When I first arrived at the hotel in the morning, the doors were locked and no lights were on. I then tried to call the hotel, but the number was disconnected.
I then went to the hotel in the afternoon and it was open. The man told me my reservation had been cancelled, and that there were no rooms available.
Meanwhile another man came into the hotel, and was informed the exact same thing.
I have a feeling this isn't a hotel, but a front for a credit card fraud scheme.

There have been some previous reviews that have negatively commented on the damp/mold smell in the stairwell and common areas. It is valid. Very much so. To the point your may wish you had not booked this place. The saving grace was the room. It did not smell, the paint was fresh and furnishings were adequate (rather spartan). The shared bath was ok until the 20 year old children showed up. They trashed it pretty good. Thankfully we were done before they got up. The common area/breakfast area was locked most of the time. Didn't look very special. Only saw a couple eating there once. We did 3-night stay. Location is fair. A couple of blocks from one of the main streets. A long walk to the Grand Place area. We are walkers/hikers so no issue for us. I would think most people would rather be closer to center of town. Taxis are no bargain in Brussels. Note: the B&B is near the midi train station. Was useful for us. Not sure it would be for non backpackers or independent travelers.

I've stayed in budget hotels all over Europe and this is by far the worst I have ever been in. To start, the area is a bit sketchy. The whole building stinks. The curtains are paper thin and there is an extremely bright light outside so it looks like daylight in your room at night. The walls are very thin so every time someone goes to the tiny shared bathroom you can hear everything and it sounds like they might as well be in your room. There was a cigarette burn in the bedding. Wear shoes because you may well get a splinter from the flooring. If you're looking for an upside to this place its relatively close to a metro station and about a 15 minute walk to the city center. The problem is that it is quite difficult to find, we had to ask 4 people where it was before we finally found the place and we did have a map. The beds are not as bad as some we have had. I would never stay here again even if it were half of the cheap price we paid.
