The description was 100% accurate. The host family communicated near instantaneously with the proper information both before and during the stay. Location is near perfect. Easy access to highway and safe. Not a bad walk to where you would want to go either. As great as the location was, the host family is what really impressed me. They made us feel right at home and are sincerely interested in you having a positive experience, not just in their home, but in all of Ghent. Lots of information on the city is just part of what they provided. I can't say enough good things. Our trip was basically an adventure in a new city where you felt like you were staying over at an old friend's home.
