    I was in shock when I arrived in the room, I almost left to be honest. It wasn’t mentioned anywhere (at least nowhere clearly) that the bathroom is shared. I’m not sure if it’s the same for all the rooms but for the single ones on the ground floor it is. The shower curtain looked horrible, the bottom part had a disgusting brown colour…It definitely needs to be changed. In the room a lot of dust everywhere and you have that feeling of stickiness. The chair looked like it came from the war, ripped apart everywhere. But the absolute worst part was the terrible smell in the room. It smelled like a strong cleaning product I suppose, similar to some public toilets. I had to keep the window for almost one hour in order to be able to breathe.

    The self check in service is fine, it worked very well.

    The bathroom light switches off every 30sec or so when it detects no movement, e.g. when you are behind the shower curtain

    Fully kitted out kitchen

    The hotel is ols and needs renovation. The room was clean but needs a makeover, as does the bathroom. I would take another hotel next time and pay a fey euros more.

    Comfortable but very expensive for moderate accommodation. Low value for money.

    • Superior King Room
    • Stayed 6 nights

    We did not see any host during our entire stay, and could not ask questions (no telephone number available). Shower temperature too hot (boiling) no indication how to change it. Only coffee pads for a few days (8 coffee pads: if you count 2 people 2 coffees in the morning during 6 days, you need at least 12 coffee pads). Main building where you enter is very old, also smell of inside. The key is not numbered and can be easily copied. However, 200 EURO fine if you loose the key !! Not sure about security. Door and lock seem easy to break in, however they are not responsible if anything happens. 2 pages of rules is really exaggerated. Lots is forbidden but if something does not work, it is not their fault and you cannot claim any money back (eg if Wifi does not work).

    Studio was clean which is normal in Belgium ! Bed was comfortable. Coffee machine in the room. Good free parking next to the road. A bakery close by to buy breakfast. Small sauna in the room.

    Accommodation difficult to find. Located in Hundelgemsesteen rd which is a very long road in Ghent and has two nr 154 locations far from each other no fridge in the apartment - only in shared kitchen Unit is small and only 50% wall separates the sleeping area and bathroom This was our most expensive accommodation, but by far the worst on our trip

    The location was okay as there is only 1 bus to the accommodation which is quite limited, especially on a Sunday.

    Cleanliness was excellent!

    If you want to sleep at night don't stay here.

    The walls are paper thin, so our sleep was interrupted multiple times during our 4 night stay by other visitors coming in at around 1-3am. Talking and laughing very loud for hours. I am not a light sleeper and they managed to wake me. For this reason I wouldn't come back as I was left deprived of sleep during my entire stay. Kettle and coffee machine water reservoir need cleaning. No sockets for charging devices next to the bed.

    Bedroom and Shared bathroom was kept clean to a good standard. Cheaper compared to others. Easy to check-in. Location is good and close to a bus stop that takes you directly to the centre.

    Attitude towards customers, provisionally created bathroom which is a part of a room, without any privacy, the smell, damaged shower with not sufficient water pressure, really shallow bottom of the shower, water easily spills to the room. The toilet was not providing any source of privacy, and the smell was in the entire room.

    The apartment was spacious, clean, and the bed was comfortable. It has a good shower with toiletries. The self check in was good and well communicated. Car parking outside was free and ample. Unless you are driving the accomodation is located 15 minutes away by bus from Ghent. The bus stop is across the road to the right. The area is lovely and quiet. We enjoyed our stay here.

    The instructions to check in was very good. My room was perfect. The bathroom always was so clean. The kitchen is fully equipped with all you might need. There is a bus stop almost in front of the stay. There is a small grocery shop nearby, bakery, frities and restaurants. It is really a home stay.
