Reviews for Sleep Well Youth Hostel

Review 1:We really disliked the lock out that leaves you out of your room from 11 to 15 pm for cleaning reasons. Even if we had paid for only two nights, we still had to let someone in our room to clean it up (just sweep the floor, not even make the beds). We felt unsecure because in fact the hotel pointed out very clearly that they are not responsible for any losts. The cleaning lady was very unpleasant and hard on us and the morning recepcionist didnt really listen to our situation.

Review 2:Nice beds, shower, clean, Chris at the reception was very nice, unlike the rest of the personal.

Review 3:Sitting areas within the hostel and bathrooms were very unhygienic. The drain in the shower was blocked. There was nowhere to hang your clothes or towel in the bathroom.

Review 4:Reception and kitchen staff were very helpful and friendly. Location is good, within walking distance to Grand Place and to Gare Du Nord and Metro station.

Review 5:The USB cables slots near my bed didn't work. No sink with the loo was annoying.

Review 6:The location was amazing!!!!! Right near the shopping centre and the sights!!! Bed was comfy. WiFi was good. Felt clean. Plus the steps to the bunk could also be used as shelves.

Review 7:Lockout period every day between 11-3 where your keys don't work and you can't access your rooms. Also the rooms kind of smells funny if you don't open the windows.

Review 8:Good location close to metro. The beds were comfortable.

Review 9:-bedwas so low. So better to stay upper bed!

Review 10:- breakfast was so nice. Best breakfast among hostel! - clean. - nice location. 15mins away from the squre. But at nice little bit dark place.

Review 11:No shampoo and lotion and no drinking water in the room , no tower and slipper

Review 12:Clean, tidy and comfortable , the working staff here nice, the situation here is good

Review 13:It was a little far from the central station by foot.

Review 14:Facilities were far superior to other hostels. Also breakfast was a buffet style. Low cost for a lot of things.

Review 15:There are no sinks in the bathroom! In my room we had our own shower room (with two showers and two sinks) and toilet room (with one toilet and nothing else). That means that I couldn't go the the toilet when someone had locked the shower room (all morning)... Also, the bottom bunk bed is tiny and I hit my head really hard several times in the night.

Review 16:It's right next to the big shopping street in Brussels, and takes maybe 15 min to walk to Grand Place and Mannekin pis. The breakfast is free and quite good.

Review 17:Parts of the building seem to be in temporary remodeling

Review 18:The room was quite nice, the breakfast and the internet inside the room and building without problems.

Review 19:Great location, good breakfast, the room was very clean and comfortable and nice staff. The guy from the night shift (I think his name was Adolph), was very nice and helpful!

Review 20:Excellent hostel and staffs very friendly and helpful. Adolf (I can remember the name very well), the guy who works at night was really nice and helped a lot.

Review 21:There is no kitchen and no teakettle in the bedroom. The bedroom is too small to fit in so many people. The bed is not comfortable too. The lower bed is too low to sleep...be careful with your head. Also, the luggage room is in the groud floor, although you can ask for the key in the reciption people always forget to give the key back. it doesn't seem to be that safe to deposite....

Review 22:Literally nothing

Review 23:Kitchen is not available for travellers who wish to cook their own meal. Hostel ambience is gloomy due to poor lighting. ( totally different from the picture on net)

Review 24:The rooms and private toilets are clean and are in goods condition. Private locker are convinient. Friendly staff. Good breakfast.

Review 25:Cleaning work interferes with sleep people After an hour 11 am It removes people from the room at all costs was Internet Free very slow and speed Internet Paid 3 Euro all 6 Hours It's really not nice beds room not good A very short distance between the bottom and the top

Review 26:|great location close to public transport Reception staff People are very nice

Review 27:Facility. I wish there was a kitchen and some inside recreation rather than the football table which we had to pay for

Review 28:Loved the location. Hostels is located in a walking distance to most of the things I neede to visit in Brussels. And the price was very reasonable for a student.

Review 29:I had the lower bunk bed, and it was really low for a short person like me. (normally i'm able to sit on the bunk bed but i had to hunch so much for this one)

Review 30:Fast check-in, clean and great breakfast. The restaurant staffs was really nice, cheerful and helpful too. Great location, value for money-definitely felt like i got more than i paid for. merci!

