Everything was good but we did not get breakfast included and paid for it separately each day. For us, there was not enough variety to justify paying 15 euros per person.

A really lovely modern and clean hotel with superbly friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was excellent and the location of the hotel was also very good with it being only a 10 min walk away from the main town centre. Would recommend and would use a again

A Great Hotel
Clean, modern and welcoming. The reception staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel had everything there to make it a great stay, whether for a business event, a couples break or a family weekend. Brilliant! Great location for Ghent Damport station and a 20 minute walk to the old town. Value for money

Enjoyed our 2 night stay here. Great location, easy walk from train station with wheelie bags, and walk to town attractions. Our room was small but ideal as a place to put head down after big day walking. The staff were always friendly and always staff cleaning the main areas of hotel. The gym is small but adequate - cost euro 5 to use. The breakfasts seemed very popular and good value judging by the amount of people dining there from early in morning. All in all a really good budget hotel. The only negative is that there are roadworks happening outside so a little noisy and dirty but we were advised of that in an email prior to our arrival Would stay again if I re-visited Ghent.

Dystopian Prison Complex Vibes In an industrial area surrounded by construction, there are facial recognition cameras everywhere scanning everything. They are cashless meaning they want to charge your card for everything including city tax which is a hassle for international folks who dont want extra service fees to pay €3,5 for city tax, and they charge for everything from luggage storage (€2/hour) to hot water, paper cups, there are no free beverages or snacks or anything, no water no coffee no tea. the gym costs and extra €5 etc. all doors and elevators require card scanning, and there are so many doors, some doors are broken bathrooms out of order etc. Staff is somewhat rude. Window view is of industrial construction and window cleaners looking inti your room etc. It is very far from eveything one must either order a taxi or hike through construction to reach busses

Social atmosphere
We had a great time playing games borrowed from the lobby games library. The hitel creates a very social atmosphere that we really liked. We could have used a couple more amenities in the room such as a glass to have a drink of water to take medications and there was not a chair to sit on or a bench to place our suitcase.

For a budget hotel, this place was very clean, modern and had good service. City center is a 15 walk away so this is a really good deal and a good place to stay if you want to save some dollars.
