Staff were unhelpful, toilets were not working and no soap in the bathroom and nothing was done about it when I told them.

just out of the city centre, this hostel was a really nice place to stay. good breakfast. staff were helpful. the room was spacious and clean. only there for a night so can't really comment on the vibe. oh and the wifi only works in longue, which was a little inconvenient.

Friendly staff, clean place. We stayed on the top floor, so the wifi was a bit weak, which caused inability of connections.

This hostel is not what it pretends to be on pictures, it looks like an old brothel house that was refurbished with cheap furniture. I wouldn't recommend it if you had any other options to stay elsewhere, the neighbourhood doesn't feel safe at all, with sketchy guys loitering on the streets, the only positive thing is that it borders the orthodox Jewish neighbourhood, which is quite interesting thing to experience - in the end it's not all bad, rooms were reasonably clean and breakfast was ok.

It's fairly easy to walk from the central train station which should take about 10-15 minutes. The staffs are generally O.K, but I wished they could engage more with their guest. The WiFi connection was reliable and I wished they had a locker in my room. The stairs leading up to the room is pretty small and you might end up falling and rolling over the staircase, if you don't mind your steps. Overall, just your average hostel which is slightly out of Antwerp tourist area.

This place was okay to stay a night. The receptionist was very flustered and clearly resented the job, probably after a bad day, but it wasn't that welcoming, considering I myself wasn't troubling her. The room I was in was very hot and it was a bit noisy downstairs, I didn't have my best sleep ever. But it is pretty close to the train station and was cheap.

Pretty average hostel, no major complains other than a lack of lockers in the 4 bedroom dorm.

Everything about this hostel was fine. Nothing great, but not bad either. I really just needed a place to crash for a night so this was ideal for me. Th place was clean and the breakfast was plentiful, even though I woke up late. It's a little far from the city center but the city is so small that it's an easy walk or tram ride away.

The best thing about this hostel, is the staff. They are friendly, helpful and helped us get an important missing item we left at the hostel. Thanks! Also, to the centre you can just follow the tramline 11, as easy as that. Besides all, I also think the lady that checked us in at the reception is really cute :)

decent location, bit of a walk to centre but not too far, also near some good squares frequented by locals rather than tourists with good bars. one way system nearby was a little confusing arriving by car but was space to park once there and only 3.50 euros to park all day. (free Sunday) staff were friendly and helpful, basic accommodation but didn't expect anything else. good value for money. free breakfast was limited, but again was free so was fine recommended

Rooms are kind of small, 3 of us in a 4 bed room were still always in each others' way. Breakfast included was good, basically all you can eat cereal, apples, and bread or toast with about 8 different spreads (jams, peanut butter, nutella, etc) Location may not be closest to town but it is near a trolley stop and that was easy to use. Tickets are less than 2 euro one way and you can buy them at any convenience store.
