good value and location is marvellous. the place is near ghent downtown. breakfast is available for 20 eur per person. our standard double room had a heating system, a work desk and ironing facilities. moreover, free wifi was handy. we enjoyed our stay here.

TBH, the street was noisy.

View that we had was great. The reception staff does a fabulous job. The location is convenient, a 5-minute walk from a bus station...

Morning meal food was good. Tourist destinations like gravensteen were in front of the hotel.
