We stayed in the old wing in an 8 person room and it was gross and some of the lockers didn't work. The new wing, mostly 16 person rooms were really nice with curtains for each separate bunk along with a bedside light and outlet and room underneath the bed for locked storage.

Hello, we are sorry that you did not like the hostel. The pod dorms are with 10 and 16 beds and are really awesome. On your next visit to the Bauhaus be sure to book yourself into the pods or just ask at reception if they are available. When you visit other St-Christopher's Hostels don't forget to ask the reception desk for the pod beds! We are aware that some of our lockers are broken and we are working through the hostel to fix them. Thanks for choosing to stay with us and we hope to see you again soon! from the Bauhaus Team!

Good hostel, although our bethroom was really smelly and small. The bedroom itself was awesome, we stayed at a privete room for 2 and it looked like a hotel, with TV and everything. The location was ok, near to the center once Bruges is a small town, like 15 minutes walking. The pub next to the hostel is really good, they have a lot of different beers and a delicious soup and others snacks for a very good price. Eat the fries and the carrot soup, it was really good. Breakfast was ok.

Very good location, reasonable price and a club included in the hostel (although the club sometimes is hired off, with no entrance for hostel-guests). Please check on beforehand. Some rooms (and bathrooms) have a low ceiling, watch your head. Free WIFI. To conclude, it is a perfect hostel on a good location, surrounded by lots of bars, clubs and even the most popular drinking district is only a 15-minute footwalk away!

We went to the hostel from the train station (from Brussels) with a bus 6. It stopped closed to the hostel, the bus driver was nice and give us directions. The hostel has two sides, one is little bit newer - double bed side. The other one is a dorm side, bar in the middle. We stayed in the double bed side and the room was clean, enough space, shower inside - all recently renovated. The staff was VERY nice, we had a free tour Gide for the city (but we gave her money anyway, cos she was cool).

My stay was for a private room over a weekend in January 2013.Based on it's location and ammenites, I liked this hostel. The problem was the private rooms are over a nightclub "Entrenous", owned by the Hostel which is rented out for dance parties. Both nights, the noise from party-goers and the music, as well as the noise from the heating system made sleeping very difficult. You probably may not have these issues on a week night during warm weather but be warned!

Hello, Thanks for taking the time to write us a review. We are glad that you liked our hostel and ammenities. Our nightclub is 100% soundproofed bu sometimes the party goers coming in and out can be quite loud. We do apologise for that. Hopefully we can welcome you back to Bruges again in the future. Safe travels! The Bauhaus Team

It was annoying not having wifi in my room, but it wasn't too much of a problem as it was available in the lobby and restaurant. The room and bed were good. The free breakfast was a bonus as well. The restaurant and bar were also very nice.

Good hostel. Spacious room, clean. Only one shower and toilet for the floor was a bit annoying, and no kitchen facilities. Location was alright, just a short walk to the centre of town.

A brilliant location - everything is walking distance. Facilities are all rather basic and the breakfast is quite meagre, but the pub crawl and arranged events are great. All in all, a good stay.

This place has probably the best showers I have seen in a hostel. The bathroom is always clean and everything is in perfect conditions. The breakfast is OK, the rooms are spacious and super clean. It's not near the center, but it's not that far either. I would recommend this hostel and would love to stay there again in the future.

Hello, Thanks for the rating! Our POD beds are awesome, glad you think so too! Sorry that you found our bar a bit pricey, you possibly missed our daily happy hour and drinks promotions. Hopefully you can come back and enjoy them again in the future! Safe further travels from the Bauhaus team!

We expected more from the hostel, specially because we had booked a two-people room. Our room wasn't clean when we arrived, and we had to wait for the staff to clean it. The bathroom was too small and people smoked in the corridors. Besides, we had a problem with the staff, who entered twice in our room to see if we had smoked, although I had explained that we were not in the room when the fire alarm rang.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Check in time for all rooms is 2pm. If you arrive earlier you can store your bags in our luggage storage area and return anytime after 2pm to get your keys. This gives our housekeeping team from 10am until 2pm to clean all of the rooms. When the fire alarm went off the staff needed to enter certain rooms to make sure that they were not the source of the fire. These procedures are in place for the safety of all guests and staff in the hostel. It is normal fire safety procedure but we do apologise if you were inconvenienced by this. Please come back and visit us soon and hopefully you will have a better experience next time! Safe travels The Bauhaus Team

Staff was very friendly, bar downstairs had a great atmosphere. Breakfast was good too. It did tend to get a bit noisy at times because of the bar below but that quieted down too before too late. Room we stayed in didn't have curtains surrounding the bed like in some of the pics and no nightstands either so it was difficult to put your stuff anywhere readily accessible. Lockers were fine though. We ended up switching to a double and that, needless to say was better. More private and convenient.
