This was my first time using airbnb and I'm scared nothing will ever top our stay with Johan!

From the very beginning Johan was super attentive and informative. Upon booking I asked if there was any chance of picking up the keys a little earlier (and mentioned that I was to be celebrating my birthday in Ghent). Not only did Johan then leave the key at the nearby bakery for us to collect as we pleased he had also enclosed a birthday card for me! The room was spotless, the fridge stocked with belgium beer and the fruit basket filled. Although we only saw Johan in the morning It was clear that Johan really wants his guests to feel fully welcome in his studio and that we definitely did feel. He also has a great, loving dog who was at the studio to greet us!

Ghent itself was also beautiful with lots of things to do and see. Definitely recommend climbing the bell tower as well as taking a boat tour! As for bars we tried them all and can definitely recommend the bar "Drupplekot" (150 types of Jenever!) near to the studio as well as the one next to it.

I feel like I'm rambling but I cannot recommend Ghent or Johan enough! Do not hesitate to stay in this fantastically located place with faultless host!
