All we needed located in a nice area
The hotel was in a nice location. We enjoyed the “back streets” it was located in, it was quite a hipsterish area. We had food and beers in a few bars and it was very pleasant and quiet. The hotel itself felt a little dated but had all the necessary amenities and plenty of space in the room and it was clean. My only concern about the hotel was that our bedroom door didn’t lock too well. The breakfast was also nice with plenty of options.

Could be better.
First of all the room I booked was a female only dorm which was wasnt lksted on the website upon booking. They were able to put me in a male dorm. THe room looked nothing like the pictures on the website. The place wasn’t run down and looked like it might have Brennan nice several years ago. The bathroom was dirty. The buffet breakfast was quoted lovely.

overall nice stay
Overall nice, wifi works well in the room, good varieties for breakfast. but only one bathroom with toilet in a room shared by 8 people. So depends on your luck you may have to wait for a while sometimes. Surrounding neighborhood may look a bit dodgy.

Good and Bad
Booked two nights in a dorm - first night was placed in a single room instead, but it did not look like anything that was posted online. I had an early morning flight after the second night and was planning on walking to the train station nearby to get to the airport, but the area made me uncomfortable and I didn’t want to walk alone at that hour so I didn’t end up staying the second night. I did see the room that I had originally booked as I was supposed to stay there the second night, and it was just as expected! Staff was friendly as well.

ベッドが備え付けでしっかりしていました!カーテンもコンセントも電気も付いていたのでよかったです。バスルームは全部一緒のタイプの部屋でしたが、ドライヤーもついていました。全体的に古い感じはしますが、コスパはいいかと思います。朝食もホステルの割にはしっかりしてました。周辺の治安は悪そうだったので、夜遅く出歩く方にはおすすめ出来ませんが。

ブリュッセル南駅に近くて便利
グランプラスから小便小僧を経て、ほぼ一本道が分かりやすいロケーションのホステル。日本からクレジット払いで予約を入れたのに、宿で宿泊料金をまるまる請求され、「もう引き落とされてますけど。。。」と言ったら、いろいろ調べて対処してくれたフロントの対応は、客を信用しているようでよかった。あてがわれた部屋は別棟で、カーテンのない病院のようなベッド(2段)は写真のイメージと違うなぁと感じたものの、部屋にあるシャワー・トイレは広く使いやすく特に不満はない。スマートフォンを持っていないので電波の具合は分らないが、同室の西洋人女性はスマートフォンをずっと使っていた。翌朝は7時から始まる種類豊富な朝食をゆっくり食べて、始発列車の多い南駅を出る7時45分の列車に間に合った。チェックアウトはフロントの箱にキーを放り込むだけのセルフタイプで、時間に余裕がない人には嬉しい。
