    The hostel was well run and very welcoming. It's great to have breakfast included and there was a good choice. It was also good to have a bar available in the evening.

    It was ideally located close to the centre. The room was basic, but very comfortable, great breakfast, good value for money, and the staff were very helpful and kind.

    The staff were great. They had some problem with the room and booked us in a 3 star hotel near by. Great atitude!

    Fabulous place, spotlessly clean in incredibly central, yet quiet, location. Thought at 67 I might be the oldest there but plenty of seniors at breakfast before the juniors left their bunks. Excellent breakfast too, the equal of a hotel three...

    Location, nice mix of people, all we needed for a short break. Well run and friendly. A very reasonable choice of foods for breakfast. Would definitely recommend it as a convenient and good value place to stay in Ghent.
