Great location for exploring Ghent and beyond

Dirk, the host was very kind greeting us on a Sunday afternoon. He was very enthusiastic about Ghent and has all sorts of books and maps of the area. The suite is very very will designed and decorated. It is near the university so there is a number of small inexpensive places to eat and a number of pubs. The old part of Ghent is about 20 minute walk or a short bus ride. We really enjoyed our stay.

High quality and would recommend

Lovely and very spacious, our apartment was decorated beautifully and had a dishwasher, washing machine and a bath 😊 The host is extremely friendly and very thorough and helpful at all times. You are close to a very good supermarket. The apartment has good heating and bicycles were available. The lift is great at the end of the day but be aware there are about seven steps if you have mobility issues.

Lovely apartment in a great location.

The apartment was lovely, within walking distance of the historic centre and St-Pieters train station, and the area felt very safe. Communication was excellent, and Dirk was on hand at check-in with a tourist map and suggestions for things to do. A basket of fruit and nuts and a small bottle of Cava was provided free of charge, which was a nice touch!

Great apartment in lovely Ghent!

The Penthouse Apartment is lovely, very well designed, spotlessly clean and with everything you need for a stay in Ghent. The lift is great, no need to lug your suitcase or groceries upstairs and there’s a lovely view from the kitchen windows. The apartment is very light, even in the winter, but was also warm and cosy with adjustable heating. There’s also air conditioning for the warmer months! Dirk is a great host, who obviously enjoys the building and his beautiful city, and offers plenty of useful information on arrival. The apartment is in a good location, quiet but close to everything.

Great location and even better host. Thanks a lot Dirk.

Property has great location near the city center and a public garage. Host, Dirk was great. He explained me everything about city locations and he even prepared map with markings of bakery, markets, shops and routes throughout the city. Also, I have received basket with fruits and a small bottle of champagne. The great thing are the bikes in apartment that I used to ride through the city. I had a great time. Thanks Dirk!

Well designed and equipped accommodation in a great location.

Very friendly welcome from Dirk, who was a mine of information. The flat was very well equipped, everything had been thought of. Particularly good for clothes storage. Liked the toilet being separate from the bathroom. Extremely useful to have 20 minutes free parking (with ticket from machine) outside the accommodation, and a lift for loading and unloading. The car park was very close by, and great value. It was very quiet when we were staying, heard one person coming and going on one occasion; no external noise. We enjoyed walking to all our destinations. Some great local bars for a drink on the way "home".

Even Ellen property in great location with exceptional host

It is a very well designed and comfortable apartment. It contains all the conveniences and was well positioned for us between the railway station and the old town. Walking distance to everything. Dirk is an exceptional host who took time to to give us advice, maps and general knowledge of the area. The fruit bowl and piccolo of sparkling wine were greatly appreciated. Dirk also checked in during our stay to make sure everything was ok. The option to use bicycles was also an added bonus. Thank you Dirk.
