Terrible check in, too much stuff
Check in was not smooth at all. I was expected to reach out to the host. No welcome email from them. I had to meet the host in person to get my key for the unit. Most properties these days have a lock box or passcode system. Would not be such a big deal however I had to work around the hosts schedule. I wanted to meet at 18:00. They told me I would need to meet between 16:00 and 17:00 so I had to interrupt the activity I was doing. There was also no communication that the only way to pay was cash so I then had to walk with the host to the bank to get the right amount of cash. Unit is nice and good location but there is too much stuff. I can appreciate a well equipped kitchen but I was almost knocking coffee cups out just trying to get a plate out. Cabinets over full. Towels also smelt of cigarette smoke when wet. I realize many people smoke but for a non smoker this is not an enjoyable experience.

Bells is a small and cute apartment with patio on the ground floor. The photos on the booking site are very realistic. At the moment of booking the unit we send to the guest a confirmation and details of payment. Banktransfer or cash on arrival. He did not have cell phone so it was difficult to contact him. The afternoon of arrival he wrote on the booking website he would touring around Ypres a bit when he arrived there. I could welcome him when he arrived in Ypres so he could start his activity.I asked him to welcome him around 17:00 and this was okay for him. He was very pleased with the apartment when I showed him around.I went with the guest to the bank so he would not lose much time.I am not amused with his review.

Apartments Ypres - Superb!
Excellent stay at Apartments Ypres. Katie was very helpful and the apartment was exceptional. We'd have been mad to stay at a hotel! Ypres was very friendly, full of things to see and do, great restaurants. The Last Post at the Menin Gate each evening is a "must see" and for us, as Scots from the Highlands, it was even more special as the Ypres buglers were joined by a piper and drummer and some soldiers from a local Scottish Highlands Regiment. Their padre said a prayer, which was pretty moving to be honest! All in all a great visit and we would happily return. Thankyou very much Katie.

Very central, great host
These apartments are very central, less that a minute's walk from the Grote Markt and Menin Gate. They are well maintained, clean and comfortably furnished with a small kitchen, crockery and utensils, bathroom, towels, etc. My ground floor apartment had a small outdoor seating area. Your host is very friendly and helpful, and had many recommendations for things to see and do in Ypres - a few things I would have missed out on were it not for her advice. Recommended if you're staying in the city for a few days or a longer visit.

Super Central Apartment
This small 2 bed unit had it's own kitchenette, bathroom, courtyard & everything you could possibly need for a very comfortable short stay.Centrally located in the beautiful town centre of Ypres, it is a stones throw from the town square and easy walk to the Menin Gate. The owner's are incredibly accommodating & provided a lift from the train station which made our stay warm & welcoming & stress free .

Ypres apartments for me
Had such an amazing time, we were in great hands. We were greeted by Katie who showed us the features and space. Then gave us the lowdown on the area, places to eat and visit. Would come back here in a heartbeat. Absolutely loved the place. Cannot wait to come back, would highly recommend this place.

Although I was late arriving on midday Sunday due to a technology failure, the owner Katie was understanding and waited for me beyond the agreed check in time. The property was clean, really clean, tidy and well appointed. I paid for secure parking (a 60 second walk away) and Ypres town centre is only 180 seconds away and the large grocery store is about a five minute walk. Everything in the apartment worked and it was nice to be so close to everything. Highly recommend this apartment to anybody and I will be using again on my next trip over.

Fantastic Apartment in Ypres
The apartment was outstanding. It is situated close to all the great amenities available in Ypres. You can walk out the door and find local bakers, cafes and shops just a few steps away. The apartment itself is brilliantly equipped - everything has been thought of, so it made staying there a joy. The owner was kind enough to give us a lift from the station and gave us a really helpful introduction to Ypres and the flat. The latter is tastefully decorated and really comfortable. The wi-fi was excellent! In conclusion, I can honestly say that staying in the apartment was one of the best holiday experiences we have had. I would recommend it to everyone looking to have a really comfortable base to explore Ypres and the surrounding areas.

