Whole property was in horrible state.. There was renovation/painting going on and the room I was supposed to stay had no ventilation so it had so much dust I got strong allergic reaction. Walls are thin like Japanese houses, sounds from toilets emanates through like you were next to the toilet seat. The corridors steep and narrow mazes and the odd joint of weed can be smelled. That place should be decommisioned.

The staff is very friendly but there's no soap in the restrooms and not enough showers for the amount of people hosted. There's lots of very narrow stairs to get to each floor which makes it difficult if you carry heavy bags.

Lots of steep stairs. Parking on the street was convenient. Cat at the reception desk was a treat! Bathroom was tiny. Did not even bother showering since everything seemed very cramped.

Overall enjoyed our stay 👍
Went with a group of friends from work. Was actually pleasantly surprised. The rooms were clean enough and the amenities were clean and in decent condition. Definitely wouldn't recommend for couples and is a complete no go for anyone with mobility issues. Very steep stairs throughout. But for groups of visitors that are not that bothered with anything fancy then it suits just fine. Overall enjoyed our stay 👍.

The hostel was easily commutable and the was neat. But the WC was very small and uncomfortable. And they dont have big lockers to put the luggage. You could only put important items in the small locker they give. And the plug points to charge mobile or a laptop was at a very odd place and not easily reachable from bed.

Small rooms and lot of noise through out the nigh.
Good things: clean rooms, good restaurants nearby, accessible. Bad things. Tiny rooms and toilet. Only 2 charging point for a bed of 5, most of the rooms are facing a busy road so lot of noise. People coming in out every 19mins throughtout the night. Not a good place for taking rest.

If you have a luggage weighing more than 10kg then don’t stay here because there are steep stairs all the way up till 3rd floor which are really risky to walk on with a luggage. The reception is on the first floor and then rooms are on 1st 2nd and 3rd floors. No elevator at all. The toilets were dirty and only one toilet and shower between 6-7 rooms. Pay a bit more and stay somewhere else.

We stayed in the Hostel for 4 nights, the location is good! Only 20 min with the tram to the center. The only bad thing was the toilet and shower, they only had one. So one toilet for the floor with 6/7 rooms .

Bad and disrespectful
I paid for a 6 beds bedroom and my bedroom had 7 bedrooms. This is disrespectful. Bedroom was small, the place is old and overall its not clean. The good thing is that the shower on the second floor is new and clean. Wouldn't stay there again

This is the first time I stayed in a hostel. Immed
This is the first time I stayed in a hostel. Immediately after teaching there I cancelled my few other bookings in other cities and booked hotel, this was such horrible. After coming to Brussels I took another hostel and that's fully opposite from this one. Surprisingly both the hotels are connected and may be the owner is same. I would expect they will try to maintain same standard in both the cities. Well, the structure can not be changed but cleanliness, looking, maintainence can be enhanced. The staffs were really good and cooperative. In summer there is no way to make the room cool.
