    Wonderful host, lovely room & the breakfast was so nice! Very comfortable & lots of little touches which was appreciated. My room was up steep flights of stairs - not a problem for me, but something to consider. There are other rooms available, so worth asking if this is a concern.

    The WiFi didn’t work well from my room.

    The room is big and very comfortable. Very well equipped, organized. The host is super friendly and makes à delicious and varied breakfast! I really enjoyed everything and recommend. 10 to 15 minutes walking to the center, many shops close to the property, bus stop in front of the property. My room has a nice balcony. Bathroom has a nice bath.

    As a bed and breakfast accommodation reception facilities are only available at certain times. I could not find a place to hang my clothes, except on the back of a chair. There was no separate bathroom. The bath is in the sleeping room. The property is located near the rail station, but a good walk from the town centre.

    A quiet and clean room. A good breakfast. The owner was available to let me in at the agreed time and supplied local information.

    Personally - nothing.

    This was a perfect location for my stay in the lovely city of Ghent! It was a short walk to the historical centre, only a short bus trip from the main train station and it was near a bus stop to go to Wachtebeke for the Strong Viking run! The room was really spacious with a lovely bathtub / shower. Coffee making facilities were in the room and also a fridge so I could keep some supplies on hand. The breakfast was great too. The owner of the B&B was also lovely!

    Linda was a gracious host and the property was neat and tidy. We had a family room with three children and she had made up the sofa beds already for sleep when we arrived knowing we would need them. The room had a lovely balcony. The breakfast made by Linda was delicious. The location is about a 30 minute walk to the tourist spots at Gravensteen and St. Michael's Bridge, it is straightforward to navigate. Also close to the train station. Everything went smoothly with check in and check out and we enjoyed stay.

    I prefer a firmer mattress but I slept fine anyway...

    Breakfast was all that we wanted and served at 08:00. Location is good, just about a 20 minute walk to the city centre. Car parking in Sint-Pietersplein is easy to find and 10 mins walk away. The room was quiet and at a steady temperature despite the warmth outside.

    we were unable to connect to the wi-fi, not too much of an issue but a tv being a family room would have been nice.

    Linda was a lovely host, very welcoming and we had a lovely breakfast that she provided. location was excellent, close to the town centre (30 min walk) and close to the park which had a playground. room was big and spacious.

    Not everything is perfect, but for the money I have absolutely no complaints. It takes about 25-30mins to get to the city center by foot, just as information

    - Nice host, she makes the breakfast - Very good value for money - Had a very good sleep both nights I was there - For party people, super close to a big party street, but I wouldn't say it's noisy