Review 31:The old black man at late night is really unfriendly to me. I don't know why he got this kind of attitude to the guests living here. Besides the bed is not really clean and they only offer you one blanket rathan than quilt.

Review 32:The rooms are so small and the beds are so low- If u get the bottom bunk u wont be able to sit up U feel like pastries in an oven- thats how short the bottom bunk is

Review 33:Individual shower and toilet was comfortable to use

Review 34:- Poor service at the bar , seemed like we were a nuisance - Hard to be locked out 11am - 3pm or cleaning , they won't even let you duck in and collect a forgotten item - You either pay for towels or take your own . - ££ for washing and drying .

Review 35:- Location to markets etc - Comfortable beds and pillows - Simple but effective breakfast , the staff here were really friendly and helpful -- get down early to enjoy pastries as they go quickly . - Hot showers in the ensuite

Review 36:It looked like the entrance is situated in a back alley, its quiet and empty.

Review 37:The breakfast here is good. On top of the usual carbs, there was salad and tuna and pastries. The room is not bad, the wooden bunk beds can make the room look not as new and modern/clean as other hostels but its actually quite comfortable and clean. The shower room is very clean. There are small lockers below the beds, you just have to use your own padlock.

Review 38:The breakfast is really bad, have had better even in a youth hostel.

Review 39:Nice staff. The little issue we had with the price arrangement through booking.com was easily solved. Had an individual room and bathroom. Very clean and recently updated. Special usb power socket by the bed, very handy.

Review 40:Room looks like a prison cell. But that's not the worst part of this place. Every day you have to leave your room 11AM to 3PM 'cause they clean it. You can't refuse even for money. You can't hang a 'don't disturb' sign. Just 11AM to 3PM your key isn't working. That simple. If you smoke like me you gonna go down in the morning wearing a t-shirt... and won't be able to come back. Only with the reception guy who's gonna look at you like that's you are an idiot and then wait for a tip. And you know what? The room does not change after that! They just take the garbage. Awesome.

Review 41:Really nice reception girl.

Review 42:I really liked the hostel, just think that the reception girl could've be more smiley and they could put soap in the bathrooms. I wish that had a better route to arrive there from the airport, but isn't their fault and the location is in a short walk from the grand place. I couldn't try the breakfast so I can't say if it's good or not.

Review 43:I stayed in a 4 bed ensuite room, the room was really good, clean, with enough space to put the luggage and comfy beds. What I liked the most was that all beds had their own space with light and usb sockets to charge your things, really helpful! The hostel has a nice design and a big common area that unfortunately I couldn't enjoy because I was there just for one night.

Review 44:I booked room feminine, and I had to sleep with a male, then I left things in the room because I slept two nights and upon returning I found more, I reported in reception though without concluding anything, there is a lot of disorganization in that place

Review 45:The man who checked me in was really nice, otherwise no one really payed any attention to me. Hostel also mentioned that there were lockers but there were no locks on the drawers so that didn't feel to secure.

Review 46:Breakfast was nice, location was not too far away from main attractions (walking distance), it was very clean and modern.

Review 47:- At the breakfast at 9:30 there were no vegetables and fruits ( it run out ... ) - normal bedclothes will be better than sheet and blanket used by all people...

Review 48:Really helpful staff. - access to internet -cleanliness

Review 49:The blanket is awful. Very old. Nothing comfortable but that was Okay since I only stayed for one night

Review 50:I loved the rooms, very different and nice for the offered price. The details of windows are very Nice and on my room al beds were close to each other but at the same time separated so we can have a lot of privacy. Close to centre 10/15 minutes walking

Review 51:The room was bit small and the mattress too thin,but in general ok. Something I have missed is to have a minimum food service as there was no restaurant at all.

Review 52:The hostel is in a good location and it was quite. The staff is polite but not very helpful as they seems not to have many information about the city ,tips of where to go or bars for young people.

