Laurent as well as his appartment can both only be highly recommended. Our host was always easy to reach and very helpful (he was even so kind to carry my suitcase up the stairs to floor four). He had prepared a long list of "how-to's" that answered all our questions.
Laurent's appartment is perfect if you want to discover Brussles by foot. Only 3 min. from the Grand Place area with all its bars and restaurants and only 5 min. from the central train station, it was the perfect match for me and my friend. The whole appartment was immaculately clean and he even offered that we could use his milk, beer, coffee and cornflakes in the fridge. If the windows are closed, it is very quit in his rooms eventhough you are located so centrally. The area is very save and you will always find your way back. In the direct neighbourhood there are shops, a supermarket (350 m) and a bakery (150 m).
I can really recommend this place and I am sure I will come back next year.
