    Between 5:30-7:30am, there are two man knocked the door of the entire floor and swiped the card trying to break in! Every ten minutes they did the same thing! Me and my friend are terrified and in the noon we told the staff what happened in the early morning, the staff said because they were drunk and one of their group friends was staying in our floor which doesn’t make any sense because they did every! Ten! Minutes! In the end of the conversation, the staff even tried to blame me and my friend did not inform them at that time!

    Wifi did not reach the 5th floor where my room was. Hostel was in a good location to walk anywhere however I didn’t feel the safest on the street immediately outside - lots of lingering men, catcalling etc. Not fault of the hostel but worth noting for solo female traveler’s

    Comfortable bed and great privacy with the curtains in the bed. Toilet and shower in room was good

    the water pressure in the shower was a dribble and took 3 mins to heat up. the shower was also in the room with no real privacy because it is so tiny and therefore was also kind of gross. the breakfast wasn’t vegan friendly. and some of the activities they organised were just happy hours so you spend money at the bar but made it hard to make friends.

    clean and friendly, they attempted something social for people in the hostel most days. beds had curtains. good location in walking distance to most things

    Paying extra for towels is a bit much these days. Also while the free WiFi worked well downstairs up on the 6th floor it was nonexistent. I stayed in a shared room which was fine but the lockers were slightly too small for a rucksack and the whole room smelled of blocked drains.

    If you really must go to Brussels then this place is very well placed. Take the metro line 3 or 4 from gare du Nord or gare du midi to the bourse stop and the hostel is very close. The staff were great and helpful even when I checked in at 11 pm

    the showers were terrible: roof looked as though it would cave in from all the mould, all the water came from one hole which was very unpleasant. reception area had a strange smell of poop most of the time. apparently it’s soundproof but it absolutely is not, could hear everything going on in the dorms nearby. the washing machine was also disgusting and full of sludge and hair alike.

    the staff were wonderful and the location was perfect.

    Honestly I didn't like the fact that you need to pay extra to storage your bag if you arrive before the check in time. I understand that they offer the storage services but if you are a host of the hotel I don't see why they will ask you to pay for that service. In addition, the hotel is not really new, it has some years so you can see some imperfections in the building. For sure a better cleaning could help to give back some fresh and clean look.

    The location. It was close enough to everywhere by walking.

    We lived there in a private room for 3 nights, there was no room cleaning at all. They didn't specify when we booked the room. We wouldn't have stayed here if we knew there would be no cleaning. We were also not provided with any change of towels and toilet papers... We paid hotel price for this private room and it's poor value for money.

    Great location

    There was strong smell of humidity and leaks in the reception. We have made checkin online in and pay in advance, but room was ready at 15, we arrived at 10. Directions to visit EU Parlament were incorrect, we lost time because of that.

    Most of staff is open to help and friendly. Breakfast is good enough, variations of food. There are games/activities organized each day, we didnt attend but it is worth mentioning.

    Although advertised as air conditioning, the hotel really doesn’t use this system. they have some kind of air recycling that doesn’t provide the right setting. The rooms also don’t have a window that opens so you rely on this air recycling process to circulate air, problem is it doesn’t really work, so rooms are hot and feel stuffy. if you’re prone to allergies (like I am) this will be terrible for you!

    The location was excellent and staff very nice and helpful, the hotel has also a cool vibe and has many activities and options to enjoy inside the facilities.

    Only lacking was the hair dryer. No towels as well. Quite on the expensive side, but the other options in brussels were more expensive.

    Good location, close to the grand place. Breakfast was quite good, totally worth it. Beds came done, with curtains which is always a good addition. Shower with consumables. They had also happy hour during evenings offering a free beer and a get together with the other guests.

    The room was really small+ it was also very loud. It smelled like in a public toilet in the meeting area, where you were supposed to have breakfast + bare minimum of hygiene when it comes to tables etc. The girls from the reception desk responded very slowly to any requests. Generally it seems like a place for young people who don't mind to pay lots of money without expecting to get any good quality. I would not recommend this place.

    We liked just the location, because it really was in the city center and near most of the tourist attractions.

    Towels are only refreshed every 3 days if you're staying in a private room and we weren't informed of this. However reception staff were happy to give us fresh ones when we asked. Our TV in the room didn't work and there aren't phones in the room to contact reception. The rooms are smaller than what they appear on the pictures, but given that it is a hostel, we expected this. The rooms are very close together too and the shared dorms are on the same floors as the private rooms, so we could hear a lot of noise from the school groups staying on the same floor as us. There are no extra pillows or blankets in the room but the room is centrally heated well. The hostel is less than a 10 minute walk to Mannekin Pis/Grand Place; and plenty of places to get some waffles and frites.

    Check-in was rather late at 1530, but the reception staff were friendly and allowed us to store our bags before then, so that we could explore the city while we waited. There are plenty of tours that you can pay to attend advertised on a blackboard in the lobby and every evening from 2000-2100 there are activities and cheap food/alcohol deals. The room was adequately sized with enough amenities. There are laundry services available for 6-9 euros. Extra/clean towels are free if you're staying in a private room.
