I had read reviews saying the hostel is great, but the showers suck, and I didn't think they could be that bad (some people seemed to have found them ok) but they really were the worse showers I've ever experienced. First the water is freezing, then it gets scalding hot for about a minute, then goes back to freezing for... more

I've stayed at this hostel 3 times now, can't really do better for location and price in Brugge. The staff are extremely helpful and the breakfast which is included is something a little more than plain cornflakes. The private rooms are OK, but the bathrooms are few and far between and can be pretty weak. All and all, beats forking... more

Terrible hostel. No hot water, really really dated inside. Bed even broke on one of the beds. Rough part of an otherwise sleepy town also. 5 people in the hostel got attacked on the Friday night. Go anywhere but here more

I chose the Lybeer Hostel for its central location and as a result of reading a number of positive reviews on this site, but I'm afraid to say it was a major disappointment. I booked a single room and it was given a room right next to the stairs on the first floor. The walls were paper thin so I... more

Good points: The location is fabulous, smack bang in the middle of it all. The staff are fantastic and can't do enough to help you. There are organised activities every night which is helpful for meeting people and it's quiet. The showers are clean. Breakfast is included with a decent selection. There is a phone and internet is free and... more

Arriving at the hostel we found the lady on reception very helpful, giving us a map of Bruges and explaining where the sites of interest are and useful info about the city. Unfortunately the room did not live up to this welcome. We had a double room with en suite, being a hostel I had expected it to be basic... more

The lady at reception was very helpful and friendly. The room was fine but could have been cleaner and don't forget to bring your pillows as they not great. One other thing i think the walls are a bit thin as you can hear people talking and banging around. The breakfast was not bad though. The best thing about the... more

This hostel is fantastic. Not a party hostel but still nice and social. It is an easy walk to the Railway Station and closer than any of the other hostels in town. We stayed for three nights in a twin room which was very clean and warm. The Showers were good and hot and seemed to be new (on the... more

We stayed with 12 American high school students and 2 teacher chaperones for one night in Bruges. We had three rooms. All the rooms were clean, warm and comfortable. Right in the Bruges city center. Breakfast was delicious, with something for everyone. Best of all were our hosts: Esa and Sara at the front desk, and Paul by email. All... more
