Barbara's place was the perfect location for a long weekend with friends. The kitchen was well stocked with tools for cooking up brunch, the living space was perfect for a group of 4, and you cannot beat the location! A pleasant 5 minute walk to the Carrefour Express grocery store, a 2 minute walk from excellent bars and restaurants, and located right behind Gravensteen Castle - this place was in the absolute best location in Ghent.
The beds are a little awkward - one couple was sleeping Lucy & Desi style in twin beds, while the other couple was on a very low platform bed that was hard to get in/out of. There was also some morning construction noise across the street but it didn't persist into the weekend. These minor complaints are well worth it when you take the location and amenities into consideration.
Barbara was very accommodating and we appreciate all of her efforts towards making this a fun, pleasant weekend. If we ever find ourselves in Ghent again, we will definitely be requesting Barbara's flat!
