Can I give 10 stars for location?! The location was stunning. The view was amazing. Having the opportunity to be in the Grand Place square in daylight, twilight, and moonlight was very special. Hint: it’s EMPTY in the mornings for photos.
The home was clean, the bed was comfortable—so important!! The air and heating worked. We did not cook, but I noticed enough cookware if we had.
Some things to be aware of: it’s up a very narrow, sometimes winding staircase with 53 total steps to our room. That was tough with a heavy suitcase. Also, it can be loud. but: the host provided ear plugs and the loudness was coming from delightful spontaneous street art and marching band performances in the square. I often opened the window to see and hear more. The bedroom is deeper in the apartment and it was much less noise in there.
The central location, aside from the view, afforded us to wander around Grand Place extensively, eating chocolate and tasting wine and beer.
Altogether, although it was one of the more expensive accommodations in town, I was DELIGHTED by the entire experience and I would pay more and give 6 stars if I could.
