Ryoko's apartment is right in the heart of Brussels and was an amazing location to get to everything we wanted to see (mostly on foot!) during our stay. Being around the corner from plenty of great places to eat, as well as a wonderful coffee shop at the base of the building, was awesome. There's a grocery store across the street as well which was really convenient to pick up drinks, snacks, and even pastries one morning.
One thing to note: due to the location, it can get quite noisy on the street in the evening but that's what you would expect in the center of the city! It was nice and quiet in the bedroom on those noisy evenings though when it was time to get some sleep.
Overall, we had a great time in Brussels made even better by our stay at this apartment!
