Daan's apartment is a lovely, stylish space which is perfect for 2 people. Daan was very responsive upon our arrival in Brussels and provided directions when we were slightly lost. Daan also provided a very comprehensive short tour of the apartment and kindly provided us with some local information which we had asked for upon booking.
Although we did not use the kitchen space much, everything is there, with plenty of cups and cutlery etc. The dining space is nice with big windows to look out onto the street. The living room is quite spacious, with a big sofa and a TV. The bedroom has everything you need really, the perfect size, along with an ensuite bathroom which is compact yet not too troublesome.
The location of the apartment is very convenient as it's right next to the Horta metro station, and there are bus stops and trams nearby too. Brussels is actually a very compact city, Daan informed us that we can walk to the centre within 40 minutes! What I would say is that if you're not fluent in French you may come across some language barriers in Saint-gilles. We didn't run in to too many problems, but some of the metro workers and shop staff only spoke french. The metro timetable also changes sometimes depending on the day and time, so do some research on public transport and learn some very basic French and you'll be fine. This isn't a comment that reflects Daan's apartment, but I feel like it's helpful to know if you're staying in the area.
We both had a lovely time in Daan's apartment and we would recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Brussels and the surrounding area, but wishes to stay out of the inner city.
