This bright, spacious loft was the perfect home base for my husband and my 4-year-old daughter's 3-night trip to Ghent. It is the perfect blend of old and new, as after a long walk up the dark, winding staircase you are greeted with a bright, modern space full of light and plants and designer amenities, as well as the beautiful exposed original beams of the house. We were there during very warm late spring weather, but all the rooftop windows/skylights have blinds that close to keep the sunlight out in the morning, and the air conditioner worked brilliantly. The huge rain shower and the biggest bathtub I have ever stepped into made every trip to the bathroom feel like a day at the spa.
The location is ideal, as there are cafes and restaurants just outside the front door, and the medieval center of town is reached in only a few minutes walk.
Sophie and Laurens also greeted us in person and communication throughout was friendly and easy.
