Very good

The hotel is located about ten minutes away from Gent Dampoort train station. The facility is modern and squeaky clean. Although the hotel is close to a business park and a busy roundabout, you barely hear any noise from your room. Moreover, the presence of rental bikes helped me given that public transit in Gent is disappointing. For ten Euros a day (plus a fifty Euros safety deposit), I managed to visit all of Gent's major attractions with a rental bike from the hotel thanks to Gent's bike infrastructures.

Very conveniently close to the center of Gent and especially the restaurant that’s available.
The hotel has a quirky reception that is lovely and modern . Although the bedrooms are small , the beds are comfortable for a good sleep at night , after spending busy days sightseeing !
Everything was good but we did not get breakfast included and paid for it separately each day. For us, there was not enough variety to justify paying 15 euros per person.
A really lovely modern and clean hotel with superbly friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was excellent and the location of the hotel was also very good with it being only a 10 min walk away from the main town centre. Would recommend and would use a again
Clean, modern and welcoming. The reception staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel had everything there to make it a great stay, whether for a business event, a couples break or a family weekend. Brilliant!
Great location for Ghent Damport station and a 20 minute walk to the old town. Value for money
A comfortable hotel close to the city centre in Ghent. The hotel was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the staff were friendly. For the price, I would stay here again.
