Hotel le Dixseptième

Very good experience, very quiet and private. Great accommodation experience

We just spent two days in Brussels and stayed at the very well-reviewed Le Dixseptieme. Given the reviews, we were a bit disappointed in our room and stay. There were positives. The room was very spacious with a lovely sitting room and it also had a very large outdoor patio. The bed was quite comfortable. However, the bathroom was very disappointing. The toilet seat would not stay up, and as we are two men, it was really annoying for a four-star hotel. The toilet also did not seem to be properly bolted and wobbled and was pushed against the radiator. The shower head was small and didn't have any pressure as part of a large tub that you had to step into (not completely uncommon in Europe). When we check in, the hotel clerk gave us the idea that she needed to hurry firing information about the hotel at us while I was still filling out paperwork. The room is part of an annex and you have to exit the main area, take a few stairs outside, and then go up a very small elevator. That was workable and we were fortunate we didn't get any rain as that would have been a nuisance in the rain. We would not stay here again.
