We loved our stay in Ghent due to a number of reasons. First, Carmen is a great host! We arrived on site one hour late (not easy to find the way for car in a city with lots of one way streets) and she welcomed us with fresh bread, belgian beer, chocolate and cheese in the fridge. Second, compared to other apartments that I've rented via Airbnb, this place was really spacey and well-equipped, in recently renovated building. Third, everything (except the museum of fine arts, where the famous altarpiece is restorated till 2017) is nearby, as this place is really in the historical centre of the city. I recommend Carmen without reservations.
