Bien
Pros:

Buena ubicación y camas cómodas

Cons:

Siempre que volvíamos por al noche no nos abría la puerta y teníamos que bajar. El personal de recepción no era tan agradable . Por las mañanas las limpiadoras entraban a la habitación sin tocar la puerta .

Schmudeliges Hostel an centraler Lage.
Pros:

Die Lage sowie das Personal waren die einzigen positiven Punkte.

Cons:

Es war laut, man hörte die Leute von den Nebenzimmern als auch den Strassen, das Inventar ist in die Jahre gekommen, alles knarzt laut (Schliessfächer, Böden, Betten), Teppiche sind dreckig, auf unserem Toast beim Frühstück war Schimmel und was mich am Meisten störte, war, dass trotz E-Mail ans Management niemand auf unsere Anliegen eingegangen ist oder darauf reagiert hat.

Pros:

La situación

Cons:

Era algo similar a un albergue juvenil.
Llegaban grupos y grupos de jóvenes que colapsaban la entrada. Siempre había cola para el check in.
Hacía mucho calor en la habitación. Solo había una ventana en el techo que habría estado bien si no fuese porque entraba directa al humo de la chimenea de los restaurantes y se llenaba de olor a comida

Unforgettable experience
Pros:

Location was perfect; short walking distance to the cathedral and Central station (train station); lively shopping streets and bustling atmosphere all around the hotel during December.

Cons:

The walls were too thin, we could hear noises from the neighboring rooms.

Vale o preço que cobra.
Pros:

Excelente localização, quarto com bom tamanho e banheiro excelente.

Cons:

Se quiser ventilação, precisa deixar a janela aberta e conviver com o barulho das ruas. Se fechar a janela, o desafio vira a temperatura interna.

PÉSIMA!
Pros:

Solo la ubicación

Cons:

Colchón súper finito, no pudimos dormir ya que toda la noche las habitaciones de al lados estaban gritando mucho y nadie hacía NADA.
Carísimo para la cama y la incomodidad

Bon rapport qualité prix (chambre de 4, une nuit)
Pros:

L'emplacement est vraiment top ! Pour 3€ j'ai pu laisser mon sac avant de récupérer la chambre et j'ai eu accès à une salle de bain. Le personnel est agréable.

Cons:

La taille d'une chambre pour 4 est assez petite mais ça fait le travail pour une nuit ou deux si vous avez prévu de ne pas y passer beaucoup de temps.

Pros:

Location very good

Cons:

Early check in said it was possible paying a fee which I agreed and after many hours of travelling and arriving way before the normal check In thinking was able to rest before friends arrived it was said a bit arrogantly that such thing as early check in didn’t exist

Room full of dust

A lot a noise during the night inside building and outside

Nice hostel in Brussels
Pros:

It is well located, 24 hours. All clean, your own bathroom so you don’t have to share with anyone. The girl at the reception is so kind and speaks multiple languages n

Cons:

The bed makes so much noise, and it’s not very comfortable, it’s hard to sleep in there. Also the walls are so thin that you can hear every single noise from the other bedrooms.
