I was sent to a second building of the Hotel Retro into the rook 502. Which is fine as a standard. But nobody warned me that there is no lift up to the 5th floor. It ends on the fourth floor then you have to walk up taking narrow wooden stairs with your bag.

Cheap. But the location of the hotel felt unsafe. Bathroom light wasnt working. No double lock on the doors made me feel uneasy about the hotel. Good for the price but not my ideal stay feeling unsafe

Delivers nicely what it promises
This is a very decent, modern-designed 3* hotel that is most often great value for money (i.e. under 100 euros per night). If one takes bigger double room (20 m2) then it is very comfortable. Staff is very pleasant and efficient - gave me free bottles of water after clubbing. Did not try their 15 euros breakfast. The only issue could be location that is not in the ideal neighborhood. But both metro and tram station (and bus 272 for airport) are just few metres away so you can easily spend your evenings in nicer areas. Otherwise, there is a very nice bar of nhow hotel across the road and great late night Le Snack Botanique around the corner....Several chain markets (Carrefour, Delhaize) are only couple of minutes walk.

Uphill from the train station. The hotel area felt safe, and walkable. Nice hotel, high off the floor showers though, if you are older or disabled not the best. Train station area a little sketchy.
