Pros:

Nejlepší na hotelu je jeho poloha, opravdu kousek od centra a památek. Pokoj je malý, koupelna taktéž, ale na přespání naprosto dostatečné. Personál je příjemný, snídaně dobré. Placené parkování je možné v podzemní garáži hotelu (dle obsazenosti). V blízkosti hotelu je Carrefour.

Ξεκούραστη και ήρεμη.
Pros:

Ήταν πολύ καλό άνετο και ήσυχο ξενοδοχείο στο κέντρο της Γάνδης. Οι συγκοινωνίες δίπλα και τα αξιοθέατα πολύ κοντά με τα πόδια. Πολύ καθαρό και το προσωπικό πολύ φιλικό και εξυπηρετικό.

Cons:

Δεν είχε μόνο ψυγείο στα δωμάτια .

Prima gelegen hotel voor bezoek aan de stad. Alles is te voet te bereiken.
Pros:

De locatie is perfect voor bezoek aan de stad. Het veel te dure ontbijt van het hotel kun je eenvoudig vervangen door veel voordeliger vlakbij elders te ontbijten.
Kamer en sanitair was schoon.
Er is een bemande receptie.
De parkeergarage is een voordeel in het verder auto-onvriendelijke Gent.

Cons:

De kamer was klein tov de prijs.
De parkeergarage is krap en parkeren kan wat stuurmanskunsten vergen.
Je moet om naar het hotel te rijden diverse verbodsborden negeren, anders kom je er niet.
Jammer dat een ontbijt zo duur moet zijn. (€ 19 p.p.)
