The rooms, although decorated nicely and spacious, come at an extra cost to enjoy. The location offers convenience but might not be the easiest for everyone. The service, while helpful in some aspects like sorting out issues, can be unfriendly and uninterested at times.

I was quite disappointed with the room as it faced towards the inner courtyard of an old typical Flemish red-brick farmhouse, not even well-aired. However, the room was big and spacious, which was a plus point. The service was a mix of friendly and unfriendly experiences, with some staff being very accommodating while others seemed disinterested and difficult. The location was excellent for exploring the old city and enjoying lovely nearby restaurants. The dining experience was average, nothing memorable, and missing some fresh fruit options. Overall, the facilities were decent.

My stay at the hotel was great! The rooms were spacious, clean, with good bathrooms, but I did miss having tea/coffee-making facilities, which seems to be a common theme in Belgium. The property was very clean, offered a good breakfast, and the bed was super comfy.

The hotel offers pleasant rooms, but falls short for the price point. The service, while friendly, has room for improvement with potential language barriers.

The hotel rooms are huge, well-equipped, and centered around a historic courtyard in a barn conversion. They are good-sized and clean with nice bathrooms, but unfortunately, there are no tea/coffee making facilities, which seems to be a common theme in Belgium. The service is friendly, with a touch of rudeness from a receptionist pressuring to buy a drink. The location, a bit out of town, is comfortable and near the Arenberg castle and park. The dining experience, although not memorable, offers good options. Overall, a great place to stay with room for improvement in service and dining.

The hotel had spacious rooms with a special style, perfect for those who enjoy suburb areas. The service was exceptional, providing a crib without any hassle, in a charming period building atmosphere. The location was convenient, close to the university and a half-hour walk to the center, with an onsite restaurant that served quality food. Dining was traditional European with organic products but on the small side. The hotel had lovely views along a small river.

The hotel offered spacious and character-filled rooms with views over the park and courtyard, making it a great choice for families. The location, on the outskirts but close to the university, was convenient, although some furnishings were worn-out.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, the rooms were spacious and clean, although lacking a cozy feel, giving off somewhat of a container-like vibe. On the other hand, the service was a bit inconsistent, with the departure receptionist being a complete contrast to the helpful and friendly staff who eventually supplied us with a crib without us having to chase it up. The location was convenient, especially for the university, but the dining experience left something to be desired.
