PARKING: Two private parking spots available for €15 / booked night / car.

The house was extremely convenient, and all essentials were provided. The owners are very responsive. Just be mindful that homes in this neighborhood might have staircases which are not easily accessible for anyone with mobility issues.

Cute and unique place to stay with lots of character and a beautiful view from top floor sky light window, also: great location. One note: on the details it mentions there is a first floor bedroom and bathroom. Coming from the US, first floor means ground levelno steps. However, when we arrived, we realized first floor in Europe means the first floor ABOVE the ground level floor, which meant our parents had to navigate the stairs after all.

What an amazing stay we experienced in Ghent! The house had so much charm. Our boys 11 and 12 absolutely loved it. Huge master bedroom for me and my with tons of sunlight. Great bathrooms, open and cozy kitchen. Right in the heart of the city center, but you wouldn't know because it was so quiet. Easy to get anywhere! Quick tram ride and short walk from Saint Peter train station. Can't recommend enough. Thank you, Jan, for a wonderful experience!

Ghent Town House
The property is in a perfect location just 5 mins walk along pretty streets to the old town with nice bar and patisserie close by. Quiet day and night and convenient parking nearby. Lovely house, generally as described but be aware the stairs are very steep; difficult to carry a baby or suitcase. Also there are no comfy chairs or proper lounge area apart from the ground floor kitchen.

Lovely place, recommended
We had a really nice stay here with 4 adults, 2 children and 1 toddler. The house is exactly as described and was really nicely done. The location was nice, quiet and still close to the center.
Just a side note, it was quite hot outside when we were there and the attic bedroom was too warm for us. The other rooms stayed ok with the fans provided and downstairs stayed nice and cool.
