This apartment is in a great location, within a 5 minute walk to Grand Place, and a 10 minute walk to train and tram station and with lots of good places to eat nearby. Laura is a good communicator, and was flexible with check in and check out times which helped us a lot. Like most houses in Brussels, the steps up are narrow and winding, and once you arrive on the main floor sitting area/kitchen level there are still more steps to get up to bedroom and bath level--not a problem for us, but it could be difficult for a large person who is not in good shape. We were there over a long weekend and did not find the neighborhood noisy.
