Perfect base to explore Ghent
We needed somewhere for 3 couples to meet and share a short holiday in Ghent - The Grain Loft turned out to be perfect. Spacious, well appointed and furnished, clean and situated within easy walking distance of the centre, it was ideal. It is also close to local restaurants and shops including a supermarket. Arrangements with Len were very smooth and the "starter" supplies were much appreciated. Thanks from all of us for a lovely stay.

Great place to stay!
We came to Gent for a conference and a visit with friends. The property was perfect for our group of 7 adults and children. Centrally located, spacious, and modern - both the adults and the kids thought it was a cool place. The owner responded quickly to any inquiry and was very gracious. Highly recommend!!

Light and airy loft for a group
The loft was perfect for the four of us. Location is a short walk to the center of Ghent. Across the canal was a hidden gem--Industrie Museum. And a lovely Italian restaurant. The loft was light and airy, the bathrooms modern. The common area has a nice seating area, a huge dining table and an adequate kitchen and a small powder room. Common area is up one flight of stairs, 3 bedrooms and baths a second and the fourth bedroom another flight (in case stairs are a problem). The host was immediately responsive to all of our messages.

Great apartment for our extended family.
Our extended family of 7 including our infant grandson had a great stay. The apartment was well within easy walking distance of Gent’s historic center. We would definitely stay there again.

Unique place, lots of steps
Our whole family loved the loft. It was unique. The kitchen was more than fully equipped, although we would have liked instructions on how to use the oven/microwave. In the end, we were very grateful for the toaster. It took a day or so to get used to the steep staircases. This place probably would not be suitable for toddlers or less-mobile adults, but our 8-12-year-old grandkids loved the top floor and had no problem scrambling up the ladder-style steps to the top-floor loft. We had no problem walking to sites all over Ghent. The neighbors on the whole block were friendly and showed us how to use the parking meters on the street. The garage accommodates one medium SUV-style car. We were visited a few times by a small mouse on the kitchen level, but the kids found it entertaining. We recommend this spacious, interesting loft.

Charming home close to town
Spacious home with lots of character. Unique design. It was about an easy 7 minute walk to the central area of Gent and there were a couple of nice neighborhood restaurants and a small market even closer. We were able to drop our bags off earlier which was nice. Large windows and skylights let in lots of light, The more modern exterior of the building did not reflect the charm of the interior. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Moderne accomodatie met garage in hartje Gent
Heerlijk vriendenweekend gehad in deze ruime en centraal gelegen accomodatie. Schoon en modern sanitair, sfeervolle inrichting. Misschien de keuken nog wat fatsoeneren en een beetje meer poetsen, maar verder helemaal niets op aan te merken.

Lovely loft!
We thought the apartment was lovely..cool, comfortable and spacious. It’s in a great location, a quiet area but near good places to eat and an easy walk to the centre. Host was easy to contact and prompt to reply. Only problem was the sofa cushions were a bit dusty, some of us a bit allergic… other than that, fabulous!

Holiday Fun
Lovely property with parking was perfect. Just 3 in our group so plenty of space to spread out and recharge after sightseeing and enjoying the holiday festivities. Safe quiet neighborhood, felt private yet relatively close to all the activities and attractions. The only negative for us were the scratchy towels and toiletries offered. Nice place to stay for people who enjoy walking and exploring, I would definitely recommend.

Enjoyable experience in a unique property steps from the centre of Ghent.
We enjoyed the location, the size, and the uniqueness of this property and would stay again in a heartbeat. The only minor complaint thay we had was that although the property was tidy and well equipped, it was not quite clean when we arrived. We communicated this upon our dwparture and I'm sure it will be rectified for future guests as the host was very redponse and communicative throughout the rental process. We did not let the minor issues affect our stay at the great property so close to the centre of Ghent. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Gran alojamiento cerca del corazón de Gante
Si tienes unos días para visitar Gante, este apartamento cerca de la antigua zona industrial y a solo día minutos del centro histórico es genial para tu viaje. Solo un paseo de 10 minutos por el canal te separa de todos los tesoros de la ciudad. La casa es un loft de varios niveles. La planta primera es un ENORME espacio abierto con cocina, comedor (una mesa muy grande y chulísima) y una buena zona de estar. Tal y como puedes ver en las fotos. Las habitaciones en plantas 2 y 3 son muy amplias y confortables (algunas son abiertas sin puertas; ningún problema para los jóvenes de la familia). Los baños son amplios y bien equipados El piso estaba limpio en general, aunque una limpieza profunda sería necesaria en algunas zonas. La tele no conseguimos que funcionase, aunque teniendo Gante al lado, ¿quien necesita una tele? El garage en la planta baja facilita mucho el acceso en coche. Lenn es un propietario fantástico. Siempre atento y contestando todos los mensajes de forma rápida y precisa. Hizo todo lo posible para un check-in rápido que fue de agradecer para dejar las maletas. En general todo perfecto! Repetiríamos ciudad y alojamiento.

Len was a fantastic host, he was really helpful. It was the perfect place to stay, tonnes of room for us and bikes on a trip to watch the Tour of Flanders. Great location too with only a 5-10 min walk to some great bars and restaurants. Thanks Len 👍

Prachtige loft in Gent
Super tijd gehad in deze loft in het hartje van Gent dichtbij het Industrie Museum. Loft bleek een mooie eigen bovenwoning op een ruime garage en bevond zich niet in een flat. Dit maakte het verblijf privé en zeer comfortabel en uniek! Heel veel dank voor dit fantastische verblijf.

We spent a very good time in Gent and everything was perfect. Very good contact with the host. The loft is very well located within the walking distance to the center of the city and very well equipped - you have everything you need. The possibility to park a car in the garage is an advantage which we have appreciated. Really to recommend. Thank you Len.

Super schöne großzügige und helle Ferienwohnung über drei Etagen
Wir waren mit Familie (9 Erwachsene) drei Tage in der Wohnung, es war ausreichend Platz für alle – für Kleinkinder muss man allerdings wissen, dass es steile Treppen gibt. An dem sehr schönen langen Holztisch konnte man super essen, spielen und vor dem Gaskamin, der auch Wärme abstrahlte, war es sehr chillig. Die Lage ist ruhig, bis in die Innenstadt ist man in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß gelaufen – hervorragend. Sehr angenehm ist, dass man von der Garage direkt in die Wohnung gehen konnte – in die Garage passen zwei normal große PKW. Wenn die Wohnung noch einen Balkon oder Terrasse hätte, wäre es das non-plus-ultra, aber auch ohne ist es eine absolute Empfehlung 😃.
