We ended up with room 211 (the gem of all rooms) so lots of space, our own shower and a balcony of all things?! Clean, tidy, minimalistic, carpet as a headboard! What more could you want. Bar on site (when it was open) and some table tennis equipment to see who is the supreme player. It was also quiet and the rooms didn't smell. Really the price is a steal for what we got in my mind so its a win for me. Just a decent breakfast would have sealed the deal.

Breakfast.... was..... sad. I had a cheese sandwich. It wasn't great. Just not much in the way of things to eat. However, it's cheap as chips and as such what do you expect. Waffles in the vending machine at 1am. It's a bit of a gaunt to the main town so not as central as we had hoped.

- close to the metro station (Madou) - good location: calm, quiet neighborhood, nice old tenement houses around, a small park with a small monument, the hostel is not located on the main street so it is quiet - nice staff - great friendly atmosphere - food and drink machines available 24 hours a day - a nice bar where you can drink alcohol and tea (free tea) - simple breakfasts (bread, cheese, ham, salami, fruit jam, Nutella, eggs, coffee and tea) - You can only enter the hotel with an entry card, which gives you a sense of security

- I was in the hostel durin renovations which started early in the morning and made it impossible to sleep. - it was impossible to close the window in the room

The room was surprisingly spacious with a very nice en-suite bathroom. Massive mirror in the bathroom, bench in shower, multiple hooks on the wall for towels. The beds were comfy as well as a decent size. The continental breakfast was simple but good. Public transport links were great, Madou station was two minutes away. Area seemed safe and in good weather only a short walk away from the city centre.

It was a bit hard to find initially but just fine once you're there. No privacy curtains around the beds but you can always use a towel or spare sheet which is what I did since my roommates were packing/leaving in the early hours.

The twin room was terrific value for money! The Location - so quick and easy to walk to the Grand-Place, Daily Cleaning, Breakfast included, felt secure, clean bathrooms! Overall, far exceeded my expectations for a youth hostel!

The soundproofing probably isn't the best as you can slightly hear people walk by and doors opening/closing, which isn't a problem for me since I am a heavy sleeper. Towels are an additional €1.50, unless you're happy using the free bathmat as a towel (which I'm sure most do).

Very big and comfortable room, two floors. Looks like small house. Inside comfortable bathroom. Also small basins for brush teeth upstairs on sleeping floor were lockers and comfortable a lot of places. Floor down had bathroom and sofa and armchairs...like chilling staff. Probably good for bigger groups. In hostel is also space for games, billiard, bar, but not know more...spend one night. Hostel gas comfortable bug luggage room and wash machines ...

Hostel looks like in reconstruction, not very oriented in corridors and stairs. Better than others.

One of the best in my experience and such a relief after a few really awful ones for the same price! Very comfortable and clean bed in a room for 4, absolutely clean bathroom with a huge mirror and a new, spacious shower. Good wi-fi and friendly staff, very convenient location - close to the city center but on a quiet street. The breakfast included was a nice way to start the day!

It was a bit surprising that there is no toilet in the room, only a shower, but that wasn't a big issue. Also you should be ready that there are no towels and locks for the lockers provided, you should bring your own.

I was a big fan of the luggage storage room, It's bring your own lock or buy one but they were big enough to fit everything and they had a variety of cage sizes for your stuff, even a bike if you have one. The breakfast was simple but it's free what do you expect? I was more than happy with it. You do have to make your own bed but the sheets were folded, clean(no stains), and ready on the mattress. Getting there from the airport bus is quick (4-6 minute walk up a small hill) and moving around the town with public transportation is easy from the hostel location. The front desk stay weren't rude but they weren't friendly either.

I read a lot of reviews that there were bed bugs at this hostel. If they did have them whatever wing I was in I didn't experience that. They had mattress protectors on the beds and everything was tidy. It still made me extremely paranoid though. The ensuite shower wasn't cleaned that well but it wasn't horrible.

Excellent location. only one bus ride from the airport. very close to the city centre and attractions. walking distance in fact.

The property claimed to have private bathrooms, but the room I was assigned to had a shower but no toilet; toilets were shared by the whole floor. When I mentioned it to the receptionist, I was moved to another room with a toilet and shower, but it was a 6-bed, not a 4-bed room. So the property needs to make sure that this is stated clearly in the facilities description. there was noise on the street at night, but I am not sure how the property can control that. The lockable lockers in the rooms are too small. they could easily be made larger.

A proper "Youth Hostel". Travelling with 2 teenagers, we definitely felt like the oldest people staying here :-) Quite busy with guests coming and going. Really friendly atmosphere. Room was good - 2 sets of bunks. Bathroom and room clean. Lots of hot water in shower. Games room with free table tennis equipment rental. Towel rental available at reception which was essential when travelling light. Bar looked good but didn't get the opportunity to spend any time there. Lots of recycle oints for bottles, cans, paper etc so really eco conscious. Choice at breakfast was limited but it was free and more than adequate.

Limited check in times and reception opening times but apart from that all good.

It was really close to the concert hall. Very close to center as well. They have also a lot good cafe's and restaurant in the area. With this price and with this location it was the best!

If I consider price and location I can not say anything bad about it. It was very clean as well. Not the best decoration but we were just there for a concert so more than enough!
