Disliked: Amenities
The room was so tiny, the staff didn't even make the bed properly. The bed was shoved up in a corner with no nightstands and one had to climb over the foot of the bed to get out. No hand towels. No water glasses. Stools instead of chairs. Best thing--only one night.

Budget price great hotel

Great budget hotel just outside main city centre perfect ideal fir seeing the sights and a stone throw from train station. Rooms are small but are well maintained comfortable and clean great for price point. Checkin was simple easy and hassle free only feedback that i could give was you should be able to prebook parking with a code the street outside is full and costs so need to either have pre booking or place to temp park while you get access to carpark. Other than that small issue the hotel was ideal for the money and staff were spot on .

It was sufficient for our needs, but it wasn't located near anything else. It is "budget friendly" because everything is carte blanch. The breakfast is overpriced, but we were able to get coffee and a croissant for $3.50 each. Our room was too small to leave our luggage open, and the bed was pushed against a wall, so one had to climb over the other. The A/C seemed to turn off at night, and we woke up sweating. It was an easy walk to the train station, but there was nothing to do near the hotel. Most of the staff was very friendly, but not all.

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

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.

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.
