The hotel is overrated and isn’t worth the money you pay. The rooms are quite old and have no soundproofing. We had to listen to people yelling outside all night until 4 am, and then at 5 am garbage trucks were collecting trash outside. None of us got a good night’s sleep, and we were quite happy that we had only booked one night.

Hotel staff weeee great and helpful, especially assisting us with a medical emergency and being accommodating. Rooms are nice and clean. Hotel is very nice and clean. Location is fantastic for touring the main sights of old Ghent. Only issue with the hotel is it was noisier than previous hotels, poorer sound proofing between rooms and especially to outside. But overall a great hotel and good value!
