First, location. Ideal. It couldn't be any better. 7 minutes' walk from Central Station, 6 minutes to Grand Place, 3 minutes to St Michael's. On a very quiet one-way street.

Second, location. There's a good café twenty steps to the left out the front gate with superior croissants and pain au chocolate. Plus fresh, made-on-the-spot OJ. Farther to the left and turn left, a good selection of eateries away from the main tourist crush.

Wendy met me promptly and explained a few things like the TV and WIFI. Very pleasant greeting.

They'd also left a loaf of bread, jam, and sweet butter plus milk for coffee, and not just any bread: a sliced load from Paul. Nice touch.

The flat faces an inner courtyard and the only sounds one hears are the bells of St Michael's.

The flat is ideal for one or two and adequate for 3 or 4. Thermostat-controlled heat and on-demand hot water with excellent water pressure.

Beautifully decorated and comfortable. Modern crisp lines and colours with a touch of traditional architecture. It gives the impression that a good deal of thought has gone into the deign/decorating.

Hand soap and shower-gel provided.

I'm about to re-book.

If I have to pick a negative, it is that the front door of the lounge/living room opens directly onto the hallway which means you can hear people's conversations in the hall. It is a rare event, but anyone sleeping on the sofa in the living room, if a light sleeper, could be affected. Minor.
