| bed wasn't very clean... the shower space is so small and the shower curtain couldn't cover the shower space and water kept splashing out. the whole floor in toliet ended up really wet and slippery... the light in room was way too dim.. otherwise the location is great...staff are quite friendly.. | ||

| I was pleased and interested to learn of the new Oostende HI hostel due to open next year - have stayed at De Ploate twice now and have found it to be fine, if a bit worn and outdated, and look forward to visiting the new hostel. | ||
