If you are planning a visit to Gent, STAY HERE!! Ben is THE BEST host I have ever experienced. He was available at all times, and very responsive. The WIFI is fast and reliable. The fridge was stocked with everything we could want for breakfast, AND he brought fresh baked breads every morning. The place was perfect, and spotless. The beds were very comfortable, which is very important. Trust me when I say, the LOCATION IS PERFECT! 2 Short blocks to the central square and easy walking distance to pretty much everything else. There are bars, restaurants, and a wonderful supermarket, literally right outside the door. I have 2 bad knees and I was able to get around from here without any problems. It was an easy 30 minute drive to Bruges for the day. Be sure to visit Ben's families chocolate factory in Bruges. The Belgian waffles are his grandmothers recipe and they are beyond outstanding! The hot chocolate... you have never had anything like it. Trust me... go and try it!! When I return to Gent, I will definitely stay here again. Thank you for everything Ben!! You were truly awesome!!!
