Thomas is a wonderful host and his space is beautiful. It's a 2 min walk to the middle of downtown but only a walk downstairs to his amazing coffee shop. I started each day with an americano and catching up with Thomas. He went out of his way to make my stay amazing!
I'd suggest you spend at least 3 nights to see Ghent, I was there two nights only and I wish I'd stayed a 3rd. I'll be coming back to see Thomas again for sure!
