Nice hotel, exactly what you'd expect from a building like this. Having to take your shoes off when inside the building was fun. We were in front family room, so was a fair amount of traffic noise in the morning but it didn't bother us. Glass sliding doors for the toilet was weird mind you. Overall perfectly nice

A cosy and well looked after Guest House with a generous and delicious continental buffet breakfast. Fleur (the host) is very welcoming and multilingual. Well recommended for visiting Brugge. 20 mins walk into the city centre or buses regularly run from close to the door.

All the touches of home. The room was extremely clean and comfortable. Very quiet. I often wondered if I were the only guest, only to come down each day to find the breakfast room full of people! The breakfast was outstanding! Thank you!

Good for couples maybe not families

Flier was very nice and breakfast staff were lovely as well. The family room for your people was disappointing as the photos made it seem there was more privacy but it is actually one room with two full beds of which one can be seperated in two. Expected more for the price. Breakfast was good and the common area was lovely.

Over and above excellent service that makes up for the short comings. Probably needs a lick of paint new carpets and windows. It was quite warm when we stayed and the windows opened inwards into the room the windows frames were very worn out and aged and were an eyesore.We were out most of the time so didn't bother us too much but if you are going to be indoors then might be a problem. Breakfast was ok. Close walking distance to all you need to see.

Great B&B within walking distance of City Centre

Very warm welcome by our hosts, lovely large room, including a lounge area, very recently redecorated. Lovely breakfast (including Gluten Free options). Owner was very helpful in suggesting restaurants and booking tables. Parking available at a very decent rate at premises across the road. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
