Decent place
Nice place to stay. The price was good, which made uk for the slightly out of town location. However, only 5 mins walk from Dampoort station. Room was an adequate size, big enough for 1 person and was clean.

Excellent customer service and breakfast.
Room was not too clean, however the staff immediately switched rooms and apologized for the inconvenience.
Overall, the experience at the Ibis hotel was pleasant. It is located within walking distance from the train station and easy to walk to the city center. I would recommend this hotel, and would choose it for future bookings.

Budget price great hotel
Great budget hotel just outside main city centre perfect ideal fir seeing the sights and a stone throw from train station. Rooms are small but are well maintained comfortable and clean great for price point. Checkin was simple easy and hassle free only feedback that i could give was you should be able to prebook parking with a code the street outside is full and costs so need to either have pre booking or place to temp park while you get access to carpark. Other than that small issue the hotel was ideal for the money and staff were spot on .
