Mariano was a great host, he was very helpful with his vast knowledge about the area and made sure my needs were met perfectly. His home is lovely and artistically designed. The cocoon studio was nicely decorated, very clean, comfortable with good wifi connection. I greatly appreciated the privacy and the amenities it offered, especially the newly built mini kitchen that functioned perfectly. He also supplied the basics for breakfast which was great. Saint-Gilles area has many hidden Art Nouveau treasures, a great place to get lost and experience great architecture away from the common touristic area. An interesting place where many cultures living simultaneously and has a great artistic vibe. Grand - Place can be easily reached by bus or in my case I enjoyed walking to explore different authentic neighbourhoods, shops, galleries and cafe's.
Definitely a great place to stay if you visit Brussels.The studio price is very reasonable for what it offers. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you Mariano, I enjoyed my stay.
