Years ago, I stayed (cheaply) at a centrally located convent in Bruges. Current tourism sites seem not to include convents....Have they stopped offering accomodations? Or are they not advertising?
Any advice on convent accomodations in the Low Countries?

Maybe you stayed at the Beguinage? We were in Brugges several years ago and it did not appear they offered acommodations. It surely would be a beautiful place to stay though.
