Clean, spacious, quiet, comfortable, beautifuly decorated rooms with great bed linens and bath products. The host, Kurt, is so gracious and helpful with tips on things to see and places to eat. The breakfast was absolutely delicious! We could not eat breakfast the second day because of our flight time and Kurt made us breakfast to go and left it in the fridge for us. Everything is so well designed and thoughtfully arranged. Truly a 5 star place to stay!

This one of the best B and Bs I have ever stayed in. Delightful in every respect. The room was large and comfortable, and stylishly fitted out with up to the minute mod-cons. The hosts Kurt and Michael were incredibly welcoming and friendly, they gave me a great restaurant recommendation, and put on a wonderful breakfast. Extremely convenient for the railway station. Mechelen is a real gem of a town. Thank you again for a lovely stay. David

A hidden gem in Mechelen
Ssshh - this is the best kept secret in Mechelen. Book it for the fantastic spacious rooms, the comfy bed, the shower and toiletries. Alternatively book it for its sustainability, low energy use, home made granola, local cheese etc. Finally book it as the outstanding hosts make you feel truly welcome.

Pretty much the perfect place to stay in Mechelen. Awesome location. Fabulous owners. Beautiful room. Great breakfast. Literally nothing to complain about, and please understand how difficult this is for a Brit, as complaining is our national hobby.

Warme ontvangst bij inchecken. De gastheer is een persoon die dit echt met hart en ziel doet. Je wordt als gasten echt in de watten gelegd en niets is teveel gevraagd. De kamer wordt bij een langer verblijf elke dag gepoetst. Het ontbijt is verzorgd en echt lekker. Een aanrader voor iedereen!
