Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There were too few bathrooms for the number of guests in the hostel. And then it was pot luck if the water was hot or not. The included breakfast was a joke, two options, take it or leave it. Some mornings breakfast didnt eventuate at all. No lift, and the stairs were so steep, that they wouldnt comply with today's building code, and with the worn carpet, the stairs were an accident waiting to happen. Definitely NOT value for money, I would not stay there again

Nice, clean hostel in the centre. 10 minutes walk to train / Bus station. Friendly staff. Lively atmosphere. There is no lift but that's common with many central properties as due to their special bulding status change is not permitted.

It’s ok

I stayed in a 2 female room which is big enough for 2 people with luggages, and it has a washing basin. It’s an old building so don’t expect elevator. The lobby is quit small, I didn’t enjoy hanging out there.

An Ok place!

Room was good and comfortable! I just didn’t like that you have to make your bed and put things together and take them off. Hello, that’s what are you paying for. Also no elevator and if you get the top floor like it happen to me is a lot of stairs.

Theirs no AC or even a fan in the room. Got way to hot between 11am-4pm that we had to leave. Everything is over priced and for that alone they should install AC units in their rooms. Shame on the owners

Needs maintenance

The Lybeer Hostel was in a very good location. For those wanting an ensuite double room, a hotel would be much better value. The hostel is in a lovely old building but carrying suitcases up 3 very steep flights of stairs with banisters that are broken in parts and held together with scaffold poles and extremely threadbare carpet is very dangerous. Rooms are all upstairs. A lift would be great. Unfortunately we got caught booking on a holiday weekend.

This hostel was central and walkable to the tourist spots. No lift. Stayed on second floor 4 bed female room which was ok. Provided tea and coffee. Didn't like the stairs. Had to make your own bed and remove bedding and bring it back downstairs on departure day.

We booked a double room with private WC although it is a hostel with lots of share rooms. It is at the top of the hostel, you have to go up and down through a very narrow stairs. No elevator. it is always crowded in the reception during checkin and checkout time. As a hostel, it is quite organised with reasonable number of bathrooms and toilets. Equipped Kitchen and free tea coffee. sometimes kitchen is a bit messy after the usage as it is shared with many travellers. Would be great if more hair dryers are available to borrow.

Sehr niedliches Hostel in einem historischen Gebäude mitten im Herzen von Brügge, eine Seitenstraße vom geschäftigem Treiben auf der Haupteinkaufsstraße entfernt. Zudem vom Bahnhof in nur 13 Minuten zu erreichen. Nette Gemeinschaftsräume mit Sonnenterasse und super nette Leute ( sowohl Angestellte als auch Gäste). Einzelzimmer war super sauber, Bett bequem und ruhig zum Hof gelegen:)
