The owner is vey nice and willing to help you with where you want to go. I definitely felt very welcomed by his warm hospitality. The people I met there were also very nice and came from everywhere, Italy, Russia, China, Mexico, Australia, and Taiwan. I will go back again if I have the chance.

This is the best place I've stayed in Europe. It's like a rich uncle's house, you are invited to join their family with many friends... Strongly recommend! No need to bring anything, you are provided with love tender and care :)

It was a very warm welcome, map of the city and explaining where to go for my free evening was excellent. It was fun to share the last pieces of bread in the last morning at the hostel :P In general - it was much better than a hotel in Brussels center, what my colleague and I used three years ago. Thanks!

Just a great hostel. Does not have that "summer camp feel" that I hate in many hostels. Instead, it's a beautiful large home that is very comfortable to relax in. The staff is also very kind and make you feel right at home. Good location near the Louise metro stop. Fair price. Highly recommended.

One of my favourite hostels ever. Super-friendly, relaxed owner, beautiful house, good breakfast. Also a great place to meet people while cooking in the kitchen or socializing in the living room. Simply awesome!

Wonderful hostel located in charming early 20th century town house. The manager makes every effort to make guests feel welcome. The breakfast is good and the communal areas are very spacious.

Loved the place. The owner Karel is a wonderful person and very good host. As this is a small hostel (more of a residential house) you get to meet fellow travellers and enjoy meals n pardy together. Had a good time and would definitely recommend.

I can easily see why this place gets such great reviews. It's in a lovely location, it's convenient and Karol, the owner, is the ABSOLUTE BEST! This man is patient, kind and very helpful. At the end of my stay I really wished I didn't want to leave. I will definitely tell my friends about this place and if I ever go back to Brussels, I already know where I will be staying. What an awesome experience staying at Sleephere was. I recommend it to all!

A brilliant B&B - a fantastic welcome and the place was very very clean. Great breakfast in the mornings as well. A quiet "hostel" in comparison to others but it's in a really good location not far from the metro and connections to all the train stations - Highly recommended!

At first, I was a little hesitant to stay in a "hostel" that was in someone's house, but it ended up being the best place I've stayed. The owner, Karel, is super friendly and makes breakfast every morning. Also, it's in a really really safe location (and in a beautiful house)! The only complaint is that I wish there was one more bathroom. Besides having only two bathrooms, this was othe best place.

The staff were great and helpful. It felt like you were invited into a B&B and not a hostel. Karel was a great host and went out of his way to make you feel at home. Excellent hostel and would go back to it

The owner is really friendy and he gives you a lot of advice about Bruxelles. I shared the room with other two girls. The room was quite new and big. Unfortunately there is just a shower per floor. Breakfast was ok.
