Very nice hostel...no complaints. Staff was amazing, located very near the metro, rooms clean enough. The common room/bar area was awesome! I met a lot of great people and really enjoyed my stay. I would definitely go again.

A little far away from the center of the city, but metro is just nearby, very convenient, not a big problem. Girls' rooms are in another building, the only inconvenience is that there are only two bathrooms in that building, and toilet and shower are not separated, so sometimes we have to wait quite a time to get to use the bathroom..

Good value. I want to stay there again. Only one thing, it will be confortable for the recepcionist to open the maindoor with a interphone instead of going all the way to the door to open it.

The Hello Hostel has a second building where they have the female dorms. I like this, because sometimes when you book female dorm it appears to be mixed anyway. It was a very calm place and not too big, but for common area, large kitchen and more company you can always go to the main building that is just a few meters aways. The disadvantage is that they do not have lockers in the rooms.

The hostel was full of school kids running up and down the hall, yelling and slamming doors. The beds were uncomfortable, rooms didn't have lockers. Showers were average. It was a poor hostel, and we have stayed in many in Europe.

An average overcrowded hostel. Lived in 8-people room. Someone stole my towel just from the bed when I was sleeping (sick!). The place is very overcrowded especially during weekends. Four of five showers are actually small cubicles like the ones that nazis used to gas jewish people. On the first floor there is a really great bar with a lot of different beers and cocktails. But the music from it is very loud and you can hear it in the night. Hard to get to the center by foot - 3 stops by metro

Perfect place to stay for Brussels. First off it is only a 15-20 minute walk to the city Center (which I recommend walking). Also, staff is friendly and helpful although in some instances there is a language barrier. Super clean and a pretty good atmosphere. The map they give you is amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

A stark, bright hostel on the outskirts of town. Our room (6 person female) was large and clean. The washrooms were clean and plentiful as well. There wasn't much of an atmosphere in the hostel, which was no problem for me as I was there to explore the city! It is fairly far from the city center, but easy to access if one uses the subway system.

Really nice hostel for its price. Clean, the staff is helpful, well secured. The room is cute. I booked a 6 female room but actually got a 4 female one. Only thing is that it's not in the center of the city. But with the metro it's convenient.
