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.

Bug bites

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.
