The apartment is spacious and quiet, just right for a visit to Gent. It has a nice size with a separate bedroom perfect for parents and a living area with a fold-out bed, TV, desk, and small kitchenette, making it perfect for a small family of three. The service was very helpful, providing us with maps and town information, and the location is fairly close to the center, making it easy to get around. The dining experience was good for short visits, and the buffet style was one of the best we have had in a hotel. However, the dining area didn't seem to be refreshed promptly after earlier eaters. The facilities were decent, and the apartment is not far from the historical center.
