Location and staff

No sound isolation at least where "slots" - cheaper rooms - are located. They are indeed slots. I was at a conference there but would prefer an rbnb style studio available at the same price.

"Great atmosphere"

8.0

Staying in a comfortable cell of a former monastery is a real treat! The breakfast was fantastic with salmon and sparkling wine!

The power socket close to the bed didn't work. And there was a fire alarm at 5:30am.. not a word of explanation or excuse from the staff.

"Comfortable stay in an old monastery"

8.0

The room was comfortable. The free wifi was good. Instant coffee and tea were available close to the room. It really is an old monastery, which is really cool. The location was excellent - a great base for exploring historic Ghent.

The toilet nearest my room did not have a separately locking door, which made me a little anxious. It was a little expensive for what you get.

"I would not recommend it if your seeking a spiritual experience."

7.0

The experience, but I did not feel any spiritual energy. Merely an accommodation facility.

Facility hosted a Loud party until midnight. The cost was high for the value.

"One night in Ghent"

8.0

Cute old monastery turned into a guesthouse. It still has that old feeling (don't know if it's a good or a bad thing). It's a no thrills place, but for that money, it's a pretty good deal.

Not too luxurious, but what you see is what you get.
