Worst travel accommodation I have EVER experienced in all my 20 years of travelling. Believe me, it is hard to take that prize, because you couldn't even possibly imagine the places I have stayed. Spend the extra 5 euro a night and stay at a hostel near the center. I promise you it is well worth it. I rented the "sleep on the mattress" room. The host is a nightmare, no key on lock, she sends you messages everyday while you are trying to enjoy your trip, don't even consider taking a late night shower after a long day and night in the center, this will lead to her trying to bust into the restroom while you are in the shower and then waiting by the door until you get out to demand the apartment key back. Then the final straw is was that she intentially placed a Samsung PDA device in the room and set an alarm for 2 hours before i needed to check out, which obvously woke me up much earlier than i wanted. The host smokes cigarettes all day and night on the balcony and leaves the door open so smoke fills the apartment and your room, the room I slept in has the raunchy old dirty mat next to the mattress that makes you wake up with allergies and swollen eyes. It's just not worth it. I tried this home out to save money, but I did not save money anyways due to having to pay for transportation everyday. I would have stayed in the center if I had known it was this bad. It would have cost the same or I might have actually saved money. I will be travelling back to Brussels in about a month for an extended stay and I will absolutely NEVER stay at this AirBnB again!
