Guest Reviews

• Monica (7/5): -
• Lilian (10/5): Een erg sfeervol huis, wat een een heerlijke plek! Van alle gemakken voorzien: heerlijke bedden een geweldige keuken in -
• Kayleigh (8/5): -
• Arwolt (10/5): - Gemakkelijk contact met eigenaresse. Gemakkelijk in/uitchecken. Geweldig voor een groep vrienden en een gezellig weekend in Gent!
• Jeroen (9/5): Fijne ligging, mooi appartement en een leuke stad. Alle ingrediënten voor een fijn verblijf! - Veel ruimte
• Kate (8/5): Great location with a generous host. - Location, suggestions for things to do, maps etc and the artistic elements of the building. Super steep stairs and pillows were really small and quite hard.
• Sonia (9/5): Genial - Es un alojamiento súper bonito, con mucho encanto,la ubicación es buenísima, cerca de todo, las camas son cómodas, en general, muy bien. Hay una zona abierta, con dos camas dobles y una individual y dos dormitorios dobles, el baño de arriba es todo abierto Las escaleras que suben al piso superior son un poco peligrosas, para nosotros no llegó a ser un problema pero si se alojan con niños o personas mayores son muy inseguras
• mcculloch (10/5): A lovely jewel in Ghent - Amazing house in a fantastic location of Ghent
• Alfredo (9/5): - la localización las escaleras entre planta y planta son incómodas
• Nathalie (10/5): - De locatie Voor mij heel donker beneden, gordijnen die open kunnen zou daar op prijs gesteld worden.
• Anna (10/5): -
• Bart (10/5): Fantastisch - Ligging en grootte
• Richard (9/5): Onze locatie was super en Gent was super. - Mooie ruime locatie waar het aan niks ontbrak. Slechts 5 minuten lopen van het centrum.
• carmelina (8/5): -
• Alper (3/5): - Konum Giris katinda ucusan bircok ufak böcek vardı, özellikle fırın ve bardaklar kirliydi. Cıkıs günü Sabah 8 de kapimizi ve camımızı coşkuyla çalan (muhtemelen temizlikci) bir bayan tarafindan uyandırıldık. Kötü bir deneyimdi. Muhtemelen ev sahibinin evin temizlik durumundan haberi yok.
• Annelies (8/5): Een heel fijn authentiek karaktervol huis waar je echt even kunt bijkomen van het levendige Gent - Superlocatie temidden in het oude stadscentrum. Heel karakteristiek en sfeervol ruim huis in een heel stil rustig straatje. Echt thuiskomen en je thuis voelen. Stijlvol en met vintage-liefde ingericht. De enorme hoge balkenplafonds en alle originele details, het heeft een enorme WAUW-factor. We sliepen op de bovenetage waar het bij 20 graden buiten binnen toch al erg warm was. Gelukkig wel ventilatoren aanwezig, maar met een warme zomer is het daar vast te heet. Het ontbrak aan hoofdkussens, matrassen ook wel aan vernieuwing toe. Veel lampen die stuk zijn en zitmeubilair ook best veroudert.
• Alfonso (8/5): Excelente ubicación. Muy amplio y cómodo. - Baños, situación y cocina. Falta más luz en la cocina.
• Arjen-travel (9/5): - Heerlijk verblijf gehad. Perfect voor een grote groep. Mooie ruime woonkamer.
• Nada (10/5): - The house was exactly what we wished for, localisation and enough space for all 5 of us.
• Deborah (9/5): Superb -
• Jack (10/5): Group trip to Ghent - Everything. It’s massive, great for groups.
• Simon (9/5): Great house , great city - Great location Cool property
• Marcus (10/5): Exceptional - A pleasure to stay in such a beautiful home; well located in a striking city.
• Ann (7/5): We had fun, but not enough positives to make us return in the future. - Location was great to sight see in Ghent and really close to major sites and great restaurants. Easy access to the house and responsive host. There was no hair dryer as advertised, but when I told host, she had her son bring one to apartment. Kitchen needed a good clean. There was food in the freezer from past visitors. Floors needed sweeping. No door on bathroom on third level, which was problematic. The bathtub is actually in the middle of the third level with no doors. Privacy definitely wasn't a major concern in the home's design. We had bugs on the third floor. One of my friends had bites on her face in the morning. I killed two small bugs above my bed in the night. Be aware that the stairs are VERY steep and narrow, especially to third level. We left our suitcases on the first level which wasn't ideal.
