This hostel was exceptionally clean and the staff were very nice. It has a wonderful common area and a well-equipped kitchen. I very much enjoyed staying here.

Very lovely hostel! Clean rooms and common area, the breakfast is a great deal as well. Staff were incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Their backyard is a beautiful spot to hang out in. The location is very close to the Flixbus station as well as to the local transport. Would absolutely come back here the next time I'm in Ghent.

The only problem was that there was no elevator and the spiral staircase was not a fun to climb with heavy luggages. Other than that, everything was good. No ac but they provided a powerful fan. Some lockers were not working properly. Toilet slightly smells but overall fairly clean. Staff friendly. Some of us arrived outside of reception time (arrived between noon and 1pm) but the staff still opened front door for us to leave our luggage. The kitchen is nice and clean.
Hostel bem localizado, um dos poucos na Europa que servem cafรฉ da manhรฃ. O atendente argentino muito prestativo e me auxiliou muito pois nรฃo sou fluente em inglรชs. Tem uma sala com TV รฉ uma รกrea para interagir com os outros hรณspedes. Sรณ achei o quarto muito quente ( me hospedei no verรฃo).
The room and other common areas didn't seem to be very messy, but the bed slept in had ticks and got lots of bites all over my body during the night.

As good as an hotel.
I stayed with a friend in a double room which was surprisingly clean and with all the services that a hotel provides (even better than some others where we stayed) Highly recommended !

Good Hostel near city centre
Well located hostel around 15 minutes or less to the city centre on foot. Good sized lockers for personal items as well. Service is good, too. Before you book, make sure you know the hours the front desk is staffed for check-in.
