My second stay at this hostel. Great staff, nice clean rooms and bathrooms. Having the showers in the courtyard is slightly annoying, but it's not a problem. Good breakfast and as an added bonus there's a bar where you can sit and meet other travellers and some of the locals.

Good enough. There are a lot of information within the hotel! I like the bar. Security is good. It's near a supermarket and center. Easy to get in and go to the central Station

Snuffle was a great place to stay, all the staff members were awesome friendly and helpful. The location is awesome, and the beer is delicious and affordable. While not the cleanest hostel I have ever stayed at it was also not the dirtiest. But I would say the bar is probably cleaner than other areas in the hostel. And whoever washes the bedding needs to make sure they dry it completely my sheets as well as my boyfriends were still soaked and it makes sleeping uncomfortable for sure.

The thumping bass & vibration of the stereo in the lounge kept me awake every night until at least 1 am. The showers are also NOT accessable until 730 in the morning---separted from the sleeping area.....AND you must pull down and hold a chain if you want continuous water.....and the temperature was slightly above room temperature except for an ocassional burst of warm water. I think I would rather have spent a few Euros more & stayed somewhere else.

Worst hostel bathrooms I've ever had. Dirty and awkward. Room on first floor was loud all night from music at the bar/reception. Wouldn't stay there again. Would suggest a day trip for Bruges.

Best choice of hostel if you visit Bruges. Bus stop right in front of hostel. Location is very good enought. They also offer cheapest bicycle rental in town.

Hard to assess. Like: great atmosphere with GREAT staffs, bike rental on the spot, cheap beer. Dislike: to have to go through the common pub area to get to the showers, which itself was really not a good one because we couldn't control the temperature and had to keep pulling on the chain for the water. not enough power outlets, especially in the too crowdy 14 bed mix dorm.

The showers are terrible. Having to hold a button to shower the entire time is very inconvenient.

Nothing incredibly special but a decent hostel--close to the center and cheap bar downstairs. Bring your earplugs though, especially if you are there on the weekend.

Excellent hostel and great value for money. 5 minutes stroll to Brugge's main square. Staff very helpful and friendly. Fantastic bar open later than most in Brugge makes the place even better.

It really is loud at night so consider if that will bother you before signing up.

They should have some lockers in the rooms. Going outside for shower is not to nice when it's cold, but you can do it. The bar area is nice and the breakfast was really good.
