B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum
Was charged 15 EUROS for 2 hours early check in otherwise was offered to drop bags before check in for a fee. Not a friendly experience, would not recommend to my traveling friends. Poor amenities, rooms very small.

The Hide
The Daydreamer was well located, and very attractive, with trompe l’oeil fragments on the ceiling. Everything was well appointed, and the shower gel smells wonderful. The staff was responsive and helpful.
