ibis Budget Charleroi Airport

Friendly staff. Comfortable bed. You could buy a takeaway meal and heat. Quiet.

Cheap stay in a cheap hotel- you get what you pay for, perfect for a bed and a shower before you get to the airport. Nice that they offer shuttle service to airport.

There were no coffee cups left by the coffee machine and when reported to the staff member at reception they rolled their eyes in annoyance

Convenient for the airport, shuttle available at an extra charge (€13 at the time of writing this) Nothing that I really didn't like, no shocks, the facilities on booking.com make it clear there is no restaurant so just be prepared.

The best summary is you get what you pay for. The hotel us 1*, it does reflect that rating.

Location is good, walkable to the airport but I wouldn't recommend it if you have a suitcase. Fits the "bare minimum" niche. It'll do the job for one night especially if you have an early flight.

We stayed in one of the heat waves and there was no air con or fans. We tried to sleep with the window open, but it was fairly difficult with the blind which was full of holes, so the light wasn't really blocked out and all the bugs joined us in our room. The walls are also VERY thin, so don't expect a good sleep, as you hear millions of different alarms going off throughout the night for all the early flights. Food in the area is also lacking, they have vending machines with hot food, but that's about as good as it sounds!
