We loved the apartment & the location. Convenient to St. Bavo’s cathedral area, we walked everywhere from our central location. The apartment was super clean, well furnished and stocked with essentials. Would definitely stay there again.

We loved our stay at Joosts apartment. It was super clean and cozy, a great kitchen and very comfortable bed and just a 10 minute walk into the main tourist area, so the location was fantastic. Joost was so kind and made us feel very welcome. If we ever visit Gent again we would stay here again without hesitation. Thank you so much Joost!

Excellent all around… location was a bit farther from city center but the walk allowed us to sample more of the delicious foods and drink. Would stay again and recommend to others.

Joost's place was perfect for our weeks stay in Ghent. It had absolutely everything we needed and was in a fabulous location. It is in walking distance of all the sites and also to lovely cafes, bars and restaurants. We had a lovely stay in Ghent and highly recommend Joost's place. Thanks Joost.

This is a lovely comfortable apartment that is about a 15 minute walk from all the attractions in town and very close to a bus/tram stop which is very convenient. It had everything we needed.
Very nice place, and the owner was helpful. The only problem was the very hot days made it tough to keep the place from being an oven. We were grateful that the bedroom at least had AC!
A very well appointed apartment with everything we needed and more. Excellent communication with the host who had thought of everything. The parking was very convenient and the city only a 20 minute walk. Definitely recommended.
Everything about our stay was amazing. Joost was a wonderful host. He reached out to us with all of the necessary information well before we arrived and checked in while we were there. The apartment was better than advertised. When we arrived there was water and juice waiting for us as well as snacks. The location is perfect for exploring Ghent. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Met our needs fully.
Steep stairs to be aware of if you have any sort of mobility issues.
Good location in relation to city center, only about a 20 minute walk.
A lovely stay in this well equipped appartment. Short walking distance into the heart of Ghent. Bed very comfortable and great shower facility. Note to anyone booking with knee or accessibility problems, the stairs are quite steep. But we thoroughly enjoy our visit to this clean and welcoming home. Suggest booking the car parking which is near by, as parking is hectic in Ghent. Thank you for having us.

The modern and cosy flat is ideally situated , the old town center is within easy walking or cycling distance. The host kindly offered his support repeatedly and we received all the necessary information. The flat contained everything we wished for so we were completely happy with our stay. All in all it is highly recommendable.
We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. The apartment was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with every kind of gadget you could need. My only concern is that there are two sets of fairly steep stairs which might be a problem for some people it wasn’t for us, and our stay was terrific.

Nice place, pretty town
Very simple and clean. Joost, a nice guy, lives next door and was very kind to two stupid guests who locked themselves out and had to call him on Sunday morning to get back in. The apt is maybe 10 minutes' walk from the beautiful center of town on a reasonably quiet street. We had a terrific time in Ghent.
Good sized flat, well-equipped, very clean and smart, 15 minutes walk from historic centre. Air conditioner/fan in bedroom and another fan in sitting room. Would have preferred blinds/curtains which block more light/heat.

Wonderful Stay in Ghent Townhouse
We met Joost at his business next door, parked our rental car right in front (free parking), and were able to check in early. Everything was spotless, nice sized kitchen, comfortable living room, excellent bed, and amazing bathroom. There were no surprises. HIs maps of the city were very useful as we explored the neighborhood and Ghent Centrum. We walked everywhere, buses were available nearby though. A small grocery was nearby for meats, cheeses, and wine. Recommend this place without hesitation.

Hi Michael, thanks for this nice review! Hope to see you again. Joost.
Our stay in Gent and the apartment were better than we could have imagined! Joost has thought of everything you need and the kitchen is stocked. The apartment was beautifully clean, the mattress is new and comfortable and the bathroom and shower are modern and big. The apartment is only a short 10 minute walk from the center of Gent, which is awesome and a 10 minute Uber ride to the central train station, making it a perfect place to stay and easily be able to get to other cities like Brugges, Brussels and Antwerp. Truly the perfect location! Joost was easy to reach and responded immediately with any questions we had or help that we needed. It was a wonderful trip and if we find ourselves in Belgium again, we will definitely stay at this beautiful apartment again. I highly recommend this beautiful apartment for a truly lovely stay in Belgium!! Thank you Joost!!

Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Es freut mich, dass die Wohnung Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Sie sind jederzeit wieder herzlich willkommen in Gent.
Eine wunderbar ausgestattete, moderne und makellos saubere Wohnung. Besonders gefallen hat uns die Nähe zur Straßenbahnhaltestelle (200 m) und die hübsche kleine Privat-Terrasse. Die Wohnung umfasst fast das ganze kleine Haus. Die Treppen sind steil, aber dafür gibt es keine Nachbarn oben oder unten, was für angenehme Ruhe sorgt. Netter Kontakt mit dem Vermieter. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
