The house is absolutely lovely - even better than the pictures suggest. Sabine was lovely and very welcoming. We chose this place because it was close to the University of Ghent hospital site on de Pintalaan where I was working but it is also very easy to get into town on the no 5 bus (or walk if you don't have a three year-old with you!) for all that has to offer. It's great for the citadel park, SMAK and the museum telling the history of Ghent...also Kina the natural history museum is very close and well worth a visit.
