The name does not betray the expectations: it was a tale, and it was a Flemish one; however not necessarily a pleasant one.
The automatic check-in/check-out do not help in entering in the city environment of Ghent. The communication with the codes worked well, so no problem for that. The building is very traditional and quite nice. Position fantastic in the very centre of Ghent. But.
My room, number 4, was on the fourth and last floor. I had really and almost literally to climb between floor three and four, with a wooden stair. No lift: I would NEVER recommend it in particular to people with mobility issues and/or large baggages.
The room: more an attic than a penthouse. Bed: rather comfortable with quality sheets. The additional pillows in a small wall closet were horribly stained.
Towels: I had just two shower towels, no hand one, no shower mat. The quality was great, really, but it is not normal to have just the large towels.
Toilet::incredible. The basin in the room. The WC behind a room, next to the shower (separated). All this within the room.
No moquette (great!) but parquet: a very old and creaking one (a bit rotten close to the shower... Without the mat is not surprising).
A good coffee machine was available. Some kind of a strange puff and a couple of chairs were also present.
No TV at all. WiFi working correctly.
In general, not recommended.
