"As a hostel, it is already very good, the location is very good, the price is much cheaper than the hotel, there is a public kitchen on the first floor (all kinds of tableware are complete), you can cook by yourself. The young lady at the front desk is also very nice. But some facilities may be a little problem over time. For example, the washbasin is a bit clogged, and one day within a week, the hot water system for a bath breaks down, and only cold water can flow out. But as a youth hostel, it doesn't hurt."
Checked into Sleep & Go Brussels South. The room is spacious, and the small kitchen (fridge, hob, sink) is a genuine bonus. Perfect for a longer stay.
Location works brilliantly when you're driving. Easy access off the ring road, free parking, and central Brussels is still close. For a road trip base, this is hard to beat.
Unfortunately, the previous tenant smoked in the room despite clear non-smoking signs. The smell is faint but persistent—seeped into curtains or upholstery. Opening the window helps only so much. For non-smokers, this gets old fast.
I genuinely appreciate the space and kitchen, and the car-friendly location is a win. But management needs to deep-clean rooms that violators have used. Five days here means that stale smoke becomes part of your routine, and not in a good way.
