Hôtel parfait pour profiter d’un séjour à Gand
Pros:

L’emplacement est parfait en centre ville. Petit déjeuner très varié. Chambre confortable et personnel très agréable. Nous avons pu choisir une chambre avec vue sur la place ; magnifique.

Cons:

Certaines chambres ont des douches et d’autres des baignoires ; nous avions une baignoire et nous aurions préféré une douche.
