Die Lage ist perfekt für einen Städtetrip

Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig, Parkhaus ist sehr eng und teuer, unser Zimmer hatte einen unangenehmen Geruch, das Badezimmer wirkte wie ein in die Jahre gekommenes Krankenhaus

Prima voor een kort verblijf
Pros:

Prima locatie vlakbij praktisch alles in Gent. Voldoende voorzieningen voor een of enkele nachten. Locatie is goed schoon.

Cons:

De bedden zijn niet helemaal top. De eenspersoonsbedden zijn niet echt gemaakt op de beweeglijke slaper.
