This has to be the worst hostel i have ever stayed in. the rooms are dirty and there NO TOILETS in the rooms and NO HOT WATER. I was meant to stay for 10 days and left after 3. they wouldn't give me a refund for the nights I wasn't there. and they never sent anyone up to fixed the hot water. p.s the shower was so weak and cold.

Room was clean but the showers took a long time to get hot water. The poeple that worked there were friendly and helpful.

Near to city center but need to take a bus (No.6 or 16) from the train station. Breakfast not included. Clean beds but the room on the ground floor is leaking (luckily not on any of the beds), there's a sink in the room. We used the showers (good hot showers) and toilets on the first floor. However, there's a clean toilet on the ground floor as well. You just need to walk further (after the WC for the bar). No lockers.

Fairly clean and spacious,staff were helpful. Breakfast was poor and don't book downstairs especially in summer, people are passing by non stop. Also the toilets are shared with the bar. We had to be moved because of a leak and it was much better for our girls. The hotel next door looks like it will be my first choice if i go again!

Bauhaus is supposed to be a party hostel, but the rooms are not noisy at all. The bar is small but is also cheap (it works as reception, breakfast room and bar). Not a really party environment, I guess because there is not a big crowd in winter. I imagine it gets a lot of movement in summers.

We got a double room at the hostel, it was a large room with two beds put together as a king size bed, which was very comfortable. Very clean. There is also a sink in the room and hangers for the coats. (No table or chair). There are showers on the floor (we were on first floor) only one shower was working, but it was clean and has two curtains (like a mini dressing room) so you can have some privacy and your stuff doesn't get soaked. Showers are push timer type, but water is warm enough (not hot) for you to have a good bath, just push it again before water stop running. There are also showers downstairs, toilets are in that "bathing room" as well, this is the only thing I didn't like because it was always hot and vapor. I think these are the showers that get so bad reviews because they look nasty, but I never used them. However, toilets are not very clean either.

After all I liked Bauhaus because it is very cheap, it is easily reached by bus from train station and you are also close to all Brugges must sees. There is also a supermarket on the same street.

Breakfast is 2.50 euro, is served at the bar and consists of coffee or tea, boiled eggs and bread with butter and marmalade.

They have a safe as well, you leave 5 euro deposit or so.

The budget hotel is next door, but I didn't explore it.
