Extremely desirable location just off the Grand Place. My wife and I were able to fall out of the apartment and immediately be in the midst of countless cafes, bars, shops and Christmas markets.
The check-in process was clearly communicated and, although we didn't have any issues during our stay, it was obvious that the hosts respond very promptly to any queries or concerns.
Street noise was minor and should be viewed as part of the charm. The stairs are indeed steep but I was able to haul our oversized luggage up with a little sweat.
It was an incredibly memorable place to spend our winter holiday and I'm looking forward to our next stay.
