when we arrived, at 7 pm, there was no receptionist. we were given a different room than what had been required and the person in charge (waitress) couldn't help much as there was no receptionist available. Given that the hotel for that day was fully booked, they should have a person in charge to support customers.

An old hotel, although clean and all worked well. A great stay for the money. Across the road from the railway station, and about a 15 minute walk to the old town. A good breakfast, good shower, no safe in the room.

We enjoyed our stay at this property overall. The room was small but that didn’t matter as we were not there to spend much time in the room. It was a very clean property with breakfast included which was delicious. The 2 points that I’d say did not meet our expectations would be the pillows as the 2 they provided were very small and did not provide the support we were used to and the unavailability of a fan from the hotel. Due to the buildings age it didn’t have any air conditioning which was understandable but the window did not provide any air circulation and the hotel did not have fans available so we had to go buy one or we would not have slept. Now that is a personal preference so it’s not the hotels fault. Overall we would stay there again, the patio options are endless in the area and the train is extremely close for easy access to anywhere you want to go.

The hotel is a typical European hotel, smaller rooms, but kept up nicely. Staff at reception, housekeeping, breakfast and bar/restaurant were excellent, friendly and helpful. Location in Leuven is fantastic. You can walk everywhere from the hotel within 20 minutes. Very convenient to train station and taxi stand if needed. Restaurants and very close. A very nice 10 day visit.
