The location was close to everything and right next door to an amazing Belgian restaurant & bar. The owners of the hotel sisters Marae & Sabine were both welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room itself was clean, spacious amd cosy. The decor is simple and a little on the dark side. My bed was comfortable and I liked the window looking out over the rooftops and street below.
There is no refrigerator in the room.
The spiral staircase is charming but a little precarious.

Location is great. Hotel staff friendly. Bed is comfortable. WiFi was good.
Very outdated. Water pressure is non existent in shower and the shower head was old and sprayed everywhere. Toilet seat was broke. The stairs, while not a deal breaker for our stay if you have any type of disability that does not allow you to walk up very steep spiral steps this hotel is not for you. 3 floors and if you have luggage bigger than a carry on it would be difficult to get luggge up. With the location it is bound to be noisey with tourists and that was also fine with us. But the morning of check out the city was doing some type of man hole construction and they start early and very loud with banging. Could not sleep in after a busy long day the day before.

Excellent location. You are staying in old building, and the entrance is through the tourist shop.
Rooms clean and comfortable.Quiet enough despite all the tourists outside.
The only difficulty is the stairs which are narrow, so if you have any issue climbing or have younger kids, you may get more tired. Owners seem very friendly and nice people.
Price a bit too expensive for the facilities but for the location it is probably justified.
Would be nice to have a water heater in the room.

Great location downtown. Within walking distance to so much.
There was a little mold in the bathroom shower specifically on the seams. It was also very noisy from people on the street late at night. I slept with ear plugs and it was fine. Just mentioning.

I rarely write reviews, but… this hotel is in a very busy area so noisy at night and early in the morning. The room is very small and the stairs are crazy steep. The room was clean, centrally located, the staff great. It served our needs but not for everyone.

The location in central Brussels
No air conditioning and very busy outside until 4AM. Also the outside lamp shone directly into our bed. The staircase is extremely narrow and difficult to manoeuvre a suitcase up/down.

I loved that it was central and well located … that it was clean and it had a lot of room for 1 person
Everything was great but the pillows were a bit flat

Location. Good bed. Shower was excellent.
No A/C but windows worked and there is a good fan. Stairway not for the less agile. It is noisy until late.

The location is very good, 15 min walking to train station. Near stores, restaurants, and tourist place.
When we have arrived, the windows was opened and a lot bugs flying in the room. as the room did not have air conditioning, we have to leaved a window opened, then we was able to ear the noise from the street.

The location is excellent, we could see the Mannekin Pis from our window! Room was very comfortable, and even had a little fridge in the room which was great. As is always the case with European places, there wasn't an elevator, but we knew that going in, so no issues for us.
Just something small: We had a small crack in the shower head which meant when it was used on full power it shot out the top of the cubicle.

Excellent location! The iconic pissing boy statue is a few steps away, as well as chocolate shops, cafes, restaurants, and souvenir shops.Great service, too. The room was cleaned everyday with supplies and towels replenished. I sent some messages through booking.com and the hotel responded quickly.
There's no lift and you access ypur room through a narrow, spiral staircase. So it will be a challenge if you have mobility problems or have heavy luggage.

Hotel la vielle lanterne was amazing.I really enjoyed it! Also, the location was fantastic being on the door step-literally- to Manneken Pis and the Grote Markt was down the the road or rue shall I say. IT WAS SPECTACULAR!!!! The staff were lovely and if you would like to get something from the gift shop,which is connected to the hotel.
The only thing I disliked was the stairs and the facilities.
