I'm here for one night and inferring from the above, I booked the best suite in the place. Based on that experience so far, here are the plusses and minuses:
Plusses: Location, location, location, if you have a morning departure on Thalys, SNCF, Eurostar, or from BRU.
It's relatively new so it's not tired yet, downtrodden, and dumpy like the Sheraton at the airport.
Internet is free. It asks for an email address, presumably to spam you, but any address (real or fake) will work.
Minuses: If what I am staying in is their best suite, I'd hate to be in a regular room.
The design is like what you'd see as the "hotel room of the future" at a 1960's world fair.
The suite living room was sort of triangular with a couch, a table (which as Stimpy noted substitutes for an absent desk), a TV, a small closet, a safe, and a fridge, which comes with a few free soft drinks and waters. You will likely need an extension cord to use your computer at the table. Inexplicably, there was a tiny guest toilet/sink room. Also a coffee machine and an electric kettle for tea.
The bedroom includes a queen bed, another closet, and another TV. The room holds the bed but not much more. It is also sort of triangular.
The bathroom has a sink (no space for your stuff), a tub, a shower compartment, and a toilet compartment.
I'd estimate the total size about 550 sq ft, decent size for this level of hotel.
It's all rather utilitarian looking. Service so far is what you'd expect at a standard chain hotel.
Get an extra key to put in the silly slot thingie by the door so the HVAC and all else doesn't go off when you leave the room. Don't worry about housekeeping removing it because you shouldn't ever stay here for more than one night.
But for one night with an AM departure, I'd consider it again, until it gets tired, which is probably at least 3 years off.
