The hostel is ok for a city trip in Brussels. You can walk to the center on foot (15-20 min.) The rooms and bathrooms were good enough for us. Some real coffee and orange juice would improve the breakfast a lot.

The lobby and reception of the hostel looks really good, however, the rooms are really old, but at least it\'s clean. It is really strange that you have to activate your room card again if you are staying for more than 1 night. The hostel is quite close to the Metro station, and to the city centre is within 20 mins walk (if you didn\'t get lost). You don\'t have any lockers in your room, but they have a luggage room to put your luggage after checking-out, be sure to have your own padlock.

Room was stuffy and smelt bad. Could have been cleaner. No security lockers in the room itself was inconvenient. Location was not too great either, about 15/20 min walk to city center.

It seems marvelous when you come in, then I was sent to stay in other buildinh which is nearly done. Very bad-cleaned, showers don´t work properly. Staff wasn´t helpful as others hostels that I´ve been before. In short, I wouldn´t recommend that place. It doesn´t pay off, especially for the price that you pay. You may find something much better a litte bit more expensive.

I hated this hostel! The main building is fine, but I had to stay in another building in the same street. The place was dirty, dark, the blankets and maitress were terrible, extremely old and there was no hot water in the shower. I would never stay there again!

They have age restriction !!! No information about this in the Net, They told me about this in reception. If you are over 45 - you can have problems. ( I'm 47 ). Loud music to midnight. Very poor staff in the kitchen. Restroom outside building. When I went there, I must take an umbrella. Never again

The facilities for the showers and toilets were horrible. They were in a completely different building from the bedrooms and you had to leave your building, walk outside, enter another building and pass a busy common room to get there. Also, there were no lockers or even hangers in the room to put in your bags or hang your clothes.