• Kathryn (10/5): Very comfortable & peaceful - We liked the house very much & the location was great for getting around the town with shops & a supermarket 2 minutes away for everything we needed transport nearby too We didnt dislike anything
• Celia (9/5): Comfortable - It’s comfortable, large rooms, and it’s got all the necessary for your stay. It’s clean and the host helps you with everything you need. Everything was ok.
• Katrine (10/5): Luxurious home - Amazing house with perfect destination to the city center.
• Yevhen (9/5): Superb -
• Katerina (9/5): Superb - Location is just few minutes walk from city center and the whole flat is awesome! Comfortable beds and furniture, clean and very spacious even from 5+ people. Communication with host was simply and easy. We have not been able to open door by the code, but the key worked for us luckily every time. As we were five friends we made fun from the open shower and toilet on 2nd floor (where are four out of five beds). Lot of steps.
• Owen (10/5): Would definitely return - The location was excellent and the space was well organized and feels like a comfortable, open space. All the rooms were big and it would be amazing for a family having a big master bedroom and lots of kids space at the top. Front door security isn’t perfect, it would be easy to get in for intruders etc, but that’s a minor issue since the neighborhood felt safe and very nice. That’s me being nit-picky since it was an excellent stay.
• Jo (7/5): Good - It is a great location, very stylish and the decor very good. On the ground floor, the bedroom forms almost like a mini-apartment, with a spacious studio room off the kitchen area with a bathroom on the same floor. The first floor living area is a fabulously open area, just like the photos (be mindful that stairs are quite steep, also like photos). The beds were comfy, there were plenty of towels, plus the kitchen includes essentials like tea/coffee/sugar/salt/oil, dishwasher/ washing up materials and some cooking ingredients which means you don't have to bring them in. The communication was very prompt and easy as well. There were a couple of initial check in issues, but we sorted them out OK. However, as mentioned in other reviews, the upstairs bedroom area, despite having a partitioned double bed room, is very open plan, with another double bed, single and ladder to a double bed in eaves (with limited head room), and a bath at one end, plus shower and toilet which are tucked in corner area so not completely open but there is no door. Don't worry if the door entry code system doesn't work - the key is a very reliable back up!
• Amar (10/5): Spacious modern property in good location - ideal for groups of friends - Extremely spacious property and a short walk from the centre of Gent. I didn’t know there was a roof terrace available so that was an added benefit. Bathrooms were large and fit and finish was good - modern and stylish. Host was also responsive. The upstairs bedroom / bathroom area was rather open plan so a little lacking in privacy or separation. This wasn’t a problem for us as a group of friends, but imagine could be more so if there’s say a few couples sharing.
• Michael (10/5): This is a beautiful property right near the heart of historic Ghent. - There was a keycode to unlock the door which we couldn't get to work. However, there was a key in a keysafe below it that we could use. Nothing
• Mariana (7/5): It wasn't perfect, but it had everything we needed and we enjoyed our stay! - We were a group of 7 friends and stayed at PARKHUIS for 4 nights. The house was very spacious: a ground floor with an open space kitchen, a bathroom and a very big room; the first floor was the living room; and the second floor consisted of a double bed room and then an open space with 2 double beds, a single bed and a bathroom. In our opinions, the best aspects of the house were the space, the first floor (which also included a terrace) and the location. The beds were very confortable and the water pressure on the showers was top notch. In the evening, the house got really warm which was very nice after a windy day outside. There were some negative sides in our opinions. The major one was the cleaniness. The areas we used more, like the beds, sofa area and bathrooms were clean, but then the kitchen, appliances and most surfaces could use a deeper cleaning. It also had a lot of clutter that looked like it was left behind by other visitors - this might add some charm but doesn't contribute to this feeling of uncleaniness. The smell wasn't very nice on the ground floor bathroom too (sewer maybe?). The other important negative side for us was the lack of privacy. The second floor had room for 7 people to sleep in - 5 in the open space and 2 in the room, but then the bathroom was separate by walls and didn't have any doors. We thought it was manageable since we're very good friends but if you're going with people you're less at ease with it may become unconfortable. If you stay here and choose take a shower upstairs be careful not to drench everything - the water doesn't go down fast enough.
• Alice (10/5): perfect - really cool property!! we loved the location and the place itself was really amazing and fun place for a group of friends to stay! the host answered any issues we had straight away.
• Sarah-jane (8/5): Very good - The property is in amazing Ghent in the old town. The property is beautifully furnished and stylish.
• Noelia (9/5): Vintage luxury in Ghent - The vibe of the house was amazing. The furniture and decorations were really cool! and with the modern kitchen, bathrooms, and moonlight bathtub, it made us feel like royalty! One of the toilets did not have a door, which made us embarrassed as we were traveling with colleagues