Review 53:- Upper bed was a little squeaky - Very small locker which CANNOT fit your bag, but only your valuables - Breakfast was ok in my opinion ... there was not much variety, but it's alright because I was only here for a night

Review 54:- Location was good and they had friendly staff - Main square was about 10min walk away, but you won't even think about the time because there's so much to see along the way - Room was big with an attached toilet and bathroom

Review 55:No locker space in room to lock away bags. Just a tiny drawer. No kitchen, or fridge, just microwave. Baggage storage is just a small room, where you just leave your stuff on the floor, no lockers, to personally store things. Check out too early at 11, 12 would be better.

Review 56:Close to big shopping center Citi2 and metro. Nice shower room, some were a bit mouldy though.

Review 57:Loved this hostel! The things I loved most were the separated bathrooms in the room, one for showers and one for the toilet, the usb plug and the small lamp above every bed, the nice staff and the good location (very close to the metro station and to the historic center). There were also things I liked less, like a broken window or a broken drawer, but these didn't affect my stay in any way and there was a notice that they will get fixed soon. Over all, I think this is the best hostel in Brusselles and I will definitely choose it again.

Review 58:the staff at the reception didn;t warned that I should ask them for towel and soap, besides I have to show my discount from booking.com to pay the price on which i booked a room

Review 59:comfortable and clean room, tasty breakfast, good location

Review 60:I would have preferred the luggage room to be "safer". I do agree they have a key and you can only take it if you have luggage bas anyone can pretend he has a bag inside and just go look around guests' bags.

Review 61:The place is close to everything just by walking distance. The beds are comfortable and the showers are super clean. I loved the breakfast!

Review 62:The place smells weird. Desperately needs renovation. They charge you to use towels, even in superior twin rooms. No soap or shampoo is provided (you need to buy those separately at the reception - which I did not know). This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at.

Review 63:Location was okay but nothing else

Review 64:딱히 없음 (nothing special, nada especial)

Review 65:24시간 리셉션 (24 hours reception desk, 24 horas abierto) 조식 든든! (great breakfast, desayno satisfactorio) 친절한 직원 (kind staff, empleado amable) 가격대비 좋음 (satisfaction according to the price, la satisfaccion de acuerdo con el precio de este hostal)

Review 66:The ony thing I can comment on is that it would be good if there was soap in the bathroom:)

Review 67:The staff is really friendly and very helpful. Good breakfast. Rooms are quite spacious (especially, in comparison with other hostels)

Review 68:It was perfectly located so you are a little way from the touristy buzz but close enough to join it whenever you want. The place is great to meet new people and it's clean. Plus you get free breakfast! Definitely recommended this place.

Review 69:The beds couldn't be put together in the private and the room was quite dusty. Also, we were told on the reservation that we would have a mini-fridge in the room and it wasn't the case.

Review 70:The receptionist were both really nice and helpfull, and we had great chats with other backpackers!

Review 71:There's only one toilet in the room and it's seperate from the bathroom.

Review 72:I had an overall very nice and comfortable experience. The rooms are big and clean! And the staff are really nice and helpful.

Review 73:The staff wasn't very helpful about public transportation. In general the room was clean, very fresh linnen, but still there was dust and some hair in the corners of the room, which I didn't like, especially taking into account that the room was very tiny. There is no sound isolation, so I could hear everything in the corridor, which interrupted sleep from time to time.

Review 74:The location is super convenient, right next to the very shopping street of city center, but.. all shops are closed around 6 PM! :( I got tiny but newly renovated and refurbished room. Fine buffet breakfast. Wi-fi worked properly. And there is very hot water without interruptions in the shower, which is rarity for hostels. Perfect price and quality ratio.

Review 75:- room smelt, and window was broken, so you couldn't open it more than 2 inches to get rid of the stench. - toilet didn't flush - shower overflowed, and so the whole bathroom would have a wet floor and so getting dressed without wetting your clothes was fun.. - wifi was the worst at any hostel I've stayed at - Only two powerpoints that the whole room could use, and then two lucky bottom bunks had one of their own. I disliked it so much here, I left and went elsewhere. Super disappointed.

Review 76:- Location was good for me - bed was comfortable

Review 77:The usb port on the wall did not work during my stay and the drawer was too small to fit a normal sized backpack.

Review 78:Great location and the room was very clean.

