Well appointed room in the centre of town. the Stadhuis and St Peter’s church is all within walking distance. Stayed for 1 night. Only issue just with the strength of the hotel Wi-Fi, but that could be because the room that was assigned is in the fringe of the hotel. But in any case, if I came back to Leuven, I would stay here again.
