This was my first time to try airbnb and I am thankful that I had Leo as my host! I had my apprehensions at first but she put me at ease right away. We shared travel experiences over a tub of really good local ice cream. :)
The room that I booked (private room, not the one by the kitchen) was as described-- very spacious, decor was a bit eclectic but really nice, bed and pillows were comfy, it has a small balcony, huge windows. Toilet and bath is on the upper floor, and are shared with long term guests who occupies other rooms in the flat. Bring your own bath towel as this doesn't come with the room. The room doesn't have lock, by the way.
The flat is in a residential area, quiet and relatively safe to walk even at night. It has a similar vibe to the Arab Street of Singapore. Train and tram are a short walk away. By metro, it'll take about 30mins to get to the main square. The station closest to the flat (Bockstael) opens around 5:30am. If you need to get somewhere early in the morning, Leo has the number of a reliable taxi operator. There's a laundry shop about 2blocks from the flat, and a mini-grocery shop as well. Leo will give you a map and teach you how to get to the places of interests (e.g. Atomium, Royal Palace, church) in the area.
