Brxxl 5 City Centre Hostel

Staff very rudeness

Großartig, Mitarbeiter sind nett, ich empfehle immer

Really good location, was close to the station & the town. Staff were friendly & so were the occupants but there weren't any curtains on the beds which was slightly unexpected but other than that it was decent.

Ich habe das nicht erwartet, ich habe vor zwei Tagen gebucht und an dem selben Tag, an dem ich zum Zielland gefahren bin, habe eine Email bekommen dass meine Buchung storniert worden ist,warum? Keine Ahnung, damit Sie Bescheid wissen dass ich in Deutschland wohne, wie kann ich vorher im Hostel erscheinen? Obwohl ich schon die Buchung bezahlt habe

Avevo prenotato in camera condivisa; quando sono arrivato mi hanno detto che, siccome ero over 40, non era possibile. Ho preso una camera singola al terzo piano e l'unico bagno era 4 piani sotto, nell'interrato. Per fortuna, reduce da un'esperienza simile non avevo lasciato abbastanza denaro nella prepagata perché avevano provato a prenderlo. Poi, naturalmente, ho pagato con un'altra carta. Dirlo prima no?

Je recommande cet établissement les yeux fermer !

Good hostel but not many things to do in it. Great location

The people that work there treat you really bad, we were 3 females traveling together and they left us all felling very uncomfortable. One of our beds had a lock that didn’t work and the rooms and the corridor had all a terrible smell. It was overall a really bad experience we don’t recommend anyone staying there especially woman.

everything smelled like pee and there were only men there who were very very rude. The people and the atmosphere was terrible. Do not recommend.

For the price, it’s a good place to stay. The room was very clean and the bathroom too, the only thing that I should add is that there are no curtains on each bed which gives you less privacy. Specially, if someone wakes up earlier than you or arrive late, however I had a good experience overall and it’s not very far from the city center. I was traveling solo and I didn’t have any problems walking alone during the night to the hostel. it’s also very close to the Midi train station.

Por 100€ la noche creo podríamos tener al menos toallas en la habitación. Sin TV, ni toallas y se puede decir que tampoco había wifi, ya que la señal era tan débil que no podíamos usarlo, 100€ me parece excesivo. Por ese precio podemos elegir alojamientos con los servicios que no hemos tenido en este, por lo que no repetiría en las mismas condiciones calidad/ precio.

It was fine. Beds are good and the room was cleanish. I wouldn’t recommend if you want to connect with new people tho. Everyone was really by themselves and the common area doesn’t give much for a place to connect.

Showers were awful, located in a dodgy area, although close to city centre (Brussels isn’t that big anyway). Workers were okay.

I booked a Dorm but when I arrived I was too old to be accommodated in a Dorm (no over 40's). This was in the confirmation email in small print but it should have been highlighted during the booking process. The option of a refund was offered but they will know that it would be difficult to book another at short notice. They gave me a single (incredibly small) room on the 5th Floor (no ensuite available), no coat hangers and no mirror. The shower/toilet was in the basement (6 floors down).

Nice for a couple of nights Comfy enough bed in the 4 ppl female dorm, clean bathroom and not far walk to the city center Unfortunately the neighborhood doesn't feel safe for a girl at night on her own The general coziness of the place could be improved: no curtain on the bed, no space on top bunk to put down some stuff (small shelf for phone and water bottle for example), very loud lockers... There is no common room where to sit down and chill: some tables downstairs but very dry and sparse

Aggressive night staff member called Mohamed. Avoid this hostel for your own good. I left 3 nights early because of his aggressive behaviour. He turned off the common-area lights without any warning while I was there. When I asked for an explanation, he reacted by shouting and provoking me. I told him I was going to call the police, and he returned with another staff member to continue being provocative and dismissive. It was only when I started recording that he changed his attitude. Avoid it.

There is no refrigerator and kitchen. The wifi sucks. This hostel is fine if you do not need these.
