We had a great time. The apartment overlooks a bustling square and you can see the castle as well. We had one issue with some missing bedding but the owner was immediately responsive and very kind. We were also treated to the most spectacular sunset on our last night.
The appartment is spacious and adequatly furnished. Located just in the center makes it's a great option to discover the city on a short stay. It is close to a tramway station which is passing just by it, and the lively neighbourhood is pleasant to eat and drink without having to go to far. We enjoyed our 2 nights stay there
Great location in the heart of Gent. Walking distance to most attractions. The apartment had a large living space with fantastic views of the square and castle Gravensteen.
We absolutely loved it here. It was so spacious, clean and well furnished. The beds were very comfortable and communication with host was excellent. The views from the apartment were stunning and the location could not be beat. Would stay here again for sure. Thanks for having us!
We very much enjoyed the central location and the view over the old busy square. The apartment is modern, stylish and well equipped. Great space and great location! Thank you.
Great rental property in Ghent. Bright, spacious & comfortable. Host provided excellent & timely communication. Listing should be updated to reflect there is 1 bathroom with shower, tub & 2 sinks & a separate water closet with toilet & sink. The location was convenient & easily walkable to markets, pharmacy, shops & cafes. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the space and convenient location, and I'll look into listing details as you suggested.
You are always welcome back!
This is a fantastic place to make your stay in Gent very special. From the spacious and stylish living room, you have a nice few of the square and the Vleesmarkt. With the windowns open, it’s like you’re part of the buzzing atmosphere. The appartment is spacious and nicely styled. Highly recommended!
This apartment is so spacious with windows all round the main area and great views of the square below. Its central location was great with bars, restaurants, shops and tram stops on the doorstep.
Everything was exactly as described in the listing. The beds were very comfortable and had lovely, good quality bedding.
Our host Anthony responded incredibly quickly to any messages I sent and the check in process was really simple.
Highly recommended!
The apartments location was wonderful and the apartment itself was roomy and comfortable. Online it indicated 2 toilets however, there was only one. This should be corrected on VRBO. It shows a picture with 2 toilets. Future tenants should know that there is only 1 bathroom with a shower and a toilet closet in another space.
Best experience I've ever had! I can't say enough about this place - everything was fantastic! We stayed there for 5 days (3 adults, all women). The apartment was exactly as described, even better: it's super spacious, greatly designed, centrally located (everything within walking distance), and very safe (only the tenants have an access to the entrance door). Everything was very clean and very very comfortable and cozy. It's perfect for either a few days or a long-term stay. Plenty of space (we loved how uncluttered the place is!), fantastic view from the window. Lots of space in the kitchen/diner area for sitting/eating. Noise was not a problem.
Anthony was super helpful and responsive to all messages (he responded so quickly that we never had to worry). When we had a small issue, he stopped by (for our convenience) and helped to resolve everything, it was very kind of him!
The check-in process is easy, and Anthony sent us very clear instructions about everything. Also, he let us to store our luggage in the apartment before the check-in time which was super helpful!
There is a great supermarket (Albert Heijn, don't go to Carrefour express (also very close), AH Korenmarkt has everything you need if you decide to eat home) - less than 5 min walking distance.
Top accomodation in Ghent! If you look for a place to stay, look no further, this place is a gem, and Anthony is the best host! We are very grateful for this experience, and will recommend this place to everyone!
