Our stay at Toms was Phenomanal. They were Friendly, Generous, and very helpful with local direction and tips. They offered us breakfast, and offered to cook dinner for us. We took them up on the breakfast offer, but took there advice for a fabulous restaurant in town. There Beautiful home a mile or 2 from the main square, but is a comfortable walk for some semi out of shape, yet young and semi active individuals. All along there beautiful street is a culture that you do not see in down town Gent. As an outsider it was fun to be able to see these different cultures on the way into the downtown Square. Tom and his Wife Marinda are very Nice and you will have a great stay.
On a side note, Your room is on the third story, and it can be a bit narrow/steep to get up there. Something we really enjoyed the experience of, yet could be difficult for some elderly or obese individuals.
