    The mattresses are not so great. The shower mechanism is a bit annoying.

    Front office staff is nice and kind. The location is great. The possibility to leave our luggage in a locked room after the check-out while we explore the city.

    Check-in was possible until 10.30pm. We arrived around 9.30pm and needed to ring a bell in order to enter the building. Unfortunately no one opened so we had to wait for another person staying in that hostel to let us in with their keycard. The receptionist (who was also the bartender) then had us wait another 10 minutes before checking us in because she wanted to finish washing the dishes first.

    Great Hostel. Very nice hosts, great breakfast buffet (included). Very clean rooms with private bathrooms. Overall great.

    However, the showers leave much to be desired. It consistits of a button that automatically shuts off the shower after 5 seconds. This makes any meaningful shower next to impossible, unless you like quick cold showers.

    It was nice that breakfast was included and was a buffet syle. And the hostel is in a good location with friendly and helpful staff. And well obviosuly the price is a huge plus.

    The shower is awful, I couldn't regulate the temperature and it doesn't have a normal shower head. Also the floor is quite cold, so better to use some slippers 😬

    Good location and nice breakfast (included in the price). The staff is very friendly and ready to help=) Also the opportunity to put your bags to a locker before check-in or after check-out is a very big bonus 🙂

    It was very very hot in the room in late December - can't imagine what it's like in summer. Conversely the shower was cold on 2/3 days. The WiFi didn't work. Under the bed was very dusty which I only realised after sliding my bag underneath and finding it covered in dust! Wouldn't have taken much to clean under the bed!

    Good location. Comfortable beds with a power outlet and reading lamp. Nice bar. Pleasant breakfast.

    Too expensive for the service offered

    • Twin Room with Private Bathroom
    • Stayed 1 night

    Towels are available for rent and linens are included but they were vey old and with stains. The room was dirty because we found hair everywhere and the shower was tricky.

    It's a Hostel so you shouldn't expect something so cozy and nice but for that price I was expecting more. At the beginning it was cold inside but thanks to the boy at the reception the heaters work really well afterwards. The breakfast was good but with few choices.

    The only downside was the shower, as you have to press a button every 30 seconds to keep the water flowing. This was fine for a normal shower, but complicated when we needed to wash our hair.

    The hostel is very clean, in the common areas and the rooms. Comfortable beds and central location. The breakfast is also of a good quality.

    The shower never got hot and some of the water came more out of the wall instead of the shower head. We only had one night stay, so it was ok.

    Very friendly and helpfull staff. Good solid breakfast. Quit room, no noise. Location perfect - center of Antwerpen.

    The bathroom had no ventilation. And there were some insects in our room. It was a bit solitaire hostel.

    The room was quite big, the hostel seemed more like a hotel. There was free water at the entrance. Sofas and living room was great. Even there were some musical instruments and books. Breakfast was good.
