Let me just say that this hostel/hotel was above and beyond the expectations I would have for any hostel on the planet.

Located a short walk away from the city center and right next to the canal and a nieghboring tram line, MEININGER Brussels City Center was optimal in terms of location and access to public transit. It was extremely clean, and very, very cute (IKEA decor everywhere!). We were in a room of six beds, which all shared a common bathroom and shower.

For about 20 euros a piece (approximately 30 USD), Jessica and I stayed at MEININGER Brussels for one night. While that may be more costly than some of the other hostels we have stayed at, this hostel was totally worth it. The price may not have included breakfast, but to be in a place where we were so comfortable was a gift, particularly during so much traveling!

I would recommend this hostel to anyone looking to go to Brussels -- for that matter, I would simply recommend the entire MEININGER hostel/hotel line, as they have hostels spread throughout the world. and our stay in another MEININGER in Frankfurt was almost as lovely as this one!

Happy travels.
