    Coffee machine was broken, and the shower didn’t drain well at all, which made taking a shower slightly stressful as the water filled up the tray. Tvs in bedroom also didn’t work, not a big deal though. I’m not sure how I feel about the sofa bed already being made when we got there. It’s a nice gesture but we had no sofa to sit on.

    Lovely apartment, as advertised. Very comfortable and clean. Small improvements could make it better.

    The Velux window blinds were broken and bizarrely, whilst there was plenty of hot water, we were staying during a heatwave and couldn’t get the shower cold enough.

    A beautifully presented apartment with huge rooms and very centrally located in the city centre.

    The perfect apartment (but lacking repairs)

    Steep stairs (but that's a cultural quirk of the Low Countries). Occasionally noisy at night-time. Lacks toaster and cafetière. It is a bit tired and requires some maintenance. No batteries in bathroom AC controller. (and in hot weather the upper floor is hot). Ice-maker in freezer door is broken. Light switch for bathroom/toilet is erratic (semi-dysfunctional). The window blinds in second bedroom are badly torn: unusable for excluding light. Mattresses very soft and the main bedroom one felt worn and uneven. Shower won't run fully cold. It feels like it needs 500-1000 euros and a day's TLC to bring this gorgeous flat back up to scratch. 15 years of operation have taken their toll.

    Location is wonderful for exploring centre of Ghent. Right next to bridge over the river. Beautiful airy sitting room with windows/French doors front and back; well-equipped kitchen, big fridge; two dining tables, high ceilings m; modern paintings and prints, spacious bedrooms and big bathroom. Utility room.

    Spacious high-ceilinged apartment in central location. Be prepared for a lot of stairs!

    The host was not very communicative - after booking I had a query about the configuration of beds which went unanswered for a month. Unfortunately, given the number of stairs, the lift is not in service, which wasn't great for getting luggage into the apartment, as I have a hip injury.

    Very spacious apartment on two floors, in an excellent location for historic city centre and shops. Big rooms, high ceilings and the kitchen was well equipped for our short stay.

    There was a lot of stairs that it doesn’t speak about in the description. There are four sets in one of the apartments. There is a loft but it was unreliable and kept getting stuck. There was no hand soap in the entire house and only one dish towel. A couple windows and lights were broken.

    The location was great and the amount of space. The rooms were comfortable and the kitchen had a good amount of plates and tools for cooking. Was nicely decorated and right on the canal.

    Rented for a base to explore Ghent and Brugge, and it was excellent for that. Located right along river, short walks to sights and plenty of restaurants, one right at entrance. Very nice property, larger than expected inside, clean and comfortable. Would rent here again. Well equipped for groups, wish we had taken advantage of kitchen/dining area. But only 1 keyset was provided, which created hassle for 3 people wanting to come and go separately. There are a lot of stairs-from entrance lobby to apartment entrance floor to living area floor to bedrooms/bath floor. There is an elevator to help with luggage at least. Washer and dryer very much appreciated. Skylight window covers in bedrooms need attention-would not open without fear of tearing them.

    A few things were not perfect and considering the price I would hope for greater attention to detail. For example, the laundry room had clothes left from a previous guest and a very dirty dryer lint catcher. There was not drying rack if you didnt use the dryer. The toilet roll holder was broken and sharp. There was absolutely no soap, even hand soap in the bathrooms. No hand towels provided to dry your hands and only one kitchen towel to dry dishes. The wifi was unreliable. Also the elevators was a little sketch and got stuck sometimes. Overall we really liked the property but these little things add up.

    Huge apartment with 2 levels (the 2 bedroom one). The beds were comfortable and things were clean. The location was impeccable. Highly recomend this place.

    Just a small issue with the shower, but nothing out of the expected for an old house pipes system.

    The location is perfect, just one block away from the main street and square. Furniture and design are quite remarkable, same as the quality of the bed and sofabed. Instructions were absolutely clear and helpful, even for an easy early check-in.

    The curtains in the main bedroom didn't fit the windows, overlooking a pavement and with bright street lights at night, this was the worst thing. There was a note saying please don't remove the toiletries, but there was only an empty hand wash, nothing else. There was mould in the shower.

    The location was excellent.
