B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum
Overall very clean! Suited our needs well for the one night we were in Ghent! The breakfast was not great so we opted to eat elsewhere despite paying for the breakfast. Other than that it was fine!

Staff were amazingly polite and welcoming. Room was clean and with plenty of room. It was quite loud so bring ear plugs but would definitely stay again!
