My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The room, though clean and well-presented, only had a plunge bath/tub with no shower, which was a bit inconvenient. The service was efficient and the staff was friendly and helpful, but the dining options were limited. The location, right next to the center on a lovely cobbled street, was excellent despite some minor flaws. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

The hotel is set at the top of two flights of narrow stairs, making it challenging with heavy luggage, but the lovely courtyard attached adds charm. The rooms, contrary to the appearance in pictures, are not as aged and dingy as expected.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, close to the Markt and all the lovely Bruges attractions, but the rooms were not as per advertised, old and run down. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, making the service quite enjoyable. The dining was good, with eggs prepared on the spot, but the facilities were lacking in some areas.

My stay at the hotel was delightful! The room, although a bit noisy in the morning due to its proximity to the stairs, was extremely large and charming with beautiful wooden floors and a very comfortable bed. The service was top-notch from the moment we arrived until we left; the staff went out of their way to be helpful and even took us personally to secure parking. The location was excellent, just a few yards from the square and old part of the city, making it easy to explore all the restaurants and bars in the area. The dining experience was good with plenty of continental choices, but could have included more hot food options. Overall, a very relaxing and chilled out hotel that I would definitely recommend and return to in the summer months.