Make it your number 1 apartment in Yprès!!
What can I say! The apartment is amazing, all you need for a short stay. Large, clean, comfortable, relaxing. A stones throw from the centre of Yprès. Katie the owner met us after a quick call which you are asked to do before you arrive, she's a lovely lady and a wealth of knowledge for the area. Katie gave us loads of info and a list of her favourite places to eat and visit. We were also offered the use of one of her garages at a small charge which is behind electronic doors so very safe. If you want an apartment and not a hotel, I'd have this as my number one! We will return!

Appartment was generally very good and very well located. There is no parking (except for further payment), owner does not live on the premises and we had a little misunderstanding on arrival but otherwise it was excellent. We would certainly recommend it to any one wanting short stay accomodation in the cntre of Ypres.

Weekend in Ypres
Stayed a couple of nights in the Cathedral apartment. Had everything we needed and more and was well located for all Ypres main attractions. Car parking was a few minutes walk away on another street and was useful. One word of warning, the good people of Ypres close a lot of the town centre streets in the area on the weekends so getting back to the garage can be a challenge if you don't know the area or don't have a decent Sat Nav.

Ypres secret....
Apartment Ypres is excellent, in location, size and cleanliness of the apartment, definitely a 'home-away-from-home'! Katie and Caroline are gems, who went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible, allowing us to access the apartment early on a wet miserable day. A big vote of thanks for the extra effort in preparing the accommodation early for us.

Our wonderful stay in Ypres
Our holiday experience to Ypres was made or the more special with the wonderful apartment we stayed in. Where to start with my review?? We found the apartment easily after a short 5-10 minute walk from the train station. The location was perfect, just off the Market Square and very close to everything. It was also quiet in the evenings, a welcome change from our previous stop. The comfort, space and facilities in this apartment were tasteful, very spacious, cosy and extremely welcoming!! We had the double room at the top of the stairs with a nice outlook down the street and had every conceivable amenity provided. The apartment included a generous lounge and dining area, kitchen, bedroom and en-suite with plenty of quality linen. The bed was very comfortable! Our hosts met with us to provide an overview of how to operate things in the apartment and also provided several brochures, maps and information about what to see and do in Ypres. The one time I needed to contact them (to enquire where to find the iron and ironing board and yes they were also provided) our host was very responsive. Can't recommend this highly enough !!

Couldn't have asked for more.
We were in Ypres to run the Flanders Field marathon and visit my husband's Great Uncle's grave in Railway Dugouts Cemetery. We did this two years ago also, but stayed in a hotel last time. The hotel was very satisfactory, but for the same price the one bed room apartment was fantastic. Fantastic location and the apartment had everything we needed, and a very pleasant outside area to sit in. The service from Claudine could not have been better. We were met at the station and driven to the apartment with every need thought of. We will go back to Ypres and I hope that we can stay there again.

Lovely apartment. Very convenient location.
Nice bright apartment on a great location just off the main square. Larger than I though it would be. Well equipped and thoughtfully supplied things like tissues in the bathroom, few toys, cooking oil and tea and coffee. The kitchen had everything we needed and we cooked there rather than eating out so a big saving as eating out in Ypres is rather costly especially when you have 5 to pay for. On the minus side he counted the 16 month old baby as an occupant adding €50 to the cost. A couple of minor repairs needed such as re fixing the loo door handle and a more efficient shower screen.

Not as good as expected
Many visitors have awarded these apartments an excellent rating but I would disagree. I booked the ground floor apartment, the smallest of the three. On the Hotels.com website it says there is air conditioning but there is not. It says that it has a separate bedroom and a separate living area but it does not. It is basically a bedroom with a kitchenette in the same room. It says there is a lift but there is not. Therefore it was not what I was expecting. I felt misled. When you take a shower the floor outside floods with water. From what I understand this has been the case for several guests not just myself. Yet it is has not been repaired. Also the tap in the kitchenette sink is very loose indeed.
