I had a lovely time staying in Carine's beautiful house. It was well-furnished and had everything that I needed. She left many little notes around the house to explain how things such as appliances work, which was very thoughtful. Having the option to have breakfast -- freshly made coffee with homemade bread -- was great, especially on cold, rainy mornings. While Carine's place is not in the central part of Brussels, it is easily accessible on foot (~20-25 min walk). Carine has a useful collection of guides and maps of Brussels and neighbouring cities (Ghent, Leuven, Bruges etc.), and a "dossier" of personal recommendations of places to visit and eat at. I had the most amazing frites I've ever had in my life!
