Don’t Be Fooled By the Pictures
It’s hard to know where to start in reviewing this property - avoiding hyperbole it is in the bottom ten of places I have ever stayed at - especially for the prices charged. 1. The internet did not work **the entire 3 days of our stay**. Apparently it was going to be fixed after we left, one of the days of our stay was a national day so this supposedly slowed the process down. I can’t say if it was a service provider issue or not, but I can say that it was not functional for three straight days and the owner did **nothing** to recognize that a major service offering in her overinflated prices was not met. Her remedy was to go a cafe to get our internet. 2. It was dirty - the floor was clean but the upper reaches had hardened spider webs throughout many of the light fixtures. 3. The breakfast, a 12 euro extra, was awful. Not just bad but awful, the first day the owner was there and in fairness it was just underwhelming. The second day she left it to her assistant and he was disinterested - eggs were grossly undercooked, then the bread was removed before we could make up for the fact that the eggs were undercooked. So we were left with very little edible. The dishes from our breakfast remained in the eating area all day and most of the night - not that was particularly inconvenient to us but it was illustrative of the fact he left as soon as he could. 4. We were provided the kind of plastic credit card sized key cards you get at most modern day hotels. Perfect, j

Good morning Chris from Canada, thanks for taking your time to write this review. I'm very sorry I couldn't reach your expectations. I'm happy I can reply. Before your arrival, I provided all the informations about Covid19 guidelines to travel to Belgium. 1. About the internet: I did work, but slowly. So because you told me that, I did immediately a reset. I have signal amplifiers on each floor. After that I immediately made a phone call to the provider during your breakfast. They told me they had to change the modem. There were also problems in connection due to street works...Because the second day of your stay was a bank holiday, they could only come yesterday= 3th day of your stay = was the day of your check out. I told you that and appologied for that. Because you had an online meeting I was bothered and suggested you could have internet connection at a coffee shop in front of the b&b, only to try to help you. Your friend had connections with his computer and mobile phone though. 2. I will double check the rooms, with cleaning of the spots, this is very important for me. Thank you for your remark about this. 3. Breakfast buffet was offered with bread, rolls, cakes, muffins, yoghurt, cereals, flakes, ham, salami, cheeses, honey, marmelades, chocolates, fruit, orange juice, coffee, eggs ordered on demand (you ordered 1 boiled egg and 1 frie egg). Just for the readers: almost everything was left behind: despite some cereals and eggs and toast you ate. Sorry if the second day the eggs were not as you wanted: please tell us so we can improve. The cleaning was interrupted and done after 2h, because of a doctor's visit. Can happen. Note: if you book directly; breakfast is free. 4. keycard badges to enter the front door and room are easily to use, like in modern hotels. Both of you told me you lost your badge by text the second day. So I provided 2 new cards (cost for me10€ per card what I didn't count, of course). Thank anyway for your stay and I hope to welcome you with good internet connections now and breakfast choice as you want. With kindest regards, Mrs. Jo owner - general manager b&b saBBajon

B&B saBBajon was in a great location, easy walk to all the central restaurants and Menin Gate. Jo and her staff were so friendly and nothing was to to much, they went above and beyond. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good start to the day. I would defiantly recommend this property to anybody who is visiting Ypres.

BnB with character and style
Perfect blend of stunning art deco furnishings and modern stylish fittings. Clarisse, who showed us round was so helpful and attentive. Breakfast was outstanding with touches of class with the tableware. And all so close to the amazing Place des Héros (Town Square). Shared bathroom (with just one other room it seems) was totally acceptable given all these positives and an amazingly low price.

Hôtel à recommander malgre un manque d’accueil.
L’hôtel est bien situé à 2 pas du centre. La chambre est confortable et spacieuse avec douche et baignoire. Le petit déjeuner est correct. L’hôtel est calme. Les points négatifs:pas d’accueil ni de contact même lorsque j’ai appelé et laisse un message sur le répondeur. Pas de service de nettoyage alors que l’on restait 2 nuits. La lumière extérieure près de notre fenêtre au second étage côté rue était vraiment gênante pour dormir. Malgré ces quelques points négatifs nous avons passé un bon séjour.

Bonjour Cyrille,Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire positive. De gasten kunnen binnen met zelf check- in met de code die ze toegestuurd krijgen op voorhand; de meesten vinden dit handig en zonder stress. Aangezien ik ook full time werk kan ik er niet altijd zijn, of niet direct de telefoon opnemen; mijn excuses. Ik noteer jullie opmerkingen; bedankt!

Kamer tegen straatkant. Zeer veel lawaai van auto's. Ik had voor 2 volwassenen en kind gereserveerd. Er was maar plaats voor 2 personen en we moesten dan nog 40 euro opleg doen voor kind. Terwijl de boeking voor 2 volwassenen en kind was. Ontbijt was simpel, maar lekker. Voor die prijs toch meer verwacht dan producten van aldi.
