Boutique Hotel Shamon — Hotel in Eeklo

Stop reporting this review road-worker, people have the right to know!! The owner is deceiving, unprofessional, and lacks customer service skills. We arrived there around 9 PM and at 10 he told us this is his house and that everything is closing (doors, lights), we need to go to our rooms and no alcohol allowed on the premise, except for the cheap options he offered; the booking was done at a "3 start hotel", not in someone's house. We booked 3 rooms, 2 comfort and a superior one. The superior one has a JOKE OF A BATHROOM. It is essentially a box with a curtain instead of a door and with the ventilation oriented towards the room where you sleep. How can this be a 3-star hotel that asks 170 per night and offers these conditions? We just wanted to go in the garden outside and have a drink before going to bed (we didn't even got a chance to take a sit) and he made a real show about it, that we are gonna make noise and scare the protected animals(?!) and that again, this is HIS HOUSE, and we need to obey his rules. Very defensive and child-like behavior, everything is the guest's fault, not his, started arguing with us, even mentioning this is a "boutique" hotel, meaning he can do whatever he wants. We were having such a good time, and suddenly, in the middle of our vacation, the hotel owner was arguing with us at 10 PM on the meaning of the word "boutique"! We left in the middle of the night back home. Suchlike poor customer service has never happened to any of us. BE AWARE FUTURE GUESTS, they guy has a RULE BOOK in every room that is not posted on the website of course, where are vaguely mentioned things that you can't do in his house and he will use it whenever is convenient for him. In a very creepy way, he stood by the window, tucked in the curtains, to check us out in the parking lot when we were leaving; what kind of hospitality business...

We received a very warm welcome from the owner who was understandably very proud of her restoration of the property.

Whilst the renovation is perhaps not complete, it certainly is near to completion and the property is a wonderful sight outside, and more impressive inside.

Our room was on the top floor and very spacious, clean and in keeping with the property. There is an "honesty" bar process which means you can grab a drink and sit outside or in the front sitting room. Breakfast was wonderful and we could not have been made to feel more welcome.

It's a 20 minute walk down a fairly uninspiring road to get to the centre where there is a varied choice of bars and restaurants.

If we are in the area again, we would not...
