Perfekt für die Stadtbesichtigung!
Pros:

Das Hotel ist klein und ein nettes historisches Gebäude. Der Frühstücksraum ist wunderschön, und auch das Frühstück ist sehr nett.
Man ist nur ein paar Minuten zu Fuss von allen touristischen Punkten entfernt.
Das Haus hat (natürlich) keine Klimaanlage, aber wir bekamen einen Ventilator.

Cons:

Alles gut, wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen, aber nicht mehr bei 40 Grad !

Great location and interesting building
Pros:

Excellent location. Really friendly and helpful staff. Very good breakfast. The building looks plain from the outside (it's an old house) but the inside is great, with really interesting main rooms and decorations.

Cons:

The shower set up in my room was a bit basic, but it was fine.

gewoon een beleving om een paar dagen in een echt oud Gents huis door te brengen!
Pros:

Prachtige grote antiek ingerichte kamer in een 16e eeuws oud pand. hele mooie eetzaal. Auto kun je daar voor een redelijk tarief vlakbij en binnen parkeren. Goed bed, en lekker geslapen. Hele vriendelijke eigenaar, als je wat vroeg kreeg je veel uitleg over de stad. we kregen ook een boekje en plattegrond. De man was heel behulpzaam, want we moesten met een koffer een hoge steile trap op. 3 minuten lopen en je stond op de graslei in het centrum

Cons:

Badkamer gedateerd, maar wel schoon, en alles was er. Geen airco, dat is in die oude panden niet toegestaan in Belgie. De koffie die we bij het overigens goede ontbijt kregen was meer oploskoffie. wel van het goede soort, maar wij hebben liever echte koffie.

Perfect location and lovely dining room and downstairs old world historical decor. The bedroom was very basic and needs
Pros:

The downstairs is beautiful. Lovely dining room and nice breakfast.

Cons:

The room was pretty basic considering the nature of the downstairs. Some upgrades are needed for the bedroom decor and fixtures.
