    Lovely and quaint.

    With respect to the room, I did not enjoy having so many antiques on the counter below the TV or on the end tables on each side of the bed! The side tables were not very large and one had to be careful when putting something on the table. The end tables are a bit small and when there is a small lamp, some knickknacks, one has to be careful if putting a glass of water/bottle on the table as well.

    Travelling to this location was OK as Craves is situated in an area with pedestrian shopping--in other words, cars have a difficult time driving through as the area is a pedestrian mall! Also to go to see some of the main attractions there is a bit of a walk. The roads are not paved but cobblestone so walking would be an issue for some people. The room was small in comparison to some of the 'chain' hotels but it was quaint and decorated with lots of antiques. When we arrived we had to walk to the back of the restaurant/hotel to check in and were given a quieter room that did not face the front. The room was smaller than some of the bigger chain hotels but this only added to the charm. Breakfast was great and one had lots of choices from croissants and fresh buns/rolls/breads, cereal, yogurt, waffles, coffee, tea and juice. One could also order eggs, etc. if they wanted something hot.

    The bathroom was small for a family room and very tired looking. Initially we thought it wasn’t clean but it was actually just stained/worn in places. Perhaps due a renovation soon. Aircon wasn’t working which wasn’t ideal as it was hot this weekend, staff were informed and acted promptly to contact engineers but unfortunately it didn’t work for the duration of the stay.

    We couldn’t fault the location, almost everything we did was within walking distance of the hotel. Very good value for money based on the location alone! Supermarket on the hotel doorstep was handy too. Lovely decor and friendly staff.

    When I wanted to open the window for air, it didn’t open properly and left me little room to enter my bed. As well, there were limited towels (no wash cloths for soap).

    The people were so nice and friendly, the beds were very comfortable! Great location.

    The room had a few damaged pieces of furniture with some stains here and there but acceptable for sure. There was a discount for a museum that didn't work out because it expired 4 years ago, it should have been removed. There is no openable window, but great noise cancelling. There is no window in the toilet.

    I love the district where it is immersed. Great coffee shops, pubs, restaurants and supermarket next to it. It is close to the beautiful main square and amazing surroundings. The room was big and with a great bathroom. Nice desk, nice vibes and nice style overall. Good cleaning. Nice welcome basket and they let us do a late check out (1hr and half) without any problem.

    It's not so clear when you arrive where to go as you have to cross a restaurant to get to the hotel counter . Some staff member were not overly friendly. The bed are extremely soft, some member of our party could not sleep well due to that. You can hear the hallway pretty well in the rooms. The air dryer worked one out of 2 time.

    The rooms are gorgeous and clean. the amenities like the soaps and little plus feel luxurious. We also loved the bar in the hotel. The coktail and staff there were great

    The room was a bit dusty and could have been cleaner. The bathroom equipment felt a bit outdated, and there was an issue with water from the shower spilling out into the bathroom and even into the corridor. Our room was also quite small, which made it a little uncomfortable at times. While these things didn’t ruin our stay, I believe these areas could use some improvement for a more pleasant experience.

    The hotel is located in the city center, very close to major attractions, which made it incredibly convenient for sightseeing. The interior is beautiful and original, with a unique design that creates a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and attentive, providing excellent service. The breakfast was delicious and diverse, offering a wide range of options to start the day off right.

    Hallways are very dark…for young eyes no problem but for older people difficult to see everything.

    Location great! Room, bed, stillness, en suite bath all excellent. Can not comment on b’fast as we ate at the fabulous cafe and bakery very close to hotel. Restaurant was packed full every night but again, we ate elsewhere…so i have no idea but would guess it is excellent given the local people eating there.

    Facilities in the room were just a little lacking. Specifically limited storage space for clothing/suitcases etc, no iron and no opportunity to be able to make tea/coffee in the room (but this could be done at a station on the floor below). Would still choose to stay at the hotel again if in Brussels though.

    The location was excellent as was the decor of both the room and the hotel in general. Restaurant in the hotel offered an excellent breakfast and the evening meal there was exceptional.
