviour. Communication was not possible, and we were forced to leave the property immediately in a very aggressive manner, including verbal abuse and physical contact. The situation felt unsafe to the point that we called the police.

After leaving, we had to find alternative accommodation in the middle of the night. To make matters worse, the owner contacted the new hotel and made false accusations about us (claiming we damaged the property and were using drugs), which is completely untrue. We left the apartment in good condition.

The next day, the owner acknowledged by phone that his reaction was not appropriate and mentioned compensation. However, when contacting the property again, they denied any knowledge of the booking and the situation.

Based on this experience, we cannot recommend this accommodation.

Top verblijf!
Pros:

Perfecte locatie, alles wat je nodig hebt aanwezig en schoon. Fijne bedden.

Cons:

Als je langer dan de in- en uitcheck tijd verblijft in de stad kun je beter een parkeerplek reserveren in de openbare parkeergarage in plaats van een parkeerplaats bijboeken. Ik had het bijgeboekt maar was uiteindelijk veel goedkoper uit met een reservering voor 48 uur in de garage.

Te duur en niet voor mensen die rust zoeken of willen uitslapen (of een brede auto hebben).
Pros:

Goede locatie, mooie kamer

Cons:

Geen gordijnen (enkel lamellen) dus quasi geen verduistering. Veel lawaai, zowel van op straat als van de andere kamers en de gang. Parking ontzettend smalle inrit en nog smallere parkeerplaatsen (mocht duidelijk vermeld worden voor de boeking!). Bovendien was de poort aan de inrit kapot dus iedereen kon binnen op de parking.

Pros:

If you do not want to experience maximum discomfort, you should definitely avoid staying at this hotel.

We checked into the hotel with our child, and at 00:30 at night the hotel manager burst into our room and started shouting that we had to leave. The reason was simply that we had a child with us.

The manager forced his way into our room, yelling and using offensive language. We were genuinely frightened, as he appeared aggressive and unstable. Unfortunately, we had no choice but to leave and move to another place.

Booking.com, you should carefully monitor the partners you work with. This hotel does not meet 4-star standards in any way. The staff are aggressive, unprofessional, and behave in a way that threatens guests’ safety.

We also had the impression that the manager held extremist views. After learning that we are from Ukraine, he wished us defeat and death. People like this should not be allowed to provide hospitality services.

We felt unsafe and feared for our lives. After escaping missile attacks in our home country, to then be told to die is absolutely horrifying.

Die Wohnung ist groß und liegt sehr zentral . Es ist alles gut zu Fuß zu erreichen und der Blick aus dem Fenster über die Dächer hinweg auf die Kathedrale ist wunderschön.
