Mael and her mother are very welcoming and their guest interface is second to none. She took the time to clearly communicate instructions for the green attic so that we fully understood. She promptly answered questions about the local area and Ghent and even assisted us in making dinner reservations our first night( so we could overcome the language barrier). The attic is cozy and quiet.
We were not sure about using the public transit to access downtown, but we used it and it was super easy and in less than 30 min we were downtown. We visited Ghent during a three week trip throughout France and it is amazing.
