Central Brussel - steps Grand Place - local vibrant neighbourhood

The location and area are excellent, with cozy and charming cafés and pubs nearby. Antonio was a great host — easy to communicate with and very responsive. He also recommended some great nearby places to eat, which were really good. The flat itself was very cozy, with big windows and plenty of natural light. Totally worth of money.

The flat I booked was on the fifth floor with no elevator (you can book in lower floors too) so keep this in mind if stairs are difficult for you. However, the location, area, host, and facilities compensate for this. Overall, it is still a good choice and good value for money.

I have used booking.com for years and I have to say this was the best appointed apartment ever. The host had coffee and tea, creamers, sugar, oil, salt and pepper, and snacks...no other host has made it so easy to relax. You will love the location, easy to see all the sites and lots of restaurants right outside the door.

3rd floor walk up (don't forget, in Europe the first floor is 0) and a small bathroom, but seriously, if you are fit those items aren't an issue. The pluses far outweigh these two items.

The location of this accommodation is unbeatable. It is a ten-minute walk to Grande Place; the metro station is in the square at the end of the block. There are shops and restaurants everywhere. The accommodations themselves were exactly what we needed. The exterior door opens onto a narrow hallway and stairs - lots of stairs. Our unit was on the third floor and had a nice view of the beautiful masonry in Brussels (see pictures). It also had privacy and lots of light. The living room area is a good size, as is the kitchen. We appreciated the coffee and tea that were in the unit. The bedroom is smaller, but it accommodates a queen-size bed and a bit of space to move around. The bathroom is tiny, but I think that is common in Brussels. The beds were comfortable, and the space was clean. What sets these accommodations apart, aside from the great location, is the host. Antonio was on top of everything. He sent us the entry instructions and how to operate the appliances before we checked in. We notified him when we arrived in Brussels, and he reiterated his availability for us to ask questions. He even gave us a list of sights to see and places to eat. This host cares about his guests. I would definitely recommend these accommodations to anyone who is visiting Brussels.

If you have problems with stairs, this isn't a good option. The small bathroom may be a concern for some as well. These are not really negatives for me, but things that a guest should be aware of before booking.

Great central location, plenty of restaurants in the neighbourhood. Plenty of little necessities included, like coffee pods, milk for coffee, toilet paper, soaps and shampoo, etc. WIFI very fast. Two english speaking channels on TV, CNN and BBC. The host Antonio was very responsive and helpful. I recommend 100% and would rent this apartment next time in Brussels.

Not a major issue but 35 stairs up to 2nd floor can be a challenge with heavy suitcases :-)