Review 79:The 11h–15h (11am–3pm) lockout is really annoying. There were no individual power sockets at the bed, just usb ports. Really bad if you didn't have a usb cable do charge your devices.

Review 80:Great location, went easily from Brussels Nord by walking. The room has a lot of space and the bed is comfortable. There were hangers beside one of the beds, I loved it. The showers were pretty good too.

Review 81:The rooms are updated, however, the lobby area is a bit dingy. Nothing too serious though, just appearance. The staff could also pay more attention to detail when assigning rooms- a mix-up with gendered rooms (a male placed in a female only room).

Review 82:Perfect location! Right by all of the main shopping and attractions- no metro required! The breakfast was also very hardy and delicious!

Review 83:Really friendly and helpful staff, included breakfast was really good, the fast internet is actually fast, nice enough room. Generally I really enjoyed my stay at Sleep Well.

Review 84:Not so comfortable beds, like small boxes.

Review 85:Location (10 minutes walk from the Nord train station). Very friendly staff. Shower and WC is per room, so no need to run around in a towel through the corridor ;) Good breakfast. Cleanliness. Atmosphere.

Review 86:Even though the staff was in general terms ok in comparison with the rest hostels of European cities, i suggest them to provide information, having in mind that we do not know nothing about their city, we are foreigners guys, do not talk us like we are from your neighborhood and get annoyed if we do not understand. But i repeat, the staff does its job properly.

Review 87:We had a twin private which was simple and ok. Metro station is 300 meters which is very convenient if you want to catch the bus for Rynair's airport. 10 minutes walking to the center which was also nice. Definitely a hostel atmosphere, you can meet easily new people, we would easily choose it again for a short stay.

Review 88:The bed and sheet were not that comfortable and the place is really far away from central station and metro/tram.

Review 89:Washroom&wc were in the room and nice breakfast

Review 90:Stayed for 2 nights there. Good location, next to the shopping mall. Friendly and helpful stuff. Beds and floor wasn't creaking which I found a problem in other hostels, so I had a good sleep even if my roommates were moving at night. Tasty coffee.

Review 91:It seems to be an old hotel converted to a hostel so you have corridos and rooms just like a hotel. In my case a 3 bed room, separate toilet and shower. It does its job. Also the free breakfast was limited but nice.

Review 92:Though toilet and wash room were adjacent to the room, however, were separate and there was no hand washing sink in the toilet.

Review 93:Reception was open even at midnight.

Review 94:very small room for four people. There is no soap in the bath for washing hands, no water in the toilet, there was no luggage locker in the reception( I forgot to bring with me and could not buy one from hostel)

Review 95:Close to public transportation

Review 96:sometimes the silence on the floors was too heavy, I guess some radio playing in the background would be a good idea :)

Review 97:Everything, from cozy rooms to great breakfast. The price is fair too (stayed in 6-bed room)

Review 98:- the coffee you can get to your (otherwise convincing) breakfast is neither enjoyable nor resembles its taste really to what I understand as coffee - It's a Hostel, so you shouldn't expect full silence at night -- sadly, the doors in the building add to that, as they fall somewhat loud

Review 99:+ good breakfast inclusive + perfectly located right in the heart of Brussels + the rooms (Sleep Well Star) are modern, tidy and well equipped + reception 24/7 with friendly staff , no closing hours + Check-in and /-out very uncomplicated

Review 100:The lack of a kitchen to cook and prepare food is a great disadvantage for me. Plus, they close the rooms and don't let you in for few hours in midday which is annoying, I wanty freedom to go to my stuff and to my bed and stay until whenever I want without being told to leave and be always escorted during that time. The breakfast finishes quite early. Lockers too small in the dorm.

Review 101:The breakfast was really nice. The WiFi was generally good. Location was good and walkable to to most of the attractions. Spacious common area which is cool. Free walking tour was excellent and a way to meet people.

Review 102:The employees have not willing to help and the restrooms in the common area are too durty

Review 103:The breakfast is the best free breakfast ever and comfortable rooms

Review 104:Some of the staff were not very nice and when we tried asking for some directions to go to Ghent they didn't help us out and told us to check online because they were busy.

