Excellent location, and excellent host. The well-appointed kitchen and opera house view were pleasant surprises. Would highly recommend! If you are a light-sleeper, it can get a little noisy, so bringing ear-plugs might be a good idea. But in my case, I lost no sleep. Very close to tram lines to explore Gent. In fact, if you arrive at Gent-Sint-Pieters rail station, definitely buy the multi-day tram pass, and take Tram 1 north to the Korte Meer stop.
