I don’t know if there is an open space for people to seat together, may be it will be great to have a place to drink coffee together with people.

The room is so beautiful and well decorated.

All good

Stayed in November 2023

It was a very warm day and the room heats up quickly and the heat lingers. Fortunately you can open the windows at night and it cooled off quite nicely.

Incredibly charming and there is a lot of loving detail in the decoration and amenities in the room. Also impeccably clean. I felt very comfortable and at home. Location very good to the next grocery store, several restaurants and even a nice park for a walk nearby. If you want you can lend a bike and visit the charming city center of Ghent.

Beautiful room like you are sleeping in a palace.

It’s an old building, so it can be a little noisey (either from the room next/opposite you or from the stairway). Purely mentioning this for light sleepers; I personally had no issues with it.

The room was very spacious and comfortable. The hostess was accommodating and friendly. We were offered free bikes, but wanted to walk (only 15 mins to city centre), so we did not use them.

Very close to Daamport train station and close to local bus stops to take travellers into the city.

The bike I got was not in great shape unfortunately but the host was available in fixing the problem. The room I got was facing the road which at times was a bit noisy, so I would advise asking for the rear room. I was only missing a creamer for the coffee, a coffee mug, and a spoon (there were two long glasses for drinking and a coffee machine, and sugar, but no creamer nor spoons to stir).

The room is beautiful, comfortable, and pleasant. The location was great for my needs in the area, and felt private. The host was super friendly, available, and helpful. I was very glad that I could use a free bike as well!

Great, spacious room. Very clean and lots of character! Free bike hire was very useful.

No complaints at all.

Sandra was lovely and we were grateful for the early check in. Great size room including small kitchen and couch. Decorated to a very high standard. Took advantage of the free bikes as well. 🚴

Maison Mielou is a stunning place, any art lover would be thrilled to spend a night there. We adored the details and everything was cozy and perfect for relaxing after a day of walking. Sandra is also a very thoughtful host, always ready to give us recommendations for places to go and try out.

We loved our stay. The host is very kind amd always ready to help if you need anything. If you are consodering staying here, just do it! You won’t regret it.

Breakfast was very good and I had eaten enough for breakfast and lunch :) Bicycles were available for use which was super to explore both city and the surroundings like the nature reserves. We could park the car in their garage.

Stayed in July 2021

The insulation was just bad - it was incredibly hot - 25 degrees outside, inside in the room 30 degrees or more. We try to sleep with the windows completely open but it didn‘t get any better. In Winter this might be helpful as the room stays cozy and warm, but in summer without AC it’s not to do. The way to the city centre - 30mins by walk is quite long. We asked to change to another room when amending the booking dates but did get any feedback on that request.

The green room was nicely furnished with an eye for details.

Stayed in September 2023

We were given another room than the one reserved. We were not prevented in advance that the booked room is unavailable, nor given the possibility to cancel. Furthermore, we did not receive any partial refund for the inconvenience and for the comfort difference (the new room was very basic compared to the elegant, luxurious room we had reserved). The aspect of the room was the only reason for making a booking at this accommodation - not receiving the booked room was a huge inconvenience. Other things we didn't like : - Dust in the room - Very warm room, with no air conditioning - Insufficient toiletries and towels - For 2 persons we received 2 towels (we had to ask for supplementary towels) and one tiny (hotel-sized) shower gel - Location (far from the city center) - Attitude of the staff (they treated the room change like it was no big deal)

The design of the building

Stayed in August 2022

An old house is charming, but this suite really needs maintenance. The heater valves are broken, so it was not possible to have a comfortable temperature in the room. It was either boiling hot or freezing cold (February). The bathroom taps are a bit broken and the floor boards squeak very loudly. The windows are very old, so it was quite noisy in the room.

We had the suite with the blue interior and it was certainly charming. Whether the interior will be to your liking is of course subjective, but we liked the quirky decoration and the strong colors. The host Sandra is very friendly and very responsive. Location is ok - 5 minute walk to bus station and then 15 minute bus ride into town.
