Pros:

Excellent hôtel. Bon rapport qualité prix. Proche du tram pour aller en ville. Parking à dispo mais payant. Parfait pour séjourner en dehors de la ville et y aller en tram, ce qui évite des frais de parking élevé en ville.

Cons:

L'accès n'est pas facile la première fois. La signalétique n'est pas très bonne.

Pros:

Goede locatie, de kamer was mooi ingericht. Er was een goed bed aanwezig. Lekker geslapen.

Cons:

Bijkomende kosten voor de parking. Douchekop lekte hard. Als je alles samen neemt is het wat te prijzig. Misschien omdat het de Gentse Feesten waren.

Great refurbed hotel on motorway - good stop for routes into Holland & Germany.
Pros:

Just off motorway.
Easy parking
Refurbed room
Nice standard.

Cons:

Paying for parking €15 per night.
There's an abundance of parking space. Not sure why they need to charge hotel guests.
Plus It's not secure.
Only disappointing aspect.
