Pros:

Das Hotel hat uns gut gefallen. Unweit vom Hotel ist ein kleiner Park mit Teich, sehr grün und ruhig gelegen. Fußläufig ist die Innenstadt von Gent gut zu erreichen. Wir haben eine Nacht dort als Zwischenstation genutzt (ohne Frühstück)

Cons:

Wir empfanden die Unterkunft etwas teuer. Doch das ist unser subjektives Empfinden.

We enjoyed our stay. Proximity to the center of town is great and extra cost breakfast is fantastic.
Cons:

The power outlets down in the laundry room were not working therefore we couldn’t. I don’t our outfits for the wedding reception. We could take the iron to the room, but the ironing board was permanently fixed today laundry room down in the basement so that was a challenge.
Seems like many hotels in Europe don’t have air-conditioning in their rooms so it was a little hot even though we had a fan running.

Schönes, modernes Hotel, erweckt aber leider stellenweise den Eindruck eines Krankenhauses
Pros:

Das Zimmer war geräumig und schlicht und zweckmäßig eingerichtet, mit bequemen Bett. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Das Bad hat den Charme eines Krankenhauses und passt absolut nicht in ein Hotel für zahlende Gäste.
