Guest Reviews

• Başlevent (8/5): -
• Giulia (5/5): Avaliação de 1 dia apenas - A comida é boa e tem lavanderia Na hora do aluguel diz que se você alugar o quarto, mais pessoas não podem alugar junto contigo, mas isso é mentira: Please note that when booking a double twin room, it is possible that guests will be staying in a 4 to 6 bed room. The remaining bunk beds are not available to other guests. Além disso, o box não tem cortina. E esqueceram de dar roupa de cama.

• bart teck (5/5): - In en uitchecken Poort was ook afgesloten met grondvergrendeling, kamer was niet proper ( vuile plinten, schimmel in badkamers + muffe vuile geur ) zeer karig ontbijt
• Catrin (8/5): Für einen Kurztrip perfekt. - - gute Lage - praktisch eingerichtet und trotzdem gemütlich - es gab viel Stauraum im Zimmer - es war sehr sauber und gepflegt

• Daniel GASQUET (8/5): simple, pour voyager pas trop cher - tarifs abordables lampes de chevets défaillantes
• Aman (10/5): - Breakfast , cleanliness , staff
• Mariia (10/5): Nice and comfortable - Everything was super clean and comfortable. The staff were also very friendly and willing to help. They borrowed me a key so i didn’t have to buy it, which was super nice! There is free drinkable water, toilets, play and resting zones, so you can comfortably wait until the check-in. For the towel though, I had to pay. A bit unfortunate that you have to overpay a bit for the female dorm. But overall it was a great stay. Location is also very good, the tram and metro were really close. Thanks!
• PAMELA (9/5): weekend rigenerante - atmosfera giovanile e vicinanza alla metro e al centro la doccia non chiusa
• Gerdien (8/5): -
• Pérez Díaz (8/5): -
• Youssef (6/5): - Accueil chaleureux Pas de serviettes, j'ai oublié les miennes 😔
• Margaux (9/5): -
• Douglas (8/5): Um bom hostel, voltaria… - A menina de cabelo preto que estava na recepção me atendeu com muita simpatia! Foi rápida e precisa no check in. Senti falta do Wi-Fi no quarto
• Abeiku (8/5): -
• Jonathan (8/5): Muy Bueno - Era cómodo, el internet funcionaba bien, a 20 min caminado del centro, parada del metro a 5 min N/A
• frederique (8/5): Parfait pour un week-end en famille. - Auberge très propre avec un personnel très agréable. Petit déjeuner très bien pour démarrer la journée: simple mais efficace et copieux. Quartier calme et auberge calme même avec les enfants. Literie vraiment inconfortable
• Izau Jaconias (9/5): - Limpeza, Camas, privacidade das camas com curtinhas, dois banheiros. Horário do check in
• nad (8/5): - Bonjour, le personnel était très sympathique mais le petit déjeuner était pauvret. Très peu de choix, un café affreux... Le petit déj et le café horrible
• Camille (2/5): Hotel à éviter - Trop petit odeurs d'égouts insupportables téléviseur qui ne marche pas connexion internet qui coupe sans cesse... Voir ci-dessus
• Sam (9/5): One of the best hostels by design. - I like that there were curtains completely covering the beds and walls on back and front of it. So the sleeping was excellent. Also the pillows were new and the blanket was warm enough. I also liked that the lights were limited which means they had a sensor in big rooms so no body could just turn on the whole room. It was not cramped even in big rooms of 10 beds so it was pleasant even with luggage. It would be nice get better lockers in big rooms because the ones under the bed were sticky, some of them need a lot of force and pushing.
• Abderrahim (7/5): الصرحة إقامة نضيفه جميلة - كل شي لاشيء
• AYŞENUR (8/5): Merkeze yakın hostel - Tesisin konumu güzeldi. Grand Place için 20 dk, yemek yerleri için 8-10 dk yürüme mesafesindeydi. Kahvaltı dahil olması güzeldi. Temizdi. Çalışanlar güler yüzlü ve yardımseverdi. Ufak da olsa bir bahçesinin olmasını sevdik. Odalarda askı olmaması gerçekten çok zorlayıcı. Montlarımız, kıyafetlerimiz öylece masanın üzerinde kaldı. Ayrıca 4 kişilik oda için sadece 1 tane sandalye olması da bizim için olumsuzdu. Yataklar temiz, yeni fakat gıcırdıyordu.
• Viacheslav (7/5): Кухня отстой - Кухня
• Marius (10/5): -
• Rafael (1/5): A deeply uncomfortable stay marked by disrespect and invasion of privacy. - Only The location. The accommodation itself was fine, but we had a very uncomfortable experience with the staff. During a fire alarm situation, a receptionist entered our room without knocking on the door or waiting for any response while my wife was undressed inside. This was extremely embarrassing and disrespectful to our privacy. What made the situation even worse was the complete lack of professionalism afterward. The employee refused to speak with me even after I called him five times to discuss what happened. Not only did he never apologize, but he spent the entire evening playing pool instead of properly addressing the situation. We also contacted the accommodation through Booking regarding the incident and did not receive any response. Unfortunately, because of this incident, we did not feel comfortable during our stay. The only positive point was the location.
• Jose (10/5): exelent -
• BL90 (6/5): - The privately room was spacious and clean with a very big bathroom. The member of staff who checked us in wasn't very friendly. Didn't take the time to tell us about any of the hostel's facilities or about the city itself. The breakfast was fair, with all the basics. However, there was a lack in variety compared to other hostels I've stayed in.

