Reviews of Sleep Well

Sleep Well has a rating of 78% from a total of 1105 reviews and ratings, below are some reviews of Sleep Well

All in all, sleep well is an excellent Hostel! The only drawbacks - 3pm check in (kind of annoying if you arrive early) and the lack of lockers in the rooms. All there is is a small cupboard you can lock. But still other then this, sleep well is one of the best hostels ive stayed in. A+

Directions to get here are poor - we got so lost. So here are ours: Come out of Rogier metro station, cross the main road opposite the glass pyramid. Walk down Rue Neveau (a big shopping street with Mc. Ds down it). Take the first left and keep walking, you should see the hostel on your right....

Showers were terrible! Our room didn't have hot water at all, but they did give us a different room the next day. However, in this new room the water in the shower was too hot and it wasn't possible to make it colder. Everything else was fine.

My wife and I had a private room that was robbed, presumably by the cleaning staff. The room was entered twice after the do not disturb sign was posted. The staff was very non chalant about the fact and made no effort to recover or compensate for the stolen goods. I would not stay here!

Thought that was pretty expensive for a hostel. They charge £extra for sheets. Cost me more than £20 to sleep in a room with other 9 people. No bar service, no restaurant service, nothing at all. Will no go back defenetly.

Negative remarks: 1) the lock-out between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. We arrived just after 2 p.m. and waited until 3 p.m. to access to the room; 2) the price of sheets is not included in the reservation price. You must pay 5 additional Euros for them. Anyway, I recommend this hostel!!!close

The hotel is quite proper. Clean. Good location and service. Though a bit noisy during our stay because of the construction work nearby. Overall we love it and will recommend to someone else.

Was finally given another.Wasted 1.5 hours of my morning dealing with this. They KNEW hot water was an ongoing problem in that room and still put me there. On my last morning I didn't want to pack a wet towel so I asked to rent one, expecting to pay a small fee. Was told I would have to buy one for 4 euros($6), which would not have helped since it too would have to be packed wet or left behind. Very stupid policy!close

This place sucked. I did not engoy my time here at all and could not wait to leave. Everything about the place was unwelcoming. I was slightly annoyed that they played loud music in the halls, there is no such thing as a quite place during the day. So loud you can hear clearly in your room. NO...

sleep well is a huge, quite centrally located hostel with friendly staff. It is quite anonymous though. The linen is not included and the breakfast (7-9 a.m.) consists of toast, cornflakes, instant coffee and some sort of instant juice...it is a good tip for a weekend away but really not if you...

Another bad direction. The best thing to do is look for a mall called City 2 and the hostel will be behind it. Another big hostel and very nice but to take a shower you have to press a button several times... this is weird! We recommend it!

You have to leave the rooms between 11 am and 3 pm...and you are locked out which means your door card won´t work within those 4 hours! People who still sleep at 11 am will be disturbed and made to leave the room by the cleaning staff. No exceptions made. They will enter your room several times... more You have to leave the rooms between 11 am and 3 pm...and you are locked out which means your door card won´t work within those 4 hours!

This was in an excellent location, easy to walk to most of the sights (and chocolate shops) in Brussels. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the room we stayed in was lovely and clean, though we did stay in a private room so I don't know what the dorms were like.