Review 105:Comfortable bed and clean bathroom

Review 106:I don't like the fact that you cant access the room from 11 to 330pm. Surely it does not take 4 and half hours to clean a room. when I got there I had been up all night from a coach ride and would have appreciated some sleep. otherwise it was great!

Review 107:friendly staff, amazing breakfast, nice and clean

Review 108:Lacking towels, soap. Breakfast : lacking fruits.

Review 109:Excellent location : 10min from the city center, right next to the mall -shops and Carrefour market-, 25 min from the train station Gare Midi Sud. (Walking). Very clean. Nice arrangements of the female dormitories.

Review 110:No towels. Blanket and sheet instead of the quilt what was a bit uncomfortable. A bit poor breakfast.

Review 111:Very close to Grand Place. 24/7 reception. Maps of the city available for free. Very clean rooms.

Review 112:When someone walked in the hallway or walked out from her/his room, then our room door was moving and making noise. When I was sleeping than i frightened up and also the walls of the rooms are very thin.

Review 113:The location was very good.

Review 114:it was all good.

Review 115:centrally located quiet clean i could not believe the breakfast . superb. cafeteria style with attendants offering excellent efficient service. this is an obvious choice for future stays!

Review 116:Can be some noise from the street. I was unlucky once they were delivering scaffolding at 3am. Room looking on the back would be quieter.

Review 117:Good bed, excellent breakfast and close proximity to centre. There are older as well as younger hostel guests.Very polite atmosphere.

Review 118:A guestwas checked in to my room at 2 am!! Too much noise from everywhere...no towels on bathroom ...no soup either. Worst hostel ever!! And the area is dangerous...people sleeping in streets etx etc

Review 119:Nothing... a completly dissaster!!

Review 120:No towel provided. Loud squeaking bed making the person below annoyed. INDEED I did not like that part.

Review 121:Location. Breakfast. Staff are friendly. That I like.

Review 122:Nothing bad. When I first got to the hostel it seemed like it was in a bit of a shady area but it turned out to be ok.

Review 123:Breakfast was great, staff were friendly, room was comfortable.

Review 124:Small room, no personal space (though wc and bath are included in the room), no heating or extra blanket in the room; the doors are thin (you can hear everthing in the hall); expensive, since you can stay in a hotel for the same price!

Review 125:Its location is good; you can walk to city center but metro system is also good.

Review 126:Lack of choice for breakfast Not many outlet to charge cellphone

Review 127:Very clean Location 15 min walk from city center Quiet Free breakfast International

Review 128:1- Small room. 2- WC not well concieved... 3- Bed linen provided, but not towels

Review 129:1- Location: city centre, within 10 min walking distance from the Grande-Place. 2- Free Wifi with strong signal. Besides, free access to PCs in the hall, and ping-pong table. 3- Simple breakfast but varied and good quality food. 4- Place to leave luggage before check-in or after check-out 5- Clean showers

Review 130:Danish people next to my room decided to play awful music at 3:50 am. It was on full volume and none of the staff came to stop the party.

Review 131:Security. Wonderful lady printed my plane tickets. I am so grateful, because it was worrying me.the "free" walking tour was fantastic.

Review 132:We stayed on the 5th floor in a private room. The building appears to have been and in the process of refurbishment, our room was clean, modern and new. We had a private ensuite which was great and a TV, this was not expected. The breakfast was tasty and price of room inc breakfast was really reasonable. We would stay again.

Review 133:No towels in bathroom but we could rent one for 1 euro... It's so cheap that maybe it could be included in the price.

Review 134:Great staff, breakfast with quite a lot of choice, fruits, cereals, coffee, bread, pain d'épices, riz au lait (very good).

Review 135:There was no stairs for the bunkbed, no separate power socket for beds, no soap in the bathroom, the water was leaking from the shower tap.

Review 136:The location is great, the staff is helpful the magnetic access system is more convenient than traditional keys, breakfast is consistent, price quality ratio is good.

Review 137:Noisy rooms, dustry sheets and rooms. Staff not very interested or talkative. No wifi in the rooms, only downstairs.

Review 138:I liked the location, right in the city centre

Review 139:Cramped bunk beds

Review 140:Very nice staff, good sumptuous breakfast. Located to Brussels Nord and all the touristy sites and great places aren't too far away.
