The place was as listed, 10-15 minutes from most places that you would visit while in Brussels including Grand Place, the 2 train stations nearby. The palace was a little farther to walk but still manageable. The apartment was cozy and had everything we needed for our weekend getaway but biggest issue we had was with the elevator smell. Fortunately, the apartment itself did not smell and was quite clean actually. The bathroom layout was a little odd, shower and a small sink in the bedroom and the toilet all the way across the apartment towards the front door with no sink---just be aware of it, it wasn't terrible, just took a little getting used to since we definitely wash right after using the bathroom usually while in the bathroom. Flori was so sweet to make sure we could get in so she had her friend let us in as Flori was out of town. Her friend was also very sweet and made sure we were comfortable. If you don't mind walking 0.5-1 mile to train stations or tourist places, this is a great spot.
