27 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Great atmosphere, friendly people and staff! ask about free parking!

Disliked: bit of a walk to showers (through the bar) however we did not mind, others might.

27 February 2011

Liked: The Pub is always full of people, and it's a nice place to get to know others travellers.

Disliked: The shower's water was COLD, on winter time. To go to the showers, it's necessary to cross the Pub (an open Pub for the whole city - not only the guests) and then outside in the cold to get in another building. The toilet was always without paper.

15 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: You can rent bicycles from the hostel. Also, the staff are really helpful and willing to answer questions. The bed setup wasn't too bad either. We didn't have a lock but they provide them. The breakfast was decent also.

Disliked: The showers are through the bar.

14 February 2011 Kimberly would recommend this property

Liked: I loved everything! The staff was helpful and friendly, the location was great, the bar was cheap, breakfast was standard, but appreciated. EVerything was clean, it was very laid back and all around one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at.

Disliked: I did not shower at the hostel, but if I did I don't think I would have enjoyed the shower room. Also, I was in a 12+ bed dorm with a huge group of disrespectful travellers who were not considerate of people sleeping. This of course was not the hostel's fault, but was truly annoying.

13 February 2011 Donato would recommend this property

Liked: Location, staff

Disliked: If you want to go to have a shower, you must go through an area outside.

04 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Overall, a great hostel. Excellent atmosphere in the bar downstairs - good music, good (cheap) beer, good people. Nice staff, it's clean, and the location is good - couple minutes walk to Markt. Good, basic breakfast, though only until 9:30. And my shower was hot.

Disliked: The woman who does the cleaning is quite rude. I didn't think it was a big deal to get to the showers as some reviewers did, but you do have to cross the bar and the back patio to get to the building the showers are housed in. It is a bit annoying that there is no sink with the toilet on each floor, but at least there is one inside your dorm room.

Liked: Clean, awesome bar with a great happy hour, good place to meet people, great location, felt safe (card lock system).

07 December 2010 Shannon would recommend this property

Liked: Good breakfast, free wi-fi, really good location (very close to the centre and a supermarket next door), a decent kitchen to cook your own food.

Disliked: The showers aren't the best (they're the type you have to continually tug on the chain to keep going and it's rarely hot) and there's one toilet per floor, which doesn't have a basin to wash your hands in.

04 December 2010 Yves would recommend this property

Disliked: 1. Bad wifi connectivity 2. Congested rooms 3. Remotly located showerplace.

22 November 2010 Stefanie would recommend this property

Liked: I liked that we were given key cards and we had to swipe them to get into the dorms; that made me feel safe. The people i dormed with were really nice and no one mided that my friend and I had to get up early in the morning. I couldn't believe they served a free breakfast, and it was a fair assortment of items for being free, and what's more it was a buffet! Bruges is small so everything is fairly close together but the hostel was barely 5 minutes from the main square which both made it easy to find the first night, and get back to later that night.

Disliked: There was nothing I disliked, but I was only there for one night and I never used the showers so I can't comment on them.

14 November 2010

Liked: Confortable bar, nice staff. Very good location

Disliked: Shower very cold, and you have to go by the outdoor to access the shower. Just not possible in winter!!

10 November 2010

Liked: Close to the city center and the free breakfast.

Disliked: Showers are located in a different building. The lockers were on a different floor.
