Akira's place was the perfect place for our stay in Ghent. It is tucked away on a quiet street yet is incredibly close to the most lively and exciting parts of town. The flat itself was very nice and comfortable-- even better and brighter than the photos suggest. Akira was very helpful and communicative throughout. Most of all, we adored visiting Ghent, and hope to return soon. Highly recommended base for seeing this wonderful city!
