The room has real hardwood floors, bright windows, and a good bed. Though the ceiling can be a bit cramped for someone really tall like me, that's the reality of many European homes, especially the third floor! The bathroom is very very nice, more than I could have ever expected, and Françoise provided both towels and shampoo/soap.
I will admit that in the evening the room can be very warm, even with the windows open, because there is no AC. Many Europeans would be accustomed to this, but to some American guests it can be uncomfortable. It would have been great to have a fan!
As far as location, Françoise's house is a very easy 20-minute walk from the Brussels metro through a quiet residential area and park. If you take the bus, the walk is very short.
Overall, the room was a great value and I recommend!
