This place is good for a weekend with friends since it is central and affordable. Breakfast comes with an extra fee and is no big thrill. In Bruges I always choose this place. More

Yes, it is probably terrible for many people. But if you just need a place to sleep, this place is great. Mostly because the beds and linen were very clean. Everything else was not the best--the staff at the "reception" (really at the bar of the pub downstairs) lost my reservation; you must elbow your way through the smokers at... More

I stayed for 3 nights and when I booked in, I was insulted by the man attending to me within 5 minutes of being there; they took 2 days to clean up the vomit in the bathroom shower, even though I asked them several times; there was no hot water in one shower; they charged me 4 euros instead of...

Stayed here with my best friend during a European backpacking trip and we loved it. We had originally planned to stay in another hostel in Bruges called 'Snuffle' due its great reviews on hostelworld.com, but after naively turning up without a reservation to find it all booked up, we were directed elsewhere to Charlie Rockets. Now, when people say things... More

Good place for backpackers looking for a cheap accomodation in Bruges. Location is perfect - right in the very center of The Old Town. Rooms don't look very clean, all of them have bunk beds (sheets and pillows are clean). Toilets and showers in the corridor, clean but need refreshment. Stairs can really be a problem, especially after a few... More

The rooms were dirty and the lightbulbs in the hallway were burnt out. I could see where the bathroom was in the middle of the night and almost fell down the stairs. The price was right, but not worth in the end! More

Well it was definitely better than other places I've stayed at. My friends and I stayed there with a topdeck tour over Christmas. The good would be..... the beds were clean, the showers were nice, and we had breakfast in the bar in the morning and it was quite good. The not so good...... as others have said lack of... More

We were very disappointed with CRs - not very clean at all - room, toilets or showers, lightbulbs missing, graffiti in bedrooms, need to go into the bar to speak to staff, dark stairs with walls covered in not sure what, very noisy down stairs until very late, etc. We cancelled our booking for the return part of our journey....
