Thomas's flat is wonderful - everything you could need is provided and it is very modern and clean. Access to the flat is up some very steep wooden stairs, which was fine for us, but could be difficult for some.
The flat is in a great location, close to all the main attractions and lots of restaurants/bars. There is a tram stop nearby, but it is also only a 30 min walk along the canal to the main train station meaning access to Bruges, Brussels, Antwerp etc. is super easy.
The breakfast provided at Cafe Labath was great. They were so accommodating, providing me with a dairy free option for breakfast even though I had forgotten to tell Thomas I had a dietary requirement before arriving.
If you want to stay in Gent, I would definitely recommend staying here!
