“Good location-Thats about it!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Good location in the centre of Brugge,with all the sites close by. However apart from a young girl on reception who smiled and was helpfull, the owners were cold and unfriendly. The room was appealing at first glance,nicely decorated and roomy, however when we returned in the evening that was when the noise started. The floors are laminated so you could here every foot fall in the other rooms, and the walls were thin so you here toilet noises!. The bed was soft and uncomfortable with a cushion style pillow which didnt help.

Breakfast was poor, little choice, no pastries for a continental breakfast and the owner kind of peered around the corner as if reluctant to ask us if we wanted tea or coffee. The entrance door was open so was drafty while we ate.
We asked to leave our bags as we were early for check in which the young girl said was fine but were left in the dining area which was not very secure as the door was left open and we was told the front door was locked at 6pm.

“cramped rooms, uncourteous staff. definitely one to avoid”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 October 2010

person found this review helpful

The room was so small that it was suffocating. we paid for four beds but two people had to sleep on a flimsy sofa-bed.... the room had 2 tiny windows from which you could not even pop your head out.
the stairs to get to the room were super dangerous.... + with luggage.. definitely think safety hazard..
When we asked for a change of room we were met with uncourteous staff, who suggested that we check out and find another hotel with a bigger room.
Come to that, they even charged my credit card without informing me before checkout contrary to what had been promised
definitely one to avoid

“Great little budget hotel - what more could you want?!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2010

person found this review helpful

This hotel was placed only 5 mins from the train station, just off the main road. It is only 5 mins walk to everything (as Bruges is so small, I suspect this is true of most hotels). I would say that the room and breakfast was well worth the price, and they let us keep our bags there until 2pm the next day.

Our room was clean and tidy and suited us perfectly. We didn't dine at the hotel, but it is also a restaurant, so you could eat there as well. The staff spoke perfect English (but again, so does everyone) and were very smiley and helpful. It wasn't noisy at all because the rooms back onto a quiet side street. There were quite steep stairs though, so I wouldn't recommend it if you have mobility problems.

Anyone going to Bruges, I would recommend the Poules Moules restaurant on Simon Stevinplein (2 mins from this hostel) - the steak was amazing! And anyone who enjoys beer should try the Brugse Zot lager.

“Perfect hotel for a city break”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2010

I stayed here for 3 nights. It was clean and comfortable. The room was a little small but we have nice ceiling to floor double doors that opened onto a little patio area. Sadly our room was a little dark as not much natural light coming in but not too much of a problem. The hotel staff were neither friendly nor rude. The man gave us a discount card for attaractions and that was our only real dealings with him. We never went down for breakfast, as like in most hotels it's served too early.
The hotel is in a excellent location and pretty much everything in Bruges is within walking distance.
The hotel also has it's own bar that has seats out on "t zand" however we found this tended to shut quite early,
The big downfall for the hotel is the noise from other guests. The room doors are all very close together so you can hear everything when people ar e coming and going.
Yes the stairs are very very steep and narrow, my boyfriend actually fell all the way down them giving himself some quite nasty bruises.
I would recommend this hotel as i found it clean and comfortable and in a good location

“Awful, awful,awful”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2010

people found this review helpful

Don't stay here if you can help it. Small, cramped, mouldy smelling. Very expensive for next to no ammenities!!! We had booked 2 nights in this hotel but escaped after one.
We had the windows open at night and the noise from the street below, including a disco that went on until about 4am, kept us awake all night. What a nightmare! The breakfast was awful and the owners not very friendly. We escaped and found a beautiful hotel in a better location for about 15 euros more.
