It takes 15 mins to Brussel central, not far and convenient.
Room is spacious and cozy. And it is safe to use the room card to open the main door of hostel.

After returning to Luxembourg, I chose to stay here again. This time the twin room is better than the last time, mainly because the layout is more convenient and reasonable.
There is a particularly speechless shortcoming. The water from the shower faucet does not spray around, but is concentrated in one point. It does not reach my body at all and flows along the pipe. In addition, you have to press the water switch every 3 seconds (I don’t know which weird design this is). Taking a shower is more tiring than climbing a mountain. I am in a hurry.

Amazing

For us, Brussels is only interesting in the square area. In other aspects, because we drive an RV, we need a parking area with RV equipment. It is best to be closer to the city center and leave after visiting the square. This youth hostel meets our needs, but there are limited parking spaces for RVs. Fortunately, the beds in the youth hostel are not expensive, and the two ladies in the same room are also very qualified. The breakfast is really great. It is a 20-minute walk from the square and 1.7 kilometers away. The hotel has parking. It’s free, and it’s rare to have both in the city center of Brussels where there are many Muslims.

It's fairly clean, and the breakfast is okay. I booked a room for 4 people, but I was the only passenger when I checked in, which is equivalent to living in a single room. The faucet and shower need to be pressed for a while, and it is a bit annoying to keep pressing when washing your face and taking a shower.

It's unbelievable what you offer for 33 euros. I asked to check the room before paying and they denied it to me. Then I found a bed with no curtains, I had to make it, the pillow was broken, there was a middle age man pretending to turn on the light at midnight, no towel. There is nothing where let the clothes hang.This has been the worst hostel so far in the worst country so far (Belgium). I wanted a reimbursement soon after but they said they couldn't. You have to update the hostel and lower the prices. You're also out of the city centre.

Nice stay with quick WIFI and spacious bathroom. Receptions were friendly and the equipments in hostel were quite sufficient (kitchen utensils' hygiene were a bit concerning). However, it was too hot to stay at room during summer without air-con and fan. As a hostel its really good already and so I would recommend it to budget travellers.

Great hostel. Perfect position near metro station Jardin Botanique. Clean and quiet. The rooms are shared and the toilet are frequently cleaned. Breakfast is enough rich. Perfect for light travellers.

Stayed here because it was fairly priced and only 10-15 mins walk from the city centre. It was clean and probably exceeded our expectations. Breakfast was pretty decent and included too.

I stayed in this hostel for two nights with a friend during summer. The rom was fine and clean, the beds were comfortable and there was a lot of space to organise the stuff on the backpack. The breakfast was really good, a lot of choice of food and also some typical ones. Unforunately the neighborhood wasn't very beautiful but I liked to stay there (15min to the city centre by foot)

The staff were very nice and the breakfast is very good. Be careful walking alone at night, especially as a woman since it is just out of the centre it is quiet and scary to be approached by men hitting on you.

when 4 friends arrived in Brussels for the weekend from the Netherlands, it was our preferred hostel. Although the road to the hostel is deserted late at night, apart from that, the center can be reached in a short time on foot, so it was very good in terms of location. since there are 4 of us, we preferred a quadruple room with a private bathroom. The toilet and bathroom were very clean, I recommend bringing soap with you. The room was clean and it was enough, we didn't need anything extra, as we had already entered only to sleep. The employees were very, very nice, especially the gentleman who helped us when we first checked in was very kind hearted! Thank you for everything, I would definitely recommend it.
