The suite was lovely with 2 decks. No living room area and the second day bed was not that comfortable. Suitable for a couple and perhaps 2 children. If you need 2 beds for adults I would recommend renting the separate bedroom for 30 euros per nightCaroline was very nice and helpful
Lovely old terrace house a public transport distance from CBD. The apartment is in an old house with lovely features and outlook. It is very clean and well appointed but a little tired. Window coverings need up grading and lights fixed so all lights work. We enjoyed our stay.
Loved the character of the building. Caroline warmly welcomed us and provided information about the area. The location is great! A short walk to the Bruxelle-Luxembourg station, a 10 minute walk to get the Hop on/Off Tootbus (stop #3), and to many parks, restaurants and cafe’s, in the European district. The unit were stayed in had outdoor space, and lovely historical touches. A bit jaded, but the bed was super comfy, so it balanced. The lower suite (which we were able to have a peek into) is fabulous!! Great spot to stay in Brussels!
The host was very helpful and provided good information on the things to see. House was very nice and very clean. On the down side the bed and pillows were not comfortable. Make sure to bring shampoo, soap and paper towels as these items are not supplied by the host.
We were in the apartment with a group of 4. Unfortunately, the two extra beds were not really comfortable, so we recommend to book the extra room (which is paid on top). So for four people the apartment is normally too small. Otherwise, we had a great stay and the apartment is in a great location close to the city center. The communication with Caroline was without complications and we had a very nice welcome.
This property was very nice. The location was excellent and the host was very responsive and provided lots of helpful information about the apartment and the area

What a lovely place to stay. We were greeted promptly when we arrived, settled in and immediately walked into the beautiful city center. There is so much to explore in this neighborhood and everywhere. We wish we would have had more time.
Precious apartment in a silent living area next to EU Parliament. Good walking distance for sightseeing tours through Brussels. Many thanks to Caroline for her kind and friendly welcome❣️
Very pretty and clean flat with 2(!) balconies in a good neighbourhood, well equipped kitchen. Great decor. Host was nice and helpful.The Institute of Natural Sciences is basically next door. Good connections with buses.Only the sofa in the kitchen was not so comfortable to sleep on, the flat is better suited for couples, if travelling with a group of friends it's probably better to book the additional room in the basement.
We enjoyed staying here while we discovered Brussels. The location was just right. Everything was clean and just as listed. One suggestion is to have a step stool to reach the kitchen cabinets, a little high for us, I needed to use a chair. Enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay at the appartment pretty much! It is pretty central and it was the best decision for us to stay at this beautiful apartment!
Thanks for everything!
Around the corner from the EU. Very comfortable apartment. Thirty minute walk to the heart of the city and the central railroad station. Loved the outdoor terrace.
A friendly, helpful host too, a park, a supermarket and restaurants nearby - no quibbles at all. Just worth noting that, as it says in the listing, the price is for two people and it costs a little extra for additional guests.
My partner and I stayed in this apartment in October. The apartment itself is beautiful with lots of natural light. It’s in a great location, with plenty of shops, restaurants, and activities close by and is also just a walk away from the centre of Brussels. The apartment was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. The check-in process was very smooth and Caroline and Fabrice were extremely helpful. I’d highly recommend this apartment to anyone coming to Brussels.
