It’s clean, the dorms have just four beds and an en-suite shower. The breakfast is good.
Absolutely nothing about Jacques Brel except a plaque about the building being names in 1995. No photographs, no little record player playing his songs.

Cleanliness needs more attention, and the persistent smell of cannabis from the common area made it difficult to keep our room window open. Improving these areas would greatly enhance the guest experience.
