Struttura in ottima posizione, vicinissimo a tutte le attrazioni turistiche. L'accesso è molto semplice e senza problemi grazie al codice. Se hai bisogno di qualcosa il proprietario è sempre rintracciabile tramite WhatsApp La camera era più che soddisfacente, fornita di un frigorifero e una macchina da caffè, la doccia molto spaziosa materassi comodi. Per un soggiorno in questa splendida città, consiglio questa location

Nadine

Disliked: Cleanliness
Die Unterkunft war gut zu finden, allerdings haben wir keine Info vorab bekommen, wie wir in die Unterkunft kommen. Der Müll im Schlafzimmer wurde nicht geleert und es war noch Müll vom Vorgänger drin. Generell hötte es sauberer sein können. Die Lüftung in der Küche lief nonstop und nervt nachts teilweise, da die es auch keine Türe gab. Die Lage ist super und auch die Größe war mehr als ausreichen. Es hätte nur sauberer sein können.

Er was slechts een half rolletje toiletpapier beschikbaar en de shampoo en zeep dispenders waren leeg. Het bed is van een uitstekende kwaliteit. Mooie uitvalsbasis om het centrum van Gent te verkennen.

Nous avons eu un petit problème pour recevoir notre code d’accès à la propriété. Nous avons contacté les propriétaires et ils nous ont répondu très rapidement. La chambre était très propre, par contre le réfrigérateur ne fonctionnait et les ustensiles de cuisine ne sont pas nombreux. Nous avons tout de même passé un bon séjour.
