I highly recommend anyone planning to visit Gent to go ahead and book your stay here. I don't think it can possibly get any better location wise. The apartment is super clean and very stylish. We didn't want to leave. You step out the door and right there is the Canal/River on one side and the main shopping street on the other side of the alley. Although it was super central, it is quiet and not too loud or noisy. There are countless nice bars and restaurants nearby for you to enjoy and the city can easily be explored by foot (check out the free walking tour or a boat tour to learn a little about the amazing buildings surrounding the inner city). What an amazing place. We will surely be back.
