Burgstraat 17 Apartment in Exclusive Patrician House in Medieval Ghent

Incredibly clean and well maintained. The location is absolute perfection. Central to everything but on a quiet street. The owners were incredibly helpful and kind, including when I cut myself shaving and needed a pharmacy after hours!

N/a - everything was perfect!

The huge living area, air conditioning, the lift and parking

Fairly steep stairs to the bedrooms with no hand rail

The apartment was one of the most amazing I have ever seen in my travels. It was huge. The kitchen was amazing and had everything you could possibly want. Location was also fabulous.

It was very high-tech and I feel like some instructions should’ve been left as to how to work things, especially the lights, which I never mastered in the time I was there. The stairs to upstairs have no handrail and are very dangerous. They would be illegal in Australia. I left everything downstairs so that I only had to go up to sleep and then come straight back down again. It would be a simple fix and I’m surprised it hasn’t been done considering so many reviews mention the stairs. There is also a step in the master bathroom which you cannot see at night time. I forgot to leave the lights on and I had a bad fall on the step. I was very lucky that my head only just cleared the corner of the cross beam. Otherwise I would’ve been seriously injured. I have some torn muscles and a very bruised hand where I stopped the fall. The edge of the step needs some kind of marking like the one in the kitchen has. The instructions to lock the door when you are leaving make no sense as it says to press the centre button twice, but there is no centre button. After testing buttons 1 to 9 I finally worked out that the bottom right button, which is actually an arrow, is what you have to press twice. Again, leaving some instructions would alleviate all of these stressful situations.

It's beautiful and centrally located. The bed was really comfortable.

Nothing - it was amazing
