This youth hostel in Ghent is quite quaint. You can store your luggage. Since we arrived early, we put down our luggage and went out for a walk early in the morning. Ghent is a very distinctive city and it is worth spending a day to visit it.

I just needed the towel. Everything was great. Staff were friendly, people living in the same room were also friendly and nice. We enjoyed talking to each other. The facility was managed very clean and seamlessly. I would really recommend the stay. Also, the view from the room was great!

KaBa Hostel was my first place to stay in Belgium and I couldnt have picked a nicer spot to start my trip. Arrived in at 6am from the UK to the FlixBus depot near Ghent-Dampoort station and used the €9 locker to store my backpack as check in doesn't open till 3pm. Rented a bike at Ghent Dampoort station (€19) and spent a few hours trying to find somewhere open for breakfast. €22 for very fancy blueberry waffles & green tea at "Modest". I'm sure there were cheaper places but was sleep deprived with no terms of reference. The city is gorgeous but I'd recommend using Donkey Republic for bike hire in future as I the bike hire place closes at 7pm and I had to argue with them when returning at 7am the following morning I wasn't hiring it for 2 days but eventually got my money back. Hostel is in a nice quiet spot and close to the train station. 3 bed dorm was cosy but no large lockers to store my medium sized 47L backpack so had to chain it to the bed. The top floor did get VERY hot in the sun and I'd recommend a blackout blind for the south facing glass door on the corridor. Also the door locks and top floor are quite loud & echoey. I did get a decent nights sleep and the shower was decent with no queue in the morning thankfully. Large velux window with mosquito screen helped to cool the room but needed to get up at 5am due to dawn chorus and noise from trains waking me. Breakfast was worth it and got to chat to a few other residents which was nice. Staff were friendly & helpful and the fresh linen was clearly seen and you can tell cleanliness is very important to the owners. Would definitely stay again if visiting Ghent.

Very lovely hostel! Clean rooms and common area, the breakfast is a great deal as well. Staff were incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Their backyard is a beautiful spot to hang out in. The location is very close to the Flixbus station as well as to the local transport. Would absolutely come back here the next time I'm in Ghent.

Our 2 night stay in the hostel was more than pleasant. Easy to reach on foot from the station and run by very helpful staff for every request. The buffet breakfast (€5 per day per person) was very satisfying. The room was clean and simple. It has a garden with a table for meals and a common room, ideal for making new acquaintances. Absolutely recommended!!
