Great location- close by to tram to get to Sint Porters train station and to walk to central bars and restaurants. Furnished in a modern style. Beds were comfortable and the place very spacious and quiet. One thing to note, the windows all have a film over them, so you cannot see out of the windows unless they are open. There were no views therefore.
