The front desk was fine checking in. Although they did give me information that was misleading and not correct. I had an upgrade? Access to a Club Lounge? Weird...you didn't mention that. Oh wait, the Lounge is closed. And the restaurant, oh yeah, closed too - relocated into a weird corner in the Lobby bar. Internet, it's free. Would I enter any personal information on it (thinking it was secure and I might get my identity stolen)? Absolutely not. Want to print a boarding pass? Not as easy as it sounds! And don't look to Guest Services to help - because they don't know anything about it. Room? Outdated? Absolutely.

The rooms are a bit dated, but our room was very spacious and the bathroom had double sinks and a separate makeup/hairstyling area. Our big problem was the Air Conditioning. It has just been unseasonably hot, but the AC wasn't going below 24.5 (about 76 degrees). When I called down, the first person said to give it time and she would send a fan up. When I called down a few hours later, the person said she and her colleague would change the settings on their end and set the thermostat to 20 (68 degrees). That evening, it's still around 24 degrees, so we opened the windows and put the fan in one of the windows. It helped cool the room down, but also let in tons of noise and light; bad for sleeping. The next day, when none of this was resolved, I asked to speak to a manager and explained to her the situation. She assured me that she would have a technician look at it and monitor to ensure that it is working properly. By the time we returned later, our room was around 22 (71.6; not what I wanted, but much more tolerable). Again, I find it annoying that none of the other people actually worked to help me, but I am glad that someone did so I can get some sleep. It's definitely not a luxury hotel, as far as service goes, but it served our purposes well in Brussels. If you stay here and need something, I suggest going to the manager. And, to the manager(s), I suggest retraining your employees to be honest with customers about what they can and will do.

The shuttle is provided free to guests and runs every 30 minutes starting at 4am in the morning. It's an actual bus and not a van. There are racks available for luggage storage. Walking in, it's clean and smells nice. The staff was super efficient and got me checked in within a few minutes of me walking through the door. There is a restaurant on site, but I can't comment as we did not dine there. I had a queen sized bed room and it's enough for 2 people. The room has a fridge and a coffee maker. Though, I didn't try using their coffee maker because I don't know when's the last time it was cleaned out. There's a pretty big safe in the closet. The bathroom has a tub and a shower. Though, the shower itself is a little tight, but manageable. Bed was comfy, but it did get hot during the night and we set the temp all the way down, but that didn't cool the room down enough. Bathroom is big enough and not cramped at all. A couple of caveats is that this place is about 30 minutes away from the city center. You can either walk to the bus stop, take the shuttle back to the airport and take the subway or use Uber. We decided to use Uber as that comes out to about $35 vs, $11 one way using the subway and will probably take at least an hour to get to the city center. The's only 1 restaurant on site and I didn't see anything else in the area. There was no store that I was able to see. There's also public transportation right outside if you happen to miss your shuttle to the airport.

The hotel is located in a very good, central location, just a block from the main shopping Nerve St. It is also within a walking distance (10-15 min) walk from Place Makt as well as Nord Brussels Train Station, making it a very good hotel as a base for traveling around the area and/or to the airport. There also have free WiFi as well.

The advantage to Hotel Max is that it is really good value for money. You don't pay all that much (especially compared to some of the nearby properties), but you get a very clean room that is perfectly reasonable. I always say they should name it the "Hotel Min" instead of the Hotel Max because you're getting the minimum that you require. But that's exactly the point. If you don't need much more than a shower and a bed, then this is perfect. It's near shopping, transport, and restaurants. It's fairly easy to check in and out using the automated kiosks. You will pay extra for absolutely everything, but that's the principle. You're not allowed to be annoyed by that because it's explicitly stated up front. I get annoyed when I pay 3 times as much to stay at the Ritz Carlton and then they want to charge me €14.95 per day for Internet. But when you stay at a place like Max, where they tell you up front that you'll pay for your amenities, the €5 per day for Internet doesn't seem like a big deal. Especially given what I'm saving in the overall room rate. I come to Brussels fairly often and stay for a few days at a time. If I'm staying for a week, there are some nice aparthotels in the same area that will supply dishes, a kitchen, a microwave and so on. And there's a grocery store quite close too. Paying a little extra on the room, then saving by making meals in the room is a healthy way to travel. But if I have to pop into the Rogier or De Brouckere part of Brussels for just a day or two, Max is my go-to hotel.

The hotel wasn't luxurious, but the room was a decent size -- much better than XO Hotel Inner in Amsterdam. However, like nearly every hotel in Europe, the room was too warm, and we had to keep the windows open at all times to get any relief. No major complaints, aside from the area being quite noisy, and one night, there were people outside blasting their music late into the night. No noise from other rooms, though. The hotel had a small bar and "restaurant" that sold a few basic low quality items, such as pizza -- a lifesaver if you were starving and not picky, but not a place for a meal. They did have a decent breakfast buffet though, although it did cost something like €15. Not cheap, but at least the food was pretty good quality (unlike the awful breakfast at XO Hotel Inner!). There weren't laundry facilities in the hotel, but they were close to a laundromat, which we very much needed in the middle of a three week trip. Overall, a decent hotel for a good price.

Grand Place is not that far, 5-10 minute walk depending on your pace. Bathroom - Modern, some toiletries provided in small packets. Hand towels and bath towels provided as well. Room - Slightly dingy, carpet a bit dirty, smelled smokey/old. Noise - Can be bad if the other patrons are loud. BED - BAD. Not a lot of covers and ONE small pillow. My biggest complaint. Uncomfortable. They do have a locked baggage room which is nice if you arrive before the 3PM checkin. The room I was in did have a safe large enough for a medium sized laptop and other electronics which was nice. A very small TV was provided as well. They did have water-heat radiators which made controlling the temperature a bit challenging. Nice windows with good views as well. Breakfast was provided....for 8 Euros. But you can go to a cafe near by and get something delicious for cheaper. Would I stay here again? Only if it was the best deal around, but it might almost be worth paying more to get a nicer bed.

This rating may partially reflect the misaligned of the hotel experience to my higher expectations of a Design Hotel by Marriott. The staff was friendly. When we arrived a bit early, they offered to watch our stuff while we grabbed lunch. They mentioned a room should be available early as they were not too booked. We returned in about 2 hours just to check if a room might be ready but were prepared to continue to explore if not. They said the room was cleaned and just pending inspection. Foolishly we waited, it ended up being over an hour and we were now checking in after standard check in time. Frustrating but it happens. The room was spacious but had a few minor issues a hotel of this level should not. They bathroom door would not close all the way, and while spacious, the room is still cozy and without a fully shut door, one could hear, well, everything happening in the bathroom. Further, the sink would not drain unless the plug thing in the middle was fully removed from the sink. These issues were reported but we weren't expecting they be resolved before check out (and they weren't). I was on vacation but needed to check in on a few work items. My biggest annoyance was that their wifi was spotty and best and kept dropping in and out. I ended up having to take my laptop out of the hotel to send a few important emails. Disappointing. Location wise, it's great. Easy walk to everything. Tenish minutes to the train station. In the heart of downtown without being subject to all the downtown craziness. As the goal was to minimize time in room, the location made it easy.
