We stayed in Andrew's place for a week during late July. Unfortunately, we did not get a typical feeling of an airbnb stay when we paid $218/night. We do not recommend this place, nor will we return to this place again.
Pro:
1. Andrew is very prompt in communicating with us. He would respond quick and in a timely fashion.
2. There is a working elevator in the building.
3. The location is good. There is a bus right downstairs that take you to Brussels Central station .
4. Many plates and cups are there.
Con:
1. The place is not even half as good as the picture shows. It is outdated, lacking modern features and equipments.
2. The kitchen is very small where two person cannot even stand without bumping to each other. One cannot really see this from the picture at all due to the angle.
3. There was hardly any usable pots and pans. Two pans were very old and we did not feel comfortable cooking in them.
4. We look forward to cooking when we get an airbnb. Unfortunately, we could not do so due to lack of equipments in this apartment. There is no oven in this place.
5. The refrigerator is a very small one: far from a full size one. It is more like a mini fridge you see in hotel rooms. Again, the picture (to us) was misleading. There was hardly room for multiple take out food and food you would cook. Freezer space is too small.
6. We were told there would be two fans. There indeed were two. One of them was fine ... a small circular one with decent airflow. The other one was even smaller, with limited airflow. Andrew did come over to show different speeds of that fan, but even at highest speed there is hardly much flow. For $218/night, we expected much better.
7. Bathroom was old and outdated as well. There is a bit of fall risk when. getting into the tub and out.
8. Linens and towels supplied were minimal at best.
We stayed in many airbnbs throughout Europe and US, and this was certainly the worst for the price we paid.
