Once your taxi driver is able to get over the shock of dropping you not at a hotel and then at a door with dodgy blue graffiti, you'll soon realise how brilliantly located this apartment is for short walks into the grand place and the Christmas sights around the town. Yes the communal staircase leads a lot to be desired but the apartment itself is trendy and well catered for. If you have Nespresso capsules at home then pack them as there's a machine to use in the morning. Otherwise filter coffee is provided you just need to hunt out some milk beforehand. We ate at la Maree for dinner one evening and had breakfast at Chicago which was fab. Both less than 5 mins walk from the apartment. Friday nights were a little noisy from the DJ set playing in the bar below but Saturday was a lot quieter! Just be warned for your journey back home, local taxi drivers seem fairly reluctant to pick up people without pre bookings. We ended up walking to the euro star terminal in the end, took about 25 mins.
