Adventure Alternative - GUEST HOUSE - Arts-Factory-Experience - For artists, makers and open minds - Attention, we are not a hotel and are not adapted for

Nice cosy Twin peaksy vibes which drove away the cold from outside. Your friendly (g)hosts Mau Mau, Krotje, Mike and Serge warmed us with their special stories and we thank them for that!

good views on the roof

no bbq on the roof

It's a very interesting location! It was just like the description: not a regular room. This was a big plus for me!

The spectacular views, the concept and decoration

Be aware there is a shared bathroom

Everybody keep off that place!

The hoster was really kind and approachable.

Make sure you read the warnings, this is not a hotel.for everyone, it feels much more like staying over at your friend's house. If you're in to quirky curiosities and beautiful industrial architecture then this will become your home from the moment you arrive until the second you leave. And the friendliest cat I have ever met in my life lives here. It was a completely unique experience and I would love to return.

I loved everything about this place, but it's not for everyone. The rooms are all in 4th floor and there's lots of stairs, the rooms are basic but with so much character everywhere else, it was everything we needed. Facilities are shared. If that sounds good then you need to visit.

that it was really historical when it came to decoration. staff was friendly and the option to rent a bike was convenient.

the bed i slept on was rather uneven and had the tendency to fall over when i leaned to the left

A completely unique experience, not for everyone but a great fit for the adventurous and open minded. Serge is a kind, creative soul whose eccentricity and creative spirit is visible throughout this weird and wonderful place. You'll be in the midst of an industrial wasteland with access to a rooftop to look over this crumbling expanse. You'll have a warm welcome, interesting chats and access to some very nice facilities. I was expecting the journey there to be complex but it really wasn't, just ten minutes from the au-pont train station. Getting in requires a code and make sure you give the lock a good pull to get it open once inputted, then it's up the stairs (no lift) to enter Serge's wonderland. The toilets and showers were spotless and my room was really comfy, they've got great WiFi there and if you work online there's a decent workspace in the room. I imagine this would be an urban explorers dream. Next door there's a converted factory turned rock / punk / techno venue that I popped into and experienced some top tier Belgian metal and cheap beers. In the morning Serge made me a lovely breakfast and we had a great chat before I got a very affordable ride to the airport with his friend which he organised. Booking often gives you the dull, the mediocre and the forgettable places - this isn't it. Its different, it's a bit wild and wacky and it's in a very unusual place, but you'll never forget your visit.
