I stayed at Lara's place during a work-related trip to Brussels, and I enjoyed it very much.
Although I had the chance to be in the house only for a short period of time in the evenings and in the mornings, the place deserves to be experienced during the day: the neighbourhood is plenty of bars, restaurants (I tried a Lebanese and two Italian restaurants) shops (attention: supermarkets are closed on Tuesdays!) and public spaces, without being crowded, and the house faces a school, which brings livelihood to the block. The high and arched windows open the interior of the house to a view of the quick changes typical of the Belgian sky, and every side of the house has different views of the surroundings - the intersection, the school, the backyard - associating the interior of the house with the different characters of the outer urban space. The neighbours were all very quiet.
Unfortunately my arrival coincided with an accident on Lara's side that made the check-in quite difficult to organise. However, Lara promptly repaired the situation, proving herself to be a generous, responsive, reasonable, charming, and open host.
The house has been recently renovated. The raw-wood parquet that runs throughout the entire house transforms the many spaces into a continuous interior. The living room has a very comfortable couch; the kitchen is spacious and very well-equipped; I have used the dining table as a working space, as there isn't a proper office in the house; the bed is a magnet of coziness that is difficult to escape in the mornings; and generally the house offers a family-friendly, clean, and quiet environment.
