Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel is located very centrally in Leuven, and I stayed there many times in the past when it was Holiday Inn. Staff is very polite. The rooms are good with comfortable beds, and the breakfast equally good. However, the cleaning of the room was nearly non-existing. We had to ask two times over the 5 days stay just to get some clean towels. The cleaning of the room was not done more than one time during all the days.
