Stay near the station if easy rail arrival matters most, compare Korte Vuldersstraat for a centre hostel, or Ezelstraat for a different central hostel street. Do not treat the source’s winter promotion or budget labels as an available deal.
Compare Sint-Widostraat for a central hostel and Sint-Michielsplein for a different historic-centre approach. Bargiekaai is a boat-accommodation alternative: choose it for that lodging format, not because an old listing calls it better than land hostels.
