Overall it’s good but I was assigned to an empty locker with no key. For people who don’t have access to phone calls, there might be an issue with the checkin. Furthermore, there is no garbage disposal in the room. Others are good.

TERRIBLE AND WORST NIGHTMARE. Very noisy due to no sound proof and car traffic. Asked Expedia for refund but till date no reply. Oostel is ok to refund due to my valid reasons

cheapest place in town but with a reason

i do not recommend staying here to anyone, unless the only quality you need is “cheap”, but even then i would recommend staying elsewhere. the photo’s look nice but the place lacks all the charm and designers feel that you would expect from the advertisement. the room is big, but most of the space is unused. the bed is hardly any wider than a single bed, it is hard to sleep in it with two people. the rest of the furniture seems to be put randomly in the room. the led light in the bathroom hurts your eyes. the room is located on a street corner and filled all night with loud noises from the traffic, like accelerating motorcycles and mopeds, cars stopping and driving by. the sound insulation is non-existent, even with the windows closed. you hear people clearly talking outside and walking by. it is hard to fall asleep. we booked and contrary to the confirmation e-mail we had to call the hotel to receive the self check in instructions. parking instructions were missing so we parked in a parking nearby, but they didn’t accept foreign bank cards. just as the nice bakery next door. the owners have tried to make the place cheap and they succeeded in that. and even though they added some happy colors, the place could use some more love and better furniture to make it nice and charming. and some sound proofing to make it easier to fall asleep. cheap is nice, but this is too cheap.

Lovely Modern Hotel in City Centre

Overall we had a really lovely stay. Chreck-in/out was super smooth. The hotel is close to everything and in a perfect spot to see all the major attractions. Room was modern, cozy and clean. The ability to use the shared kitchen facilities is what really made this hotel stand out and was very helpful during our stay. Would stay here again if ever in Leuven!

Pretty good but slow and loud

I stayed here like three times and they never sent me any email in advance about self check in, and their whatsapp or text reply is quite slow so I had a hard time handling this. Even though its price, location, room are pretty good it near the road so little bit loud in the night.

Self checking in was not a problem, but finding heating/air conditioning not working after late checking in and no hotel staff was available to help is indeed a problem. Wish hotel staff did a better job making sure all room amenities were working before sending customers there.

Good location, comfy hostel

Easy access to city center and station but had troubles with self check-in so far. It was my second time staying here but they've never sent me any email about self check-in in advance.Besides, It's worth staying here with its price :) I'll gladly stay here again if I have to come to Leuven again!

Nice and clean but my room smelled BAD

This hotel was indeed very clean and comfortable and perfect for the price and cleanliness. However, my particular room smelled TERRIBLY, the sewer smell was so bad (bathroom door didn't go all the way down so the entire room smelled). I actually checked under the bed and behind the toilet to see if anybody played a bad joke and left poop there. Also there were a ton of mosquitos in the bathroom coming from somewhere. I even sent a message through hotels.com. but no reply. Unfortunately Leuven was pretty booked otherwise I would have moved out and request a refund. I honestly thought I didn't deserve to endure the excruciating smell for 5 days. Also some rooms were bigger and better layout then ours. I wouldn't complain if there hadn't been smell because it really was very clean and nice for the price. Kitchen on the second floor was very handily since I travelled with me son. Because of the smell and because there was nothing done about it unfortunately I can not give a better score.

Eén goed gelegen accommodatie op loopafstand van het station en het centrum en genoeg parkeergelegenheid. Mooi hotel concept. Zal er zeker nogmaals boeken.

Ottima sistemazione. Si accede alla struttura in autonomia tramite codice inviato via email. Stanza grande e molto luminosa con grandi porte finestre e accesso su terrazza. Molto pulito, letto comodo, mobili nuovi. All'esterno della stanza cucina completamente attrezzata con frigo, macchina caffè e bollitore, presenti anche le stoviglie e il necessario per lavare. Par heggio in zona a pagamento, ma noi abbiamo parcheggiato gratuitamente a circa 400 metri sotto al ponte davanti alla fabbrica Stella Artois. Il centro si raggiunge facilmente a piedi in 15-20 minuti.

Make sure you have the correct code and entry info

The room was fantastic. Very comfortable, great rooms, private bathroom, plenty of space, tv, windows with lots of light, bed so comfy, shared kitchen with good facilities and free coffee. Loved it. HOWEVER, I was sent the wrong code to the front door so and so wasted a long time outside unable to go inside with noone answering my phone calls or watsapps to the property. Also, I was not sent the code to be able to self check in and get my key once inside the front door. Great self check-in idea but someone needs to be attentive and the correct information MUST be sent or you're stuck outside and cannot enter. Finally someone helped me. It is unfortunate as this was a really great place to stay but if you cannot enter, it has zero stars!

Super !! Aanrader !

Het is een klein hotel ,maar alles is er .De kamers zijn functioneel ingericht en kraak proper !! (vind ik echt belangrijk ;-))Hebben een goede propere douche en wifi werkt ook erg goed .En een zeer goed bed .Verder heb je op de 1ste etage een keuken (gemeenschappelijk, maar wij waren er alleen ) waar je koffie en thee kan maken of iets eten (oven en potten en pannen en kookvuur ter beschikking) en ook een terras met tafel nog buiten.Aan de overkant een bakker waar je ook ontbijt kan halen .Het is er veilig en ik had een bepaalde wens voor een kamer en daar werd meer dan rekening mee gehouden ! Dus mede daardoor was mijn verblijf er echt schitterend :-D Ik dank de hoteluitbater hiervoor trouwens .Het ligt echt drie min van het station af en kort stukje van alle bezienswaardigheden en niet ver van de Dijle zelfs .Kortom prima verblijf gehad en bij toeval de poetsdame gezien en die was echt mega lief ook en behulpzaam .Kan er niets slechts in vinden behalve mss een paar gekken die er s nachts (denk zonder uitlaat )optrekken ,maar hieraan kan het hotel echt niks verhelpen vrees k . Er is ook nog een bushalte voor de deur dus ik zie echt niks dat ik meer kon wensen :-)

立地は最高でした。 チェックイン、チェックアウトも無人ですが、スムーズに出来ました。 前泊者の忘れ物と思われる物がいくつか残って居て、清掃は完璧とは言えませんでした。 タオル交換はなし。2泊の予約なら2泊分準備して欲しい。歯磨き用のコップもない。 フリーのコーヒーは機械が不調で使えず、 立地以外は褒める点がありません。
