Bruno and Iren, our hosts, were more welcoming and friendly than we could possibly imagine. Right from the time that we booked, Bruno was regularly in touch with us, providing guidance and all necessary assistance. Upon our arrival, he arranged to have a colleague pick us up from the train station. On one evening, we even had Bruno and Iren spend time with us over a few drinks, and regaling us with tales of their lives and travels.

The apartment is even better than what it looks in the pictures. Each piece of furniture is so thoughtfully chosen, and is a work of art in itself. It is not only spacious, but a fantastic blend of modern styling and antique touches. The location simply couldn't be better - walking distance from the Grand Place, and close to almost everything that is worth visiting or seeing in Brussels.

All in all, our first experience on AirBnB turned out to be truly memorable, thanks to Iren and Bruno.
