Location and view were great, room was good too. The staff was really kind and hospitable.
The doors of the rooms are designed so bad that whenever someone would enter, the door would make an annoying noise which wakes you up, so you have a good sleep here. Except paying for a bed and sheets, most of the things in hostel such as towels or a luggage lockers you have to pay extra which I find terrible. Also, at the reception you don't get a duvet cover, but another sheet that you cover yourself with first and then you cover yourself with a duvet (without a cover for it ofc) over it, very unhygienic and I have never experienced this kind of "hospitality". The showers were constantly smelling bad. Another backside is that you don‘t get a physical key for entering a hostel, staircase, bathroom and room, but you get it on e-mail as digital key so you always have to keep your phone and charger with you and it makes you to minimize using your phone while you want to make a photos, videos or simply engage in a video call with someone. Not to mention that whenever you stop at a bar or restaurant for a break you have to ask for charging your phone. Modern, but not functional and smart nor relaxing.

We werden ontvangen door Brian bij de receptie en het was meteen gezellig! Wat een hartelijk ontvangst en gelijk wat uitleg over waar we heen moesten. En de locatie is echt adembenemend mooi!
Ik miste wel een wasbak op de kamer.

amazing location of the hostel in the middle of the historical place. The equipment was wonderful, the social place was aesthetic and always full of people. The kitchen had all the necessary equipment. Beautiful view from the window. Beds comfortable. There is an extra charge for towels. If you want to use the locker, bring your own lock.
there was no lock for the locker available

Çalışanlar güler yüzlüydü, konumu çok iyiydi, etraftaki her yere yakındı, odamın manzarası muhteşemdi.

La ubicación es increíble, con una vista impresionante. Desde que llegué me recibieron muy bien, el chico de la recepción super amable. Las instalaciones son muy buenas y modernas, hay para lavar tu ropa eso me sirvió un montón.
Lo único que podría decir es que no hay buena aislación del ruido tanto de afuera como el de adentro, ya que al ser un edificio antiguo con piso de madera se sienten los pasos. Pero no fue un tema relevante en comparación a todo lo bueno que tiene. Sin dudas volvería

Perfect location with excellent walking tours that start outside the front of the hostel. Really friendly staff (especially Brian) and great facilities including lockers for luggage storage.
Nothing I didn't really like!

* Nice location in the heart of the old town next to the river
* Very friendly staff
* I would have liked sheets that could cover the duvet, the sheets I got were not made to insert the duvet in.
* bed linen that would stay easily on the mattress, the linen where large enough to tuck under the mattress, but it came of during the night.

Good central location with character
Not directly connected with the property except that I was unaware that the Ghent festival was on and that the hostel was only a few meters from loud sound stages playing until the early hours of the morning

Location, comfy of bed, selection of private room available
The cleanliness of the toilet was off (compare to my previous stay few years back) Hairdryer could be better

The staff is absolutely wonderful, help me to carry my luggage, the shower is big and clean. Amazing location and you can leave your luggage the the lockers with small fee.
The view outside is absolutely unforgettable. Will be back!
The top bunk is a bit hard to go up and not very easy to charge stuff.
