This is a gem of a place and location! We arrived later than planned due to taking the wrong train and then had issues communicating the delay to Marcelo. When we did arrive he was super accommodating. Walked us through the details and features of the apartment and gave us some recommendations of where to dine. Very nice touch was the map that he left us with. It proved to be very helpful as cellular data was not working for me in Brussels. We did also us google maps when we were on Wi-Fi. The apartment was clean and we felt like there was enough room for the three of us. Marcelo added some nice touches like milk and a supply of coffee and tea for us to use. With as warm as it was out side the apartment did stay nice and cool and we were not disturbed by the coming and going of other residence even being located close to the main door to the building. The location is very secure and we never had a concern.
The only thing I would say to be aware of is the shower. It has great water pressure but is very tall if you don't take the wand down. I don't recall if it was adjustable now that I'm typing so maybe I missed something there. Anyway it just took some getting use to how to adjust the water pressure and not get water every where. We left the bathroom fan on for a long time after showering to try to get as much as the humidity out of the air.
We were really impressed with our stay and how hospitable Marcelo's was. If you are staying in Brussels and want to be close to just about everything, stay here!
