Our flight got rescheduled so we had to book 1 night in Brussels. We found Gab's listing and we booked the place for 1 night.
We asked him if we could check in a bit sooner that 3pm and he replied that we need to pay extra fees for that. We declined and got there at 3pm. Once we got in, the heating was completely turned off and the room was cold and the air was funky. This made a bad impression on us as we kindly asked if we can check in sooner and we were told that we need to pay extra even though the room was empty.
There was no soap or anything in the bathroom. We messaged him asking about that - no reply.
His house rules stated absolute silence not to bother the other guests in this Aparthotel. There was a party all night long right next to us and we managed to get to sleep around 4am. We woke up at 7 to a message from the host, who was pointing out again that we need to check out before 11 or else extra fees will be added...
Overall, we had a not-so-good experience with this host and his place.
