Satisfactory accommodations but small. A bit difficult to communicate with staff arranging arrival, parking, etc., very limited hours when staff is present to answer any questions.

Good stay, but hope you don’t face any issue
We stayed for a total of 4 nights and then another 2 nights. Our first stay was flawless, from check in to check out, with the room being really good. For our second stay of 2 nights, the elevator was broken and we were at 5th floor which was not at all comfortable. The person at the reception was kind to help us with our bag. Also for our second visit, the shower was broken with a leak and we could shower with a very slow flow. Because the reception is manned only during 3-8, we could not even complain to them about the shower. Overall it’s a decent place to live, just that because of resource constraints, if you face issues they won’t be resolved quickly.

This was a great property to stay at and convenient to everything. The lighting in the room could be brighter and my card would not work one day (I had a few issues getting ahold of someone to let me in) but the room was perfect with a little kitchen and lots of space to spread out. Very convenient to train and sites. Great spot that I would recommend.

Disappointed!
There was no communication back to me from the hotel for the access code in order to get into the hotel after 1100pm. I waited for over 4.5 hours and finally had no choice but to go get another hotel in the area otherwise I'd freeze to death outside. When I checked in to the other establishment, I finally received a new email from Getaway Studios after 1240 with the access code, but it was already too late!

Leuven is a wonderful town, full of young people, not far from Brussels. Location of apartment is great! Fully stocked with kitchen - microwave, dishes, refrigerator, all necessities! Clean, safe, even a few secured parking spaces. Really great for travelers! Reception hours are quite limited, but easy to reach by phone. Enjoy Leuven!!

In the heart of Leuven, within steps of restaurants, shops, all the sights. We had a useable kitchen and dining area for a family of 5, all sleeping in the same room. Bathroom was small but functional. Feels like an apartment hotel, with key card access. We used the limited underground parking - but everything was walkable. Not many cars in the city centre so quiet.

A very utilitarian, minimalist room. It should have been cleaner. All kinds of dust on the bedside table and under the bed, clearly visible. They only give you one face towel and one bath towel, and were flustered when I asked for an extra pair so I could have a bath mat towel and one for my hair (they gave them to me but first had to make me realize just how special a favor it was). Cleaning was extra. The location is very central and convenient, but the bar across the street was a bit loud at night. No air-conditioning. The entrance to the place is easily missed and not very nice. It's OK for a few nights.

Sofa bed instead of Double bed?
The first thing I would say is “check your booking”! We booked a studio apartment and didn’t check properly. We were therefore surprised to find that the set up was a single bed with a double sofa bed. I simply can’t understand why this is the case? I cannot imagine that anyone would want a single bed when there is ample space for a double bed. The sofa bed is not particularly comfortable, particularly after a demanding day at Rock Werchter. That said, the apartment is clean, bright and nicely decorated. The bathroom is well equipped as is the apartment in general. There is a fridge, two burner hob and microwave if you want to carry out minor food preparation and cooking. The apartment is perfectly located for the Station (10 minute walk). Grote Markt (5 minutes walk) and Oude Markt (8-10 minute walk). I would recommend Getaway but still don’t understand why there isn’t a double bed?

We paid a difference for a double bed room, to find out we had to pull two single beds together to make it a double bed which we did not, not to expose the dirt and dust on the wall sides of the beds. The single beds are far from being a regular single bed size, they are very narrow, and will give you a back pain. Same goes for the cheap pillows, I woke up every morning with a neck pain. The cleanliness is questionable, windows had water marks, dishes and cabinet doors had grime. There were cigarette butts outside the windows. There was also an offending smell on the corridor outside of our room all throughout our stay. Self parking was advertised as 10 euros a day but during check in we found out that it in fact was 15 euros. The location was very good, but considering how small Leuven is almost every competition is nearby or at a reasonable walking distance.

Hotel room was fine. You’re really on your own with the lobby only being staffed from 3pm-8pm. Biggest complaint was the noise. If your a light sleeper you may want to find some place else. I heard every noise from the street below and from inside the hallway. Seems to be a popular bar with the college group that is close by and thus very loud atmosphere
