Pros:

Ubicación muy buena, muy cerca de la estación principal de tren de Gante y zona de panaderías, restaurantes....
Atención del personal en recepción, cuidado de las maletas el día de salida.
Desayuno muy completo y variado.
Buena climatización, ventanales....

Cons:

Si acaso, los pasillos de la zona de las habitaciones y el ascensor son muy estrechos, pero es verdad que luego las habitaciones son amplias. Han aprovechado bien la construcción del edificio para las habitaciones.
Había algún colchón que tendrían que echar un vistacillo porque estaba algo deformado y se hundía por el lateral.

Pros:

Het personeel was zeer vriendelijk en het ontbijt was lekker. Je kon op aanvraag iets laten maken dus dat was heel prettig. De kamer was hygienisch op orde.

Cons:

De douche was aan de mindere kant. De druk op de kraan was erg laag, de kussens waren niet top. Ook was het vrij luidruchtig vanuit de gang.

Good choice for Ghent and surrounding area
Pros:

Friendly welcome
Big room
Excellent location, close to train station (but without any noise), supermarket and eateries
Easy access to city centre via excellent tram service or a pleasant walk
Fabulous breakfast (and I do mean FABULOUS!) It was well worth the 20 euro supplement
Perfect base for exploring Ghent, Bruges and other cities via the cheap and efficient trains. (Train+ was easy to get and saved us money)

Cons:

The bathroom was quite small
Shower over the bath might not suit everyone but was fine for us
There was occasionally some noise from (apparently) building work above our floor
