  • Steep circular stairs are a tough climb with luggage. Bar is hopping at night. Expect street noise at 6am for some rooms.

  • Great atmosphere, Excellent staff. showers shared between men and women and far from the bedroom, but a nice place for the cost anyway. I recommend for people who want to save money.

  • It was very strange to go to the shower through the bar and the outdoors. And very uncomfortable shower - all the time you have to keep with one hand the rope for water to flow. Location and everything else was good.

  • It's a hostel, so don't expect anything special and you will be only surprised. Rooms are clean, staff is very very friendly and helpful. ....and very important thing - cheapest beer in town :o) Only thing I was missing was at least some cabinet in our room (no.23 - 4 beds)

  • it's cheap, clean, the staff is actually really really nice and though it does get a little crowded in the rooms with so little space, you honestly don't need that much space when traveling. Breakfast is more than enough.

  • We had a great time at this hostel. The staff was friendly and very helpful. As soon as we got their they mentioned they had a free walking tour leaving from the hostel. They have a bar in the hostel which is popular for locals and tourists alike. It was a nice place to end the night.

  • This hostel is great to stay in. It has very cosy atmosphere, very friendly personal, and the most important clean place where to sleep.

  • The shower situation was a bit ridiculous, and the place was a bit noisy, but otherwise a great place to stay.

  • We really enjoyed this hostel and the staff made it even better. They had great recommendations and advice for where to go and how to get around Bruges. I would recommend this hostel to everybody and will definitely stay there again when we get the chance to go back to Bruges.

  • Great little hostel. One of the only hostels where locals actually come to drink at their bar! Rooms were a bit crowded but as far as hostels go this one is pretty great. Location is pretty good, too.

  • I loved this hostel! Amazing staff and great price. Not only was it a great price for the room, but also for the beer! They have a happy hour and beer is only 1 euro! Here in America... that's about 1.25 and that's unheard. Especially for good beer. Locals come all the time so you get to not only meet travelers but some awesome locals. Also, be aware there is no lift and you have to climb a massive spiral staircase! This hostel surely has character and it's awesome.

  • Excellent staff, very helpful and nice! We stayed in 4 -people room, really big and clean, with the shower inside the room. They have also lockers where you can put your valuable stuff. Downstairs there's a really cool bar, where they serve also a free breakfast - very rich and tasty. The hostel is close to the city center, a few minutes walk. The only flaw is that the wireless connection is really lousy...but I believe that's not the most important thing when traveling.
