It had some great qualities, and some not great qualities. A few of the staff members were as kind and helpful as they could be. The cleaning staff were kind and helpful, and a gentleman who worked the desk from afternoon/night 2, through the end of my stay, are the reasons I gave this property as many stars as I did. Otherwise, there were some not so helpful staff members who made me feel like a burden. Apparently there is a welcome drink at the lobby bar, so be sure to ask for that. It was not offered to me. Tea and coffee in the lobby, free, 24/7. Also a bar and room service. But, so convenient to 100’s of coffee shops and restaurants! The location can not be beat ! The rooms are extremely small, and literally, the loudest hotel I’ve ever stayed in in my life, anywhere… takes paper thin walls to a new level. Leuven is charming as can be, and again, the hotel has some great qualities.

Stayed 7 days; very walkable. Many cafes and small shops in area surrounding hotel! The floor we were on lost its AC during 80F weather, but took the offer to move to another floor to finish our stay. The staff especially Kaat, Erwan and Mo were very responsive and engaging. The coffee maker in the small lounge is the reason I’ll make another reservation; as no coffee making in rooms. Didn’t have the breakfast as I thought 15 euros was a bit high for a continental breakfast.

Great stay and good value!
We booked this with two hours notice, and received excellent service including directions to park our large van, five minutes walk away. You have to bear in mind this is a budget hotel, and as such we found it to be very good. There was a minor problem with the plumbing, which was dealt with efficiently and very very quickly. All the staff we dealt with were friendly, helpful and spoke. Excellent English.

The hotel was in nice location. It was easy to travel on foot to eateries and town square. I like European hotels because they are all you need when you travel. I am short so the bed and shower was fine, but probably alot of other Americans would have trouble with the size.

Location is perfect, staff is very good, prices are well adjusted, cleanliness is very good, too. I didn't like the lack of a tee pot or any amenities to help you prepare yourself a coffee in the room. Also they badly need better TV sets and cable service as it is too basic. And finally please use carpets in the rooms as you can hear THE WHOLE NIGHT what the neighbors above you are doing.

Ibis Leuven review of stay on 24th Sep 2019
The hotel was very conveniently located close to the historic centre of Leuven, easy to find, on a bus route and only about 15-20 mins stroll from Leuven Station. The staff and welcome was very warm and efficient. My room, while very clean and presentable, was very small with a tiny shower. here was some noise audible (but not excessive) from the adjacent lift and from the room next door.
