The room and common area were very cosy. Toilets and showers had lockers so that you could have some privacy. The kitchen was very well equipped and everything seemed to work perfectly.

Quiet, clean accommodation with ample off street parking close to the city. It is adjacent to an indoor sports complex and has a great licensed restaurant onsite - we only stayed one night but it was a great rest from our hectic travel schedule and being able to get the lift down to dinner was too easy. Malik (I hope that’s correct) at the front desk was super helpful and friendly - he even printed out my Formula One ticket for me, and then brought it to me while I was having dinner! A great place to stay.

It was a cute and small space that had everything I needed. A bed, desk, small bathroom, and a small kitchen. There were windows out to the corridor instead of a wall, but it was super easy to just pull down the blinds.

All hostels in Leuven

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The entire experience was great. I was travelling to attend a concert and met many like-minded people who I could go with. The place is ideal for backpackers and people who wish to meet new people while travelling. Breakfast was adequate for the price and the dorms were clean. Location is ideal as it is right next to the station and easily accessible.

This is one of the nicest and cleanest hostels I have been at. I took the double room which was very cozy and full of light, it had a small basin in the room which was very useful. The common toilets and showers were exceptionally clean. Great location and staff is super nice.
