Goed voor op doorreis
Pros:

Het ligt vlak aan de snelweg. Wij waren op doorreis en dan is dat wel belangrijk. Verder vroeg kunnen ontbijten, zodat we snel weer door konden richting Engeland.

Cons:

Er zijn nog bouwwerkzaamheden gaande. Dat moet je er wel bij nemen.

Pros:

Leuke uitvalsbasis voor Gent. Tram op 5’ wandelen en alle vrijheid. Ondanks de verbouwingen, perfecte tegemoetkoming voor het ongemak. Succes met de heropening

Er staat nergens vermeld bij de boeking dat er een verbouwing gaande is.
