A solid stay near Flanders Expo
convenient locationgood selectionfriendly staff
The hotel is conveniently located near the motorway. Breakfast offered a good selection of items. The staff was friendly, i appreciated their service.
The breakfast had many different options. It was so convenient, located near both a gas station and a burger king. The easy access to the road toward brugge was helpful. Staff were VERY friendly.
I noticed bad lighting from the tram to the hotel at night. The stairs lacked lights. The pathway was cut off by barriers, DISAPPOINTING.

A large car park is available arriving by car. A tram station provides access to the city centre, located a short walk away down a public footpath. The hotel currently undergoes refurbishment. It causes minimal disruption to the stay.
Rooms

The room had air conditioning AND a thermostat. The windows open fully, a huge plus. The rooms were newly renovated and very comfortable. The space available was very generous.

I saw one staff member helping children make pancakes. THAT WAS CHARMING. The staff at the front office was always very nice and helpful.
Location

The hotel is conveniently located for motorways. It makes travel between the coast and brussels easier. The hotel is outside the central parking zone, which simplifies parking. THE TRAM provided EASY access to the town center.

The restaurant staff were pleasant for dinner and breakfast. Gluten free bread was available upon request and that worked well.
Our room seemed quite old. One bedside lamp did not work and the safe was locked. the safe was not even fixed to anything so someone could just take it. it looked like the room had not been properly checked after the previous guest. It was substandard.
