not the best option
Posted 14 Jan 2023 on HotelsOur arrival at the hostel was delayed but we called and were happy that they waited for us to check in.
That done, we went to the room and one of the rooms had a horrible smell of sewage. We went back to the reception to complain and the guy said it was because the room was closed for a long and make the water run the smell disappear, which did not happen. We came back to him and he said that the hostel was full and that he couldn't do anything (??). We insisted already that this problem would need to be solved. At this point, the conversation was getting hot. So, he went to the room to see (smell) what we were complaining about. He was very unfriendly, completely different from that guy who was in the reception making jokes and laughing when we checked in. At the end he offered us another room. In the morning, there was no water available in the bathrooms, showers, or to make coffee in the restaurant. There was a problem with a leak, which at the end of the day we saw that it had been resolved. The hostel is average. Rooms are OK. Good reception and restaurant. But the first impression was bad.

Friendly, quiet and clean
Posted 20 Oct 2022 on HotelsI was a solo traveller and enjoyed my stay here. The staff were very friendly, informative and co-operative. I was enabled to have as much privacy as required by me, but there were also areas for social engagement with other guests, had I so wanted. The building was exceptionally quiet post 9pm, which suited. Surprising as the hostel was (nearly?) full on the first night. The room I stayed in was very clean, including the towel offered and bed linen. The room was fresh and airy. The breakfast was wholesome Continental and something to look forward to starting the day. The location is over a mile away from the town's shopping area, again which suited, as I prefer to gradually engage with more populated areas. The main part of this walk is beside the river and is pleasant. There is an infrequent (hourly?) bus service from the train station stopping nearby, which I didn't use. I particularly enjoyed resting in the common balcony area in the evenings. This is a semi-open area located just above the front door and overlooks the river. It was also kept clean. I felt very safe throughout, which is very important as a solo traveller. I would certainly stay in this hostel again, should I go again to Namur.

Charming Surprise for hostel
Posted 10 Sep 2019 on HotelsSurprisingly pleasant, secure for a last minute hostel we ended up w. Even had secure garage type luggage storage. Trustworthy. Beautiful river stroll, hostel just located across from river.
Usual for hostels: given clean sheets to make beds, rented towels, self help to throw in basket afterwards. Quadruple had 2 bunk beds, spacious for family. Shower ok. Wish had private toilet too.
Have to remember to bring own soap next time.
Sorry to miss brekfst provided. Early departure.

Only if no other hotels available
Posted 19 Aug 2018 on HotelsI cannot understand why you can only check in from 4 PM if the check out is at 10 AM... this is not fair... With the money you save versus choosing a hotel in the city center you actually end up paying on the transportation, so you could save yourself the trouble and book a hotel in the city center.

Fint vandrerhjem
Posted 10 Jul 2022 on HotelsRigtig godt vandrerhjem. Fin service ,flinke folk. Udmærket morgenbuffet til prisen.
Dejligt med gratis parkering lige ude foran. Skøn beliggenhed.
Det er jo ikke et fint hotel med mange stjerner, men man får, hvad man betaler for.
Dog kom vi alle til at svede meget på gummimadrasserne og -hovedpuderne.
Vi var bare på gennemrejse, men vi kunne godt finde på at komme igen for et par dage i den tilsyneladende dejlige by, Namur. Og så ville vi sandsynligvis vælge Auberge de Jeunesse igen.
