Wir konnten gut übernachten, schön ist aber anders.
Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut. Alles ist fußläufig zu erreichen. Es ist ein altes Gebäude und von außen nett anzusehen. In dem Familienzimmer war genug Platz für 4 Betten.

Cons:

Das Zimmer befand sich unterm Dach. Es war sehr heiß und dementsprechend auch die Temperaturen in dem Zimmer. Zimmer war alt. Zum Glück hatten wir 2 kleine Ventilatoren. Die Fenster im Zimmer und Bad konnte man öffnen. Da dort sehr viele Tauben waren, war es nicht sicher, ob die dort reinfliegen. Man hat versucht, mit Netzen die Tauben auf Abstand zu halten.

Heerlijk geslapen en ontbeten in dit mooie hotel dat ook nog eens op een toplocatie ligt, zeer tevre
Pros:

Ontbijt was ontzettend lekker met uitzicht op het station waar veel mensen van en naar toe lopen.
We hadden een kamer aan de voorzijde met een prachtig uitzicht op dat station.
De locatie is top want als je de hoek om gaat ben je meteen in het centrum met alle bezienswaardigheden.
Voor ons was het een tophotel waar we 2 nachten heerlijk hebben geslapen.

Cons:

Er was een beetje weinig opbergruimte voor onze kleding, er mag een extra plank in de kast gemaakt worden.

Teleurstellend
Pros:

ontbijt was top.
Locatie is prima.

Cons:

Kamer was niet klaar tegen inchecktijd.
De kamer was klein en pokkewarm ( 4de verdieping onder het dak )
De bedden zijn niet geschikt om in een hotel te zetten.
De matrassen zijn zo slecht dat we na één nacht vertrokken zijn ipv twee nachten.
Voor de 287 € voor 2 nachten met ontbijt verwacht je tenminste een degelijk bed !
Dit is het slechtste hotel waar ik ooit verbleven heb.
Nog een goede raad, ga niet verder op de foto's op de website !

Buena ubicación
Pros:

La situación es muy buena frente a la estación y muy cerca del centro

Cons:

Tuvimos que trasladarnos de habitación por una incidencia. Nos facilitaron otra habitación y en el traslado olvidamos unos zapatos. Le escribimos un mensaje a través de Booking y no nos contestó nadie. Lo comunicamos en recepción y no nos solucionaron el problema

Het ontbijt was in orde.

Cons:

Het ontbijt was in orde maar de tafels van de vorige gasten werden laat of niet afgeruimd.
De inrichting van het hotel is wat verouderd.

It was a very pleasant stay and served my needs perfectly giving me a great place to rest at night.
Pros:

The location was very convenient for accessing KU Leuven facilities and the train station. For those arriving by train, it is a perfect location and sights such as the Oude Markt and the major cathedrals are well within walking distance. The atmosphere of the surrounding square was perfect. The plaza the hotel overlooks offers a wonderful view from the hotel window, creating an overall pleasant atmosphere. The accommodations themselves were very clean and easy to use. I also very much loved the attached cafe with outdoor dining, making it a great place to sit for a drink or a bite to eat. I had gotten the steak and fries my first day and was blown away with how delicious it was. And the breakfast far exceeded my expectations each morning. Lastly, the entire staff was very friendly and happy to help, making the entire hotel feel welcoming.

Cons:

My particular room had the bathroom separated from the bedroom down the hall, and so while I did have a private bath, which was very clean and spacious, I did have to leave my bedroom to access it, which was inconvenient and troublesome at night. I wish slippers had been provided so that I didn't have to put on my shoes to go to the bathroom. The room's decor was also quite dated, and the bed was very small and stiff, making it hard to roll over at night. So while the view was phenomenal, the actual room quality itself was a bit below average. It was also quite hot given the heat wave and the lack of AC, though this was mitigated by the fact that the windows opened easily, letting in outside air, but I wish a larger fan had been provided.

Pros:

Ze hebben mij gratis een andere kamer aangeboden, die groter was met badkamer. En mocht daarbij zelfs nog kiezen welke kant van het straat de kamer was… Nogmaals dankjewel!

Not a great nights sleep
Pros:

I didn't like much about this hotel if I am being honest. The only plus is that it is a good location. No Air Con , Room was basic and shabby. Bed Lined was basic. Did not represent great value for money.

Cons:

No Air Con in the summer is a big issue, you get to hear a lot of noise late at night from the venues around the square.

good hotel near the station
Pros:

Excellent location, good breakfast. Shower of good size

Cons:

Very old rooms. Moquette in the room, very smelly bathroom (strong humidity even if we were at floor 4). Very small beds and with a bad mattress (you feel the big springs below you head)
