This house is in a very quiet area just outside of Brussels. It's a 1 minute walk to the metro (and then 10-15 min to the Center). The street has a lot of small restaurants and cafés and there's a small supermarket up the street. It's a great house for a family and Sophie as a terrific host. We were 2 kids and a small dog and had plenty of space. The only thing that perhaps be noted is that the family seems to be re-doing some of the door frames, so there are some small holes in the walls where the work needs to be completed. Along those lines the banister of the stairwell has come off and needs to be re-attached. But these things in no way interfered with our very pleasant stay.
