The blankets were terribly dirty, they only change the coating of the blanket and the blanket as such was very very dirty

The sfaff were nice and helpful. The location definitely the best and they provide a nice breakfast (bread, cheese, salami, coffee) which is great!
The music that is so loud around the hostel (understand bcs of the location), but what make it worse was during the weekend they opened the club downstairs 😭 I couldn’t sleep until the music stop, which was around 3/4 am! The toilet is limited, it does not have a good ventilation, so it smells bad 😭

In the middle of all the night life I wanted to explore and easy access to the central station and fashion district

A good balance between price and quality. It was an affordable and convenient option for an overnight stay after the concert. If you’re staying in hostels, be prepared: good earplugs and an eye mask are essential for a comfortable night.
Check-in at 16:00 felt a bit late. A time around 14:00 or 15:00 would be much more convenient. The breakfast is served a bit late, so it’s not ideal for guests who need to leave around 7:00 am.

Hostel suits for people that puts value for central location.
Hostel is located in the building that has a night club. My room was in the fourth floor but you can feel the beat and sing along in your bed at 3am.

Cleanliness, nice personnel, and location are the strong points!
However, the breakfasts has very poor options and low variety... there are sockets in the room but sometimes I wasn't able to use the lower socket and the upper socket is useless to put your phone...And also keep in mind that there is a lot of noise sometimes with the clubs around, so keeping the window open overnight is not a good idea (but I was in August, and couldn't endure a hot and stinky air). I would say it's a good choice, but perhaps the possibility to choose without breakfast would have been better since it was a bad option and not worthy at all to eat apples, cheap cereals and cheap cheese with bread...Definitely, a higher variety and better tastes for this... moreover, the sheets you receive for the blanket, mattress and pillow are uncomfortably oversized, lol, just to make sure they will not shrink too much from washing, that's incredible!

Location, Room was clean, bathroom was okay. Showers were also Okay
Overall Okay
The location is good, but thats also a negative point,especially in the summers when you want to open the window beacuse its hot inside the room, but cannot open the window beacuse since the hostel is right in the centre so its very loud,parties happening right under the hostel and right across the street . So thats the only issue, apart from that everything was ok

Location and the staff was really friendly
During the night was really hot even though the window was open and the showers were very dirty. Also there were blinking lights in the male showers that were really uncomfortable.

Location is good.
Very dirty, the noise from the club below is so loud you feel like you’re sleeping inside the club. Washrooms are the worst.

Being in the centre of antwerp was great
Will never stay there again over the weekend.
Very noise during the night and when the music stops around 04.00am it's still a long time before it goes quiet but then around 06.00am - 07.00am they start emptying the glass containers. Even all the noise during the night and morning came true my sleeping aids. Just being honest

Perfect location. Right in the very centre of the city. The cathedral is right next door, so you can literally look at it from your bathroom window. The breakfast is also good, and the checkout time is decent. Not too early, like in some places...
The bunk beds in the dormitory are a bit squeaky, though the mattress is comfy. You have to make your own bed when you arrive (sheets, pillow case, duvet, etc.)
For early sleepers, it can get a bit too loud on the weekends. The nightclub downstairs is open until 3AM and can get very crowded, with a lot of crowd actually hanging in front of the hostel. During the week it's fine though, the city is calmer and quieter.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOSTEL!!! (go to yust!)
The room was cold and dirty. Couldn’t ask for new sheets if you arrive late as no staff work pasted 8pm. Found a dead bug in my room also. Some strange screaming noises coming from up stairs like someone was possessed.
The basement which is the common room has a lot of broken fridges in it which makes it smell like gone off food. Which also make it dead. Lovely existence.
If this wasn’t enough one of the members of staff which seem like a teenager was extremely rude when asking me to pay. He didn’t have enough patience to let me confer with the app as it said I had already paid. When I show him this he refused to look and started swearing and yelling at me in another language!
Instead the yelling teenager could have work with each other to get to the bottom of it cuz I didn’t wanna pay twice!
Would never go back there again, recommend booking somewhere else. :)

Staff is very friendly! Average breakfast and lovely that it’s included. Showers were clean and the sinks too.
Unfortunately I wasn’t expecting a sleepless night in spite of wearing earplugs (please bring good ones). I think the hostel should mention that on weekends there’s a literal club nearby or downstairs along with the already extremely loud and noisy square in front of the building. The excruciating noise and bumping music went on until 6 am! The beds are also wobbly and squeaky. The smell in the room was also bad all the time.

It’s a very nice place to stay. It’s not too far from the city center, and the staff are very friendly. The property is clean, and breakfast is included in the price, which is a great bonus. However, it can be a bit noisy at night due to nearby bars, which made it a little difficult to sleep. Despite that, I stayed for five days and really enjoyed my time there.
Just the noise from nearby bars which made it difficult to sleep.

Excellent location in that beautiful place, just near to the tram and all the restaurants / bars / shops.
Came to party nearby so music and noises are not a problem for me, otherwise bring your earplugs indeed haha
Staff was super kind, free breakfast, its great for that value.
Will come back as always when I crash in Antwerp. 👍

The location is central and there is a cool common area in the basement. Still- don’t stay here.
I had an awful stay here. It was way too loud at night until about 4/4:30am- I know it is because of the location but there is no real warning about it. Reception closes at 8pm so you cannot get any help past then. They provide phone numbers to call when reception are closed but I tried calling both numbers (at only 8:45pm) as I needed some help but no one picked up. There was 1 toilet with no windows/ventilation so it was horrible anytime I needed to go. The showers were poor. Check in is extremely late (4pm). The dorm rooms were tiny and they put 7 of us in an already small 6-person dorm. Even though it seems cheap, it is still expensive for the poor service and amenities.

It's well located, only 20 minutes far from the station and on the grote markt of Antwerp
the place was quite dirty with a strange smell sometimes. The showers and sinks were full of hair. And don't forget to take a padlock for the locker.

The hostel location was great, just right in the downtown, which means many tourist places close to it. Besides, the hostel staff was really kind. Breakfast was incredibly generous and delicious. At night, the atmosphere in the hostel sorroundings is so alive. However, noise was not an issue inside the hostel.
I do not award the hostel with 10 points because near my bed there was neither a socket nor a bed lamp.

Location on the square, dining options, and estuary; reasonbly priced; old yet funky; breakfast included; free storage after check out
No WiFi in downstairs dining/lounge area; lockers in room were too thin for my luggage.
