Nice to be close to airport. However shuttle hard to locate as it doesn’t follow the schedule posted on the site at the airport. We waited 40 min for it to show up (showed every 10-15 min). It stops at various hotels - which is fine - but didn’t use for morning of flight as I couldn’t be sure how long it would take to get there. Used an Uber for that. Breakfast is great with tons of variety. Bed and room comfortable and new.

Clean, delicious variety for breakfast which is included in stay. Only problem we had was smell of sewage which staff explained as possible backup of pipes, something not uncommon to Belgium given the way their system is built

Outstanding and Comfortable

I loved the convenient location of the hotel to the airport; airport shuttle was excellent. The room was spacious and quiet, and the bed was very comfortable. The restaurant offered a variety of meals and breakfast was outstanding.
