Budget Flats Antwerpen

The location was okay, but the apartment was very dirty and the cleaning was a complete disaster. There was a lot of outside noise, and the windows didn’t block it the way they should.

The location is okay, but the rest was a disaster. This was my third night here, and it was much worse than the last time. The room had a suffocating sewage-like stench, I think from the sewage system, and with the windows closed it was impossible to function. The owners seem to know about it, since the windows were open when I first entered, so you don’t notice the smell right away. I was put on the 5th floor, and the listing said there was an elevator, but it was broken. I later learned it had been out for a few days. The owners gave no warning in advance. When I complained, I was told I could have canceled if I didn’t like it. I’d picked up the keys from a locker around 10 pm, so finding somewhere else then would have been hard. The room was much dirtier than on my previous stay, there were drunken fights in the corridor, and there was no reception to report anything to.

The room itself was okay, but this turned into a bad stay. The area is well located, though it felt sketchy in the evening. Water leaked badly from both the sink and shower and flooded the bathroom. We complained, but it wasn’t fixed while we were there. Worst of all, they changed the building entry code without telling guests, and we got locked out in the middle of the night.

Well located, with simple but comfortable accommodation.
