I can't think of a better place to stay if you are visiting Brussels for any amount of time. The location is just incredible, and perfect for many reasons. First, it is near all the major sights and shopping and restaurants. You are literally in the main square in 60 seconds. You are also two minutes from a metro that connects to the midi station in one stop. We also loved that if you walked 5-10 minutes in the opposite direction of the tourist area, you could go to so many hidden local restaurants. The flat is also on a street that doesn't allow cars, which keeps noise down significantly Day and night. It's also not a street packed with busy shops or tons of people. I also loved that it was three flights up for the noise. We slept so well. And yes- there is no elevator, but it's Europe and you really shouldn't be traveling with tons of bags in the first place. The actual flat was beautiful, newly renovated and very smart use of space. The shower and bathroom were great, we had everything we needed in the kitchen. The upstairs was so relaxing with a very nice bed- bonus that it's a big bed, not a double that is so common in Europe. The bed linen was high end, pillows were nice. We also loved that we could do laundry, drying rack provided. Bruno himself was great, answered all emails immediately, met us at check in and showed us everything, gave some great advice for dinner spots. And he was very cool, so it was fun just talking with him. I can't recommend this place enough, I'd never consider staying anywhere else upon returning.
