I highly recommend staying with Michael if you are visiting the Brussels region. His place was really nice, well decorated, comfortable, and clean. The guestroom bed is really comfy and we slept really well. The neighborhood is a nice location, we loved seeing some of the Art-deco architecture that St. Gilles has to offer. We also liked being so close to the city center but still far enough away from the touristy areas to find some local restaurants and bars. We really loved meeting Michael, he was so kind to us!! Thanks again for hosting us :)
