    I didn't like the option to buy a towel for 10€. There was no option to rent a towel like the other hostels do.

    Mr Miguel that works in the reception is a great person! Also the views to the channel are stunning. The breakfast is basic but tasty.

    The toilet in Dormitory is fogged glass . As it is close to a village , not many options for grocery shopping . Not many restaurants too

    Cheap and just few kms from Brugge

    Lack of ventilation & on a hot day rooms were stifling. Very little atmosphere, purely functional.

    Located on a nice river.

    It was a great stay. Efficient check in. Friendly staff. Nice room. Good breakfast, buffet style 7.30-9.30. Location was very suited to visiting Bruges (10 minute drive or a bus 5 minutes walk). Room was clean. We are a family of 5 with children under 10 and found it ideal. It felt well run and organized. We would stay again if in the area. Nice common room area with table football. Quiet time after 22.00. Right on the canal. The kids enjoyed watching the bridge go up for the boats.

    The hostel is located near a sand mining facility there is constant dust and the air quality is quite poor... especially for individuals with rhinal and respiratory issues.

    The hostel is a decent place to spend the night. Rooms are shared and the place is clean. Breakfast was decent and in plenty. Good stable wifi connection... was able to get some work done. Also close to a police station, so security is OK.

    The hostel has no double bedrooms but they offers this type of accomodation on booking.com. In reality they sell a 4-bed dorm as a double (twin) room where two beds are fixed folded, thus you pay more expensive for the same confort of a dorm. Moreover all the dorms are very budget accomodations, with no decoration and basic amenities (e.g. no chairs but stools some of which fixed folding, small fixed folding table for 2 people, no closed cabinets but very small lock boxes for valuables, no shelf in the bathroom and shower without base raised from the floor...): in particular the beds are not confortable (the mattresses and ears are plastic-wrapped so they heat up easily and the matresses are hard). Finally the windows of the rooms facing the street/parking do not have a veil, so you have to close the curtain and turn on the light in broad daylight to have privacy. Thus even the dorm remains expensive for the basic/poor confort it offers. The breakfast is mandatorily included in the price of the room, even if you don't/cannot eat it. The kitchen is not at disposl of guests. Location may seem isolated without car but there is a bus connection to the nearest village and self-service bar on-site with terrasse on the canal. The hostel tends to host to big groups and sport clubs which may be noisy and take most of the bar/terrasse place.

    Peaceful location in the countryside along a canal, nearby to the highway. Simple, no decoration but functional, like a budget motel. All room are at ground-floor (no stair or lift needed) and accessible to PRM (spatious corridor, spatious private bathroom). Alternative food options are offered on request for breakfast to people intolerant to gluten (special bread) or lactose (soja milk).

    The beds in the rooms are not comfortable, the beds creak every time you move, but the sheets are clean and fresh.

    breakfast very good, everything fresh, meats, fruit, bread, a large selection of food, you can go out on the terrace, I recommend😉

    I didn't like the safety measures regarding the entrance to the room and the fact they didn't give me a second key since we were 6 people in the same room.

    It was clean and the breakfast was good. it was great value for money. The staff spoke perfectly English and they were friendly.

    Very basic. Vending machines for snacks and bar. No staff beyond 6.30pm. Accommodation is very sparse and given the type of building every slightest noise was very loud. Had problem with closing the door meaning it had to be slammed shut to lock it (much to the annoyance of other guests). If you're looking for no frills then it suits the budget but I will not return.

    It offered cheap accommodation just outside Brugge and staff was very friendly

    We came to the Hostel with reservation already paid in advance and Hostel staff said what our rooms are occupied and leave us on the street and take money for this, and after that said that we didn't show up in the Hostel. Guys ignore this Hostel because you will pay money and get nothing. Terrible place for cheaters

    Nothing, they didn't accept me, maybe it's racial discrimination?
