I spent 5 nights in the Fig Tree Apartment with my Dad, and had a great experience. Mariano, and his friend Ruben who welcomed us as Mariano was unavailable, were both extremely friendly. Mariano got in touch as soon as we arrived to make sure we had all the information we needed, and addressed all our questions. There were also lots of flyers and maps available to help plan our activities.

The apartment was really clean, comfortable, stylish and well-stocked with both kitchenware and consumables such as shampoo and cereal. We had a camp bed in addition to the double bed in the bedroom, which suited us perfectly. The wifi is fast, and the shower is great too!

The apartment is not far from the main centre of Brussels, perhaps about a 15-20 minute walk depending on where you want to go, and although we tended to walk everywhere there are lots of public transport options to get around, and also to get to and from whichever station you arrive in Brussels. There are several convenience stores nearby, and lots of great places to eat around the city. The neighbourhood is residential, and a little noisy in the front with cars going past, but the bedroom is lovely and quiet - and does look out on a lovely fig tree!

We had a great trip, and I would thoroughly recommend the Fig Tree Apartment to other travelers looking for a place for 1-3 people to stay in the city.