• Panzeri (8/5): -
• Susana (9/5): - Jamais fait un hostel la première fois mais surpris j'ai aimé. J'avais pas de place en bas du couchage mais en hauteur mais j'ai bien dormi. J'avais peur de pas bien dormir.
• séréna (8/5): -
• Miloud (7/5): -
• Victor (9/5): Ótimo - Localização excelente próxima do metrô, tram, pontos de ônibus e jardim botânico. O quarto tem banheiro privado e ele sempre estava limpo. O quarto também tem vários armários ótimos!
• Diogo (10/5): Uma estadia memorável!! - A limpeza e todas as facilidades que forneceu Gostei de tudo!
• Sviatoslav (10/5): -
• Anastasia Cristiana (8/5): - The position was amazing, just a little dangerous at night if you go around Gare du Nord. The room was very clean and the price was well proportioned The staff was quite rude in the replies. When i checked in a guy was checking in before me and after he left the receptionist started laughing and making rude jokes about him with me. This was the only bad feature of my staying
• John (10/5): - No tuve tiempo
• Oksana Ksanskaya (9/5): -
• Lucía (9/5): -
• Timoo Glä (7/5): - Lage war gut Zimmer hellhörig und man musste Bett selbst beziehen im Privatzimmer
• Vanna (9/5): - For the Hostel it has everything you need. We had room where we were alone with the private bathroom. Everything was clean. The room is very bright because it has big windows, and also nice view. The breakfast is very essential, but for the Hostel we didn't expect more, so also ok 😊
• Nicolas (5/5): -
• purificacion (7/5): -
• Pedro (8/5): -
• Hugo (8/5): -
• Carlotta (8/5): Comodo ostello completo di tutti i comfort essenziali - La posizione, comoda alla stazione e al centro. La struttura completa di deposito bagagli, sala giochi (da noi non utilizzata) e bar con ottima selezione birraria e prezzi contenuti. Colazione molto essenziale ma dignitosa visto il prezzo del soggiorno. Noi abbiamo usufruito di una camera singola con bagno privato. Presenti biancheria da letto e asciugamani. Consigliamo lucchetto per deposito bagagli ma comunque si può acquistare in struttura a pochi euro Niente
• Davis (8/5): -
• Tomasz (7/5): - Dobra cena, czysto, w porządku. Brak warzyw na śniadanie, kawa niezbyt smaczna.
• Sebastien (8/5): - Très bon rapport qualité prix. Idéal pour les groupes Toilettes sur le palier pour la seconde chambre
• Dah (7/5): C'était un bon séjour - Les prix est à la portée des résidents ayant des petits budgets J'ai généralement tout apprécié.
• Greg (10/5): - Jeugdherberg Hi Brussels Jacques Brel Hostel is een fijne en betaalbare plek om te verblijven in het hart van Brussel. De kamers zijn eenvoudig maar netjes, en de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes zorgen voor een gezellige, internationale sfeer. Het personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam, en het inbegrepen ontbijt is een mooie plus. Dankzij de centrale ligging zijn veel bezienswaardigheden gemakkelijk te voet bereikbaar. Ideaal voor jonge reizigers en budgetbewuste bezoekers die op zoek zijn naar een sociale en praktische overnachtingsplek. De ideale uitvalsbasis om BXL te ontdekken.
• Carolina (8/5): Hostel prou ben situat i on s'allotja gent de totes les edats - Està ben situat a 15 min a peu de la Grand place i amb línia de metro a menys de 5 min a peu on pots anar directament a la Gare du midi. Molt pràctic que tinguin habitacions familiars amb bany. L'esmorzar és senzill però correcte i el personal és amable. Per ser un hostel està bé. T'has de fer el llit i desfer-lo quan marxes, però no és un problema i està bé que els llençols estiguin inclosos (les tovalloles no ho estan però no són cares).
• Andrea (9/5): -
• Lea (7/5): -
• Melchor (9/5): - Ubicación
• Eleni (8/5): - Άνετο και καθαρό , κοντά στο κέντρο με μικρό αλλά ωραίο πρωινό! Το προσωπικό ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό!! Θα το ξαναπροτιμήσουμε!
• OussamaAyy (8/5): - Great facilities and common areas Bit expensive for a dorm.
