Aside from a minor miscommunication issue with check-in, we had a wonderful time staying in Ghent at Daan's place. It couldn't be more convenient to the station for day trips to some of the various cities nearby. The kitchen was a great feature that allowed us to cook some of our own meals in contrast to eating out all the time. As other reviewers have mentioned, it can be pretty bright in the mornings so sleeping inn might be difficult unless you have some eye masks. This is a great option if you're looking to stay in Ghent.
