    The value for money, 50€ per night was high for a dorm, I think it should be a bit less (it’s not in the city center)

    The location was good, 8 minutes walk from the metro station to city center (the staff told me that at night to be aware for pickpockets, but I didn’t encounter any), the room was nice and clean, my roommates did some noise all night but that’s not the property fault.

    The young people noises in the corridor at night Not much choices for the breakfast.

    Everything, from the staff, the cleanliness of the room, comfy bed. I really enjoy my short stay there. The hotel is situated at a location with easy access to transport. I'll definitely coming back.

    The only dislike was the single bed near the wall in the 3-bed room. That gave me a backache and wasn't comfortable at all. My kids were okay in the other twin beds.

    The hotel was amazing in all aspects. Location, facilities, service, staff, everything was top notch. The vibe inside the hotel was good.

    As the shower and toilet is in the same room as the beds, you are easily woken up when someone uses these. The lockers were quite shallow. Don’t really understand why there are two single beds right next to eachother in the room, some sort of curtain in between would be nice.

    Clean and comfortable bed and towels. Good breakfast for 11,9€. Even though there was a large and very loud party going on when I arrived, I heard nothing of it in the room even though the room was on the first floor.

    I couldn't fault this hostel.

    This hostel was very welcoming, the staff were amazingly helpful, it was clean in all areas, was great to be able to eat at the bar. Beds were AHMAZINGLY comfy! Breakfast was delicious and a great range of food. I would definitely stay here again.

    It was reasonably pricey for what was a fairly basic hotel in comfort terms.

    Liked the vibe and that it was very clean. The shower was very good. We liked the bar too though there was only one member of staff on duty and he was rushed off his feet.

    Check in procedures were a bit confused (I arrived a couple hours before but instead of collecting my documents and let me fill all forms to attend faster when needed, the one on frontdesk said no extra procedures were needed). Each room doesn't have its own key to unlock electricity, so if you are in a shared room, someone place its key and needs to leave, everyone who remains inside get heating/cooling and lights off. They should also offer bookings with breakfast included - they're good but not sure if worth the amount claimed.

    Hostel with hotel structure, well placed, very clean and organized. A short walk from several transport options, including from/to airport and train stations. My bedroom had its own restroom, which was great. Also had 2-single beds with no bunkbeds over, giving a bit more privacy even in a shared room.

    I wish there was a small fridge at least for the private rooms. Upon parking my car the barrier doesn’t go up unless you get out and ask reception which stopped cars behind me from entering. My room was located perfectly at the end of the hall but there are floors and rooms that are shared and could be heard from down the hall quite loudly. The restaurant attached did not have many options available for food, only snacks and slices of pizza.

    The location was very good! The private room I had was very comfy with a decent sized bathroom.

    Staff are not so much helpful compared to other hostels I've been to before.And the beam in the dorm stuck with head every time with people who seat in upper bed.

    Mentioned by batch in every stuff'’s dress in which languages they can speak.The card system for activated lift also great

    1) machine DIY ..Sometimes is Meininger reception pretty full (mostly during check-in group trips) yesterday I was there alone, but maybe try "check in yourself" system, machine is not very complicated and fir advanced travellers should be this procedure safe time. Do it yourself check in machine must be installed in good spot, without windy or rainy attack cause if smbd has in one hand umbrella in other mobile phone, between teeth ID and keyboards of machine pushing by nose...it's not easy and comfy nevertheless in huge rain and strong wind ... 2) beds should have curtain for visual and emotional barrier like in Christopher In, it's good and not very expensive idea, cause watch in the morning 6 sleepy roommates, semi-naked, or sleepy girls should be a bit embarrassed 😳 3) breakfast...eggs during breakfast should be warm whole time, cca 9:35 was cold and in the morning in sleepy mood, nobody has interest looking for machine for it, if there is one. I put eggs on hot warm toast and it helps a little. Hard to say what is wrong, this hostels chain looks really good fir short stay and personal was kind and helpful, maybe served Bavaria beer or more Germans product if chain is from Germany, (smoked sausage, wurst, bread with good homemade butter, vegetable fish soup) many people from Germany were there or Belgique... cause pizza is originally Italian staff ...but was pretty good

    Hard to say, because Meininger has probably same or similar quality, relatively high standard. Very good bar or restaurant, I order very late very good pizza and large beer, everything was 10/10 and personal great. Atypically carpets made good corridor design, comfort bathroom in room and relatively comfy room, although was from 80 percent full. This Meininger is a little far from center, used metro station "Lord from Flanders" but short walk around channel was pretty. Looks like hostel is former factory, textile or brewery, hard to say, one floor is for games, was pretty busy there. Breakfast was good for 11.90 euros, chocolate, juice, caffe, yoghurt, toasts, eggs pretty big choice, eggs should be warm for whole breakfast time, about ten, cca 9:35 were eggs pretty cold... very calm, silent part of the town, close the channel and big yard for sitting outside...

    Bot that it's much of a complaint, but I found the single beds in the dormitories to be a little narrow. The bed was comfortable enough, but just a little narrow.

    Affordable hotel. Decent facilities.
