This is a really incredibly lovely apartment in a fantastic Ghent location. We were sorry we were only able to have a short stay.
We did have an issue with being left in the rain for 15 minutes while messaging the host, another example of why we'll usually try not to use "meet the host" check in if we can avoid it. In this case we were at the door within 2 minutes of our agreed-upon time and unfortunately Martine didn't hear our messages come in. We finally dared to ring a bell I thought might be hers, and it was.
Additionally, we were sorry to find the WiFi router uses a truly ancient protocol (WEP) which means it's basically insecure, and we wished there had been a trash can, rather than a variety of bags which we had to remind our host to provide (they were described in the house rules, so we knew to expect them).
Other than that, we thought the stay went quite well and we were grateful to be able to stay in this really beautiful apartment. We had a great sleep and enjoyed the big comfy couch. For folks who are up for a little extra communication to make sure you have everything you need, this place is really super.
