“Being so close to the main square means stepping right into the heart of Bruges; the location is a definite highlight. Rooms on the square can be surprisingly quiet, and a comfortable bed is a plus after a day exploring. While some may miss amenities like a fridge or elevator, the attentive staff and good breakfast contribute to a positive stay.”

The location is very central to everything. The breakfast had a good selection of items. The staff was friendly and ready to help.

The room was smaller that what I expected. There was noise coming from other rooms. The bathroom needed a better cleaning. I saw hair on the floor.
