Nicely updated and clean apartment. I was looking for an apartment with a bathtub and a coffee maker, both of which this apartment had. I didn't realize it didn't have a full stand-up shower. The shower is handheld in the tub and I couldn't get a full spray from the shower. It didn't bother me too much, however, the water was always hot. Be sure to bring your own bath soap. This apartment only had dish soap. The coffee maker was great. There were pods that made a great espresso and sugar cubes. There was also tea. It is a full sized kitchen if you decide to eat in. The bed was comfy although it doesn't have a regular mattress. Honestly, I think it was more comfortable than other beds I slept on during my trip. I wasn't sure if the bedding was clean. The top blanket didn't smell clean and the bottom I wasn't sure if it was a comforter or a feather bed, because it wasn't folded like most places do and there wasn't a cover on it. Being from the US we do things a little differently here. I already mentioned to the host and I'm sure he will take care of it. The fire place worked great and there are 3 heaters in the apartment you can control. Even though there are several skylights it was always warm and never drafty. There is a small TV that had many several local channels. Wifi worked great. Location was great. 5-10 min walk to the sites, center of town or to the nearest tram. If you arrive by train be sure to use Google maps as the directions that were emailed to me were outdated. Burgstraat and Gravensteen stops were closed and there is construction. It made it a little stressful for me, never being there before and the kiosk as the tram wouldn't take my credit card or debit card and then the directions were confusing. I asked a local and they confirmed it was the correct tram, but I had to get off a few stops beforehand and walk 10 minutes. Once I arrived around 1:30, there wasn't any room left in the storage closet to store my luggage. Someone else beat me to it. Luckily there was a woman cleaning and I was able to leave my luggage in the apartment. This apartment is on the top floor, which makes it great for privacy, but the stairs are steep and there is no handrail. Just be careful coming down, because it can be tricky if you have large luggage. Overall this place was fantastic and a great value. I would definitely book it again and hope to visit Gent again when visiting Belgium.
