There were too few bathrooms for the number of guests in the hostel. And then it was pot luck if the water was hot or not. The included breakfast was a joke, two options, take it or leave it. Some mornings breakfast didnt eventuate at all. No lift, and the stairs were so steep, that they wouldnt comply with today's building code, and with the worn carpet, the stairs were an accident waiting to happen.
Definitely NOT value for money, I would not stay there again

Room was good and comfortable! I just didn’t like that you have to make your bed and put things together and take them off. Hello, that’s what are you paying for. Also no elevator and if you get the top floor like it happen to me is a lot of stairs.

It’s ok

I stayed in a 2 female room which is big enough for 2 people with luggages, and it has a washing basin. It’s an old building so don’t expect elevator. The lobby is quit small, I didn’t enjoy hanging out there.

Nice, clean hostel in the centre. 10 minutes walk to train / Bus station. Friendly staff. Lively atmosphere. There is no lift but that's common with many central properties as due to their special bulding status change is not permitted.

Needs maintenance

The Lybeer Hostel was in a very good location. For those wanting an ensuite double room, a hotel would be much better value. The hostel is in a lovely old building but carrying suitcases up 3 very steep flights of stairs with banisters that are broken in parts and held together with scaffold poles and extremely threadbare carpet is very dangerous. Rooms are all upstairs. A lift would be great. Unfortunately we got caught booking on a holiday weekend.

This hostel was central and walkable to the tourist spots.
No lift. Stayed on second floor 4 bed female room which was ok. Provided tea and coffee.
Didn't like the stairs. Had to make your own bed and remove bedding and bring it back downstairs on departure day.

We booked a double room with private WC although it is a hostel with lots of share rooms. It is at the top of the hostel, you have to go up and down through a very narrow stairs. No elevator. it is always crowded in the reception during checkin and checkout time. As a hostel, it is quite organised with reasonable number of bathrooms and toilets. Equipped Kitchen and free tea coffee. sometimes kitchen is a bit messy after the usage as it is shared with many travellers. Would be great if more hair dryers are available to borrow.

Not worth what you pay - get a hotel

The hostel is very basic. Room had twin bunk beds and a sink. Things were clean, but we did need to make our own beds. No chairs or tables to put any of our luggage.

For the price, it’s better to pay a bit more (max 10 euros) for a full hotel room, king bed, bathroom, tv - which we did and had a much better stay.

What brought us to Hostel Lybeer was the social room/piano, but everything is under construction. Check first before booking if this is what interests you.

The staircase is ultra sketchy and in no way accessible. No elevator available.

Overall an okay “hostel” but WAY over priced for what you get.

4/5 location.

Very much a hostile experience. Super casual with 27 rooms in a single building. Fits into the vibe of Bruges. Don't expect a hotel, a restaurant, valet or business-class experience. Instead, sleep in a bunk with clean sheets. Park in the underground lot about 5 min walk away or at the train station 10 minute walk away.

Practical and cost effective

The stay was practical - to have a place to sleep inexpensively for one night. Staff was very friendly. The condition of the room was good and clean. The common areas of the hostel were in need of some repair and general organizing. Some of the mess could have been due to COVID rules restricting the space that could be used. Overall it was fine for what I needed.

Nice stay, could use a few improvements in service

Stayed in a very nice private room. The staff was really nice but when we arrived a half hour before check-in, we had to wait until 2 to check-in which was fine with us. We went and had lunch, came back at 3:30, a hour and a half after check in and they were still cleaning the room. Only had to wait a few minutes, bug you could tell they were behind. They also cancelled the beer tasting they had scheduled. The bar and common areas were nice.

I thought the staff could have been much more helpful. She didn’t offer any real help when I asked questions and seemed entirely disinterested. We called to ask about changing the batteries in the safes because one was dead and the other stated low battery, she said she’d send the technician who never came.
The showers are GROSS and they smell. Be the first to shower if you can because otherwise there is only one per floor. Some extras on the lower level which don’t have hot water...

The room itself was nice though. I would ask them to add soap to the sinks in the rooms. Especially since one of the floor toilets has no sink and you have to wash your hands back in the room.

The location was good, not too far from the market sq etc.

Nice clean place

Nice place with a lot of space(low season, not full)
My room was only half full. You get free coffee and tea as long as you clean your own cups/dishes. Large dining area for drinks/food.

The bad: had to wait a while for the concierge to get back to his desk. Also not 24 hour availability.
Had to set my own bed, sheets, pillows and blankets.
Some beds in rooms haven’t been cleaned from previous guests

Good for the party crowd

The hostel has an incredible location (you honestly could not hope for better), it’s is by a large parking garage, restaurants, shopping, and the sites. The place is clean and friendly. The rooms and nice and each have a sink. I was overall very happy. My only disappointment was that the walls and doors are not sound proofed, so I could hear music and laughter into the night. Otherwise, the beds are comfy, the blankets are excellent, and the staff provided me a map and info of the area. I would recommend this place - just bring some earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.

I was greeted by a friendly young woman who made sure I understood everything about the hostel and who gave me a wonderful map of Brugge. The bed in the 4 woman dorm was clean and I received fresh linen. If you don’t want to rent a towel be sure to bring your own. I am a 61 year old woman and healthy and so did not mind the climb up the winding staircase to my room. After midnight the place was very quiet but I do not recommend this place if you like to go to bed early (unless you have earplugs). It was lively but not out of control. I really enjoyed my stay!
