Great place to stay!

We came to Gent for a conference and a visit with friends. The property was perfect for our group of 7 adults and children. Centrally located, spacious, and modern - both the adults and the kids thought it was a cool place. The owner responded quickly to any inquiry and was very gracious. Highly recommend!!

Light and airy loft for a group

The loft was perfect for the four of us. Location is a short walk to the center of Ghent. Across the canal was a hidden gem--Industrie Museum. And a lovely Italian restaurant. The loft was light and airy, the bathrooms modern. The common area has a nice seating area, a huge dining table and an adequate kitchen and a small powder room. Common area is up one flight of stairs, 3 bedrooms and baths a second and the fourth bedroom another flight (in case stairs are a problem). The host was immediately responsive to all of our messages.

Great apartment for our extended family.

Our extended family of 7 including our infant grandson had a great stay. The apartment was well within easy walking distance of Gent’s historic center. We would definitely stay there again.

Unique place, lots of steps

Our whole family loved the loft. It was unique. The kitchen was more than fully equipped, although we would have liked instructions on how to use the oven/microwave. In the end, we were very grateful for the toaster. It took a day or so to get used to the steep staircases. This place probably would not be suitable for toddlers or less-mobile adults, but our 8-12-year-old grandkids loved the top floor and had no problem scrambling up the ladder-style steps to the top-floor loft. We had no problem walking to sites all over Ghent. The neighbors on the whole block were friendly and showed us how to use the parking meters on the street. The garage accommodates one medium SUV-style car. We were visited a few times by a small mouse on the kitchen level, but the kids found it entertaining. We recommend this spacious, interesting loft.

Charming home close to town

Spacious home with lots of character. Unique design. It was about an easy 7 minute walk to the central area of Gent and there were a couple of nice neighborhood restaurants and a small market even closer. We were able to drop our bags off earlier which was nice. Large windows and skylights let in lots of light, The more modern exterior of the building did not reflect the charm of the interior. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely loft!

We thought the apartment was lovely..cool, comfortable and spacious. It’s in a great location, a quiet area but near good places to eat and an easy walk to the centre. Host was easy to contact and prompt to reply. Only problem was the sofa cushions were a bit dusty, some of us a bit allergic… other than that, fabulous!

Holiday Fun

Lovely property with parking was perfect. Just 3 in our group so plenty of space to spread out and recharge after sightseeing and enjoying the holiday festivities. Safe quiet neighborhood, felt private yet relatively close to all the activities and attractions. The only negative for us were the scratchy towels and toiletries offered. Nice place to stay for people who enjoy walking and exploring, I would definitely recommend.

Enjoyable experience in a unique property steps from the centre of Ghent.

We enjoyed the location, the size, and the uniqueness of this property and would stay again in a heartbeat. The only minor complaint thay we had was that although the property was tidy and well equipped, it was not quite clean when we arrived. We communicated this upon our dwparture and I'm sure it will be rectified for future guests as the host was very redponse and communicative throughout the rental process. We did not let the minor issues affect our stay at the great property so close to the centre of Ghent. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Beautiful and spacious

It's really a great, massive, open space. Very cozy, lots of room. Great showers and such. Very nice to hang out by the fireplace with your friends. There was an unfortunate problem our first night - during heavy rain, some kind of problem flooded the house with a really horrible sewage smell. The property owner responded and apologized immediately, but we had to live with the smell until the next morning when someone arrived to fix the problem, which originated from the garage. Hopefully the remedy means future guests won't have the same experience. Other than that, perfect, and great communication from the host.

We needed somewhere for 3 couples to meet and share a short holiday in Ghent - The Grain Loft turned out to be perfect. Spacious, well appointed and furnished, clean and situated within easy walking distance of the centre, it was ideal. It is also close to local restaurants and shops including a supermarket.
