Perfect hotel for a Gent weekend stay
Perfect for our boys weekend away. It's a 15 minute walk from the city centre and has it's own private underground parking (first come, first served basis) so we could just leave the car and wander the city. Can't fault the stay - great location, friendly staff, good rooms and priced well. Would definitely stay again if we return to Gent.

Good value hotel close to Gent centre.
Close to the centre of Gent with a tram stop directly outside to take you to the train station, or a 20 minute walk. Beds comfy, rooms clean and warm ,shower hot, good for the price. Cafés nearby if going out for breakfast. Other guests were noisy late one evening but this was quickly resolved by the night staff. The walls are a little thin. I have stayed here before some years ago and would stay again.

Could do better
Overall ok for a couple of nights. Concerns of carpeted floor, washable would be better. Bed topper & mattress continually moved, needs individual joined mattress to stop feeling other occupants movements. No drawer space at all & just open shelves with only 5 hangers in open rack. No bedside table on one side. Tiniest shower room ever seen with high step up to shower cubicle. Lots of mosquito bodies on ceilings etc. Not well sound insulated, can hear conversations in corridor etc.
