We loved this location! We could bike to many interesting destinations and there were a bunch of restaurants in walking distance. The street had very little car traffic. There was some noise from people chatting outside the restaurants below but it was not disruptive. The room itself was very well appointed and we were able to actually relax after nearly two weeks in hotel rooms prior to this stay. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the couch and people watching out the windows. Some downsides/criticisms:- This room is only accessible via steep stairs and the bed has another very steep stairway leading up to it. Not a problem for those with young knees but could be difficult for some.- The light switches are very confusing! This sounds minor, but there are like 20 switches. Some labels or pictographs would help.- There's something strange going on with the shower temperature knob. It seemed like turning the knob all the way "on" resulted in cold water and the hottest water was at the position where the water just began to flow. Maybe the mixing valve was installed incorrectly?I felt like my criticisms of the room did not impair the experience significantly and we truly enjoyed our stay. We can recommend this room and we highly recommend Ghent as a fun, relaxing location for those exploring Europe.
