The place was perfect for the price. The public transportation (tram) was close (200 m). Easy accession by car, close to the highway. Morning drilling in the building was little annoying. Hallways were worn out, but all was functional.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Reception was great very happy until we saw the very tired room although the bed was quite comfortable, the aircon didn’t work. The Expo had an all day and night rave or drum and base event and it lasted until 4.30 in the morning. Restaurant food and service was poor service had to be requested. The best thing about the stay was the breakfasts which were bloody good. Access to the tram was very convenient.

Memnun kaldım

Otel fiyatına göre çok konforluydu. Kusur olarak sayacaksak eski idi uzun zamandır yenilenmemiş ama her şey yüksek kalitedr idi. Ütü, ütü masası, mini buz dolabı gibi ihtiyaç duyulacak çok şey mevcuttu. Yine olsun yine kalırım. Sevdim. Bence tek sorun 15 Euro otopark ücreti idi. Ben de aracımı dışarı çektim. Sorun olmadı

Heel erg verouderd hotel, raam van kamer sloot amper waardoor ik de hele nacht alle auto’s hoorde en de wind voelde door het raam komen. Schimmel in badkamer in siliconen randen. Dringend tijd voor een renovatie. Bed lag wel uitstekend.

Le personnel est très accueillant. Le restaurant est à conseiller. Il y a un billard et un baby-foot à l'entrée. Le départ du tram T1 est à quelques minutes à pied. Indispensable pour se rendre en ville, car la circulation à Gand en voiture est difficile.
