Good sized suite and fairly clean overall, aside from a few cobwebs. Easy to park on the street outside and bicycle storage on the property grounds.
The whole set up is a little weird. You can’t check in until 4pm even though I checked in online beforehand I couldn’t pick the key up from the keysafe before 4pm, unless I paid extra. Then they want you checked out by 10am the next day, it feels a bit stingey. Also, we couldn’t figure out what the place actually is, it felt like lots of the rooms were being used by Longterm tenants who smoke in the common areas and noisily got up for work early in the morning.

For the cheaper price, really good option. Fully equipped room with kitchen, TV and work space. Very good communication with the company and clear instructions and rules for everything. 10 minutes walk to the centre.
The quality and cleanliness of the room, which on the other hand, could be expected from there price.

For the money we pay it is a budget studio, so no high expectations on the facilities. However I could cook on my own and have a private bathroom, and the place was very clean and neat. The reception was open from 16h-18h daily so it is always good to plan to arrive between those times to have someone to talk to. Staff is very helpful and the cleaning service 1x week was also very nice!
I didn't like that some people were having phone calls and speaking loud after 22h (even if there is a sing and rules explicitly asking not to do so).
Also the shower was a bit clogged, but mainly is because of the design of the cheap plastic shower construction around it... it would usually flood part of the bathroom.

The location is excellent, the bed is good and the apartment is spacious
(1)cats are fed just outside our apartment (nr. 39) but the empty boxes are just left between the green. It was really dirty.
(2) we did not succeed in seeing the Belgian or Dutch television, we had more than 50 German and Austrian posts we are not interested in. There was no guide for TV and no one was available to help us.
(3) There is nothing in the bathroom to hang wet bath towels (the large ones). It seems that the hooks or the rack have been removed (holes in the wall).
(4) The threatening message that we were watched on our energy use and that we had to pay if we use too much (what is the criterion?) contrasted sharply with the fact that the heating did not function.
(5) There was no locking cap in the bath tub and the one in the sink of the kitchen was destroyed and could not be used. If the owner does not want that the customers take a bath, they could install a shower instead of a bath tub. This would give a better impression than to treat the customers in such a childish way.
(6) On arrival (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.) we were told in an unfriendly way that we were not supposed to open the safe (to find our key), although this was what we were instructed to do by the e-mail instruction sent to us.
(7) we like to read in bed, but there was only one single bedside lamp. In general the apartment is rather dark (one window looking upon a bush) and the lamps are too weak.

Please provide a manual for the electric cooking plate in each room. The cooking plate in each room is different and we didn’t know where the minimum and maximum settings are.

it is very well located
there were no shampoo or any kind of cream , and toothpaste in the bath. there were absolutely nothing in the house just a 2 sugars and 3 creamer and 3 tea bags 😶🫣 I believe with a couple of euros you can at least put some stuff in the flat .
the cleaning in my opinion could be better
the check in process was very smooth though the parking was not very easy to reach .
the flat smelled a bit in general we tried to keep the windows open for an hour to make it better
but in general was good for one night stay

The place garden and general place is really nice.
The lady who handles the emergency number was very impolite and mean. I lived in Leuven for 9 years, and never encountered such a rude person in the city. I have never been treated that way at a lodging place in my whole life. I had a problem with the booking, and -when I realised that- called to a number, but nobody picked up (as it was a bit late). I did receive a bunch of e-mails, but they were incredibly confusing and I was not sure of what I needed to do.
I arrived at the place hoping that someone could help me, and managed to call her to ask for help, and the "emergency number" lady was EXTREMELY rude and condescending. She was never willing to listen to what happened, and was super upset because "I made her come to the reception"... while -supposedly- she is there for that (either as an employee, or as a business owner: whatever she does)
She was being so, so mean to me, that I was on the verge of leaving the place with my luggage in the middle of the night, at a freezing temperature, and exploring other options, but she changed a bit her tone and rushed.
It is very, very important to understand how is the life of a business traveler. If this place cannot understand that people like me (who are traveling and can face issues with no bad intention in between), nor can improve both their CX (including customer service), please don't promote the place via on Booking.com. I am a pretty seasoned traveler and cannot understand how come I have my money to people who dared to treat someone they did to me. It is unacceptable, and -no matter what mistake I could have done, nor setbacks I faced- do not deserve to be scolded in such disgusting manner. I m not a 5 year old kid.
As I would say in Spanish: ¡qué gente más nefasta!

Location was great. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom provided all what was needed.
The reception was open on weird times, and even when it was supposed to be open, no-one was there. This was rather annoying. Next to that, the room was not very clean.
3.3
Incredibly friendly staff, rooms were above expectation for this price range.

It is only about 1.5km away from Leuven station and is near the edge of the ring.
I booked 11 nights of Business studio Twin through Booking.com and completed the online check-in. When I arrived, the receptionist told me there was a mistake and there was no Business studio Twin available that evening. I had to stay in a Budget studio Single for the first night and then move to a Business studio Twin the next day. I asked for a partial refund of the price difference through their website and recieved no response. New tea bags and coffee were not supplied through the entire stay.

the location
it was old and there wasn’t a lot of maintenance. and there was no toilet paper!
3.3
The receptionist was very rude. I came at 3pm after an international travelling. But she refused to checkin although checkin time is at 4pm. It was just one hour before. She was waiting for exactly 4 pm to check in however the room was ready and I was really feeling cold outside.
Another thing I want to add is there was no room service there and no breakfast. Although they charged me 420€ for 3 days but there was no any service there. The window was also completely broken and anyone could get into the room using the broken window. Overall I don’t feel it’s worth it. The location is also far from the central area.

Great location.
Amenities are a bit old.

There is a room like a studio with a full kitchen and toilet/bathroom and other facilities. The rooms are after a full renovation. Not so far is a good place for walking
The small problems like the bath cabin that isn't hermetical for water and has a cold/hot regulator that stole 15% of space of small bath cabin, the doors of kitchen furniture that can be opened on the wrong (non-comfort) side, the TV - tuner that hanging on cables, etc. These are zero-cost problems but not so clear why they can't be fixed
3.3
Very comfortable bed, spacious room with all comforts, 15-20' by foot from the center.
Easy to find, easy self check-in and check-out, quiet place.
There wasn't any soap to wash and no supermarket open at the time I arrived.

We wanted to rest and we did as we were accommodated in a quiet apt overlooking a nice garden. In fact, it is a bit like a small beginijenhof for which Leuven is famos🌞. The kitchenette is sufficiently equipped with cooking utensils , hence we could make ourselves own meals (sorry for activating a smoke detector 👎).
There is nothing to complain about.
