Overall, the stay was not too bad. If not for some inconveniences, I would have rated this hostel better. First, the nearest Metro exit was under renovation. As a result, I need to detour quite a fair bit to get into the Metro station. It is ok without luggage, but with luggage, it is much more challenging with cobblestone road. Second, this is the first hostel which I paid for twin room and was not provided with towel. While my app stated that the towel is included, the receptionist told me that I need to pay to rent the towel. A bit disappointed. Thankfully, I have my own beach towel.

The front desk disappeared at 8pm and I had to wait in the lobby for an hour to check in. All other facilities are very good, there is luggage storage, the room and bathroom are clean and tidy, and it is a very comfortable stay.

The bar on the first floor is very lively, and I think it's perfect for party lovers. The rooms and bathrooms are relatively clean and comfortable. It's a shame that the shared kitchen only has one pot and no bowls or plates. The location is good, so it's easy to get to other spots.

The location is okay, there are no people in the block, and it feels safer than next to the subway station. It's less than half an hour's walk from the EU headquarters and the Manneken Pis. The staff are quite enthusiastic Facilities: There is no free secure package storage service. Packages can be stored in the basement room, but if you don't have a lock, it can only be stored with the door open, which is not safe. It costs 4 euros to buy a lock from him (I always think that hotel storage is The service should be free, but I am disappointed that this hotel does not have it). I could only wait until three o'clock to check in and take my bag to the room. Of course, there was no locked cabinet in the room😊 There are six beds, including two separate small beds. You can choose whatever you want when you arrive early. There are windows, sirens are constantly sounding, two toilets, and a bathroom. Because I stayed for two days, based on my observation, they provide bed sheets, etc., but the quilts are not changed, only the sheets are changed. If you cover yourself with a quilt directly, it is equivalent to covering yourself with a quilt that has been covered by a person. The overall experience is average. If you are not alone, you would not stay here.
