    Not the place for solo travellers, no social activities put on in the evening. More of a cheap hotel for families and school trips.

    Great location, comfortable beds and very clean.

    A bit empty for such a great place. The showers. Suggested improvements: new showers' head system. Individual curtains around the bunk beds, which some other YH have. Increases privacy and protection against light, especially at night.

    Friendly staff, modern building, historic center nearby, public transport & bike nearby. Good quality breakfast. Clean and spacious.

    - The decoration is a bit sterile, not a lot of personality. Cold and grey. - You have to make your own bed and bring sheets downstairs on checkout. - I get having to rent bath towels, but there was no handtowels or paper towels in the bathroom.

    - No nonsense hostel, you get what you paid for. - Great location and nice staff. - Bread, ceral, yogurt and coffee machine for breakfast.

    The shower. The water comes out in a very sharp manner.

    Modern, centric, clean, practical, functional, yet nothing essential was missing. Appreciated the ecolabel. The staff is super friendly and smiling. Especially a blond women who speaks perfectly Dutch, French and English. Cleaning staff also kind. Very good breakfast, plenty of teas and herbal infusions, also a good variety of quality bread and breadspreads.

    The only down part was that the showers were quite cold.

    The property was really nice and clean, it was especially good due to its location. The common ereas were super comfortable as well.

    In order to save water the showers were on a timer and you needed to continuously push the button to keep the water running. If only the timer was 10 seconds longer! It would have been a lot more convenient. But this is really not a problem at all.

    The rooms were very big and the toilet was separate from the shower, which is very convenient when sharing a room with people. The location is very nice and within walking distance from the city-centre. The hostel was clean and breakfast was good.

    N/A. The room only had dim lights, which was not a problem for us but worth noting.

    Very modern and well kept hostel. Massive social space with lots of fun things to do. Very very nice and helpful staff and the rooms itself were very clean, modern and has everything you’d need for a short stay.

    The building has many large windows and poor ventilation. Our room was very stuffy although the temperatures outside were not particularly hot. The shower was very temperamental and had to be activated at very short intervals. All in all, the value for money could have been better.

    The hostel is in a quiet street in walking distance to the historic centre. Everything is functional bordering on basic (breakfast, rooms, communal facilities).
