As a solo female traveler, this was the perfect room. It isn’t right in the center , but it’s very close to public transportation. I prefer walking and I thought it was completely fine (especially because you can walk through Botanique!) Carine’s apartment was perfect! It was clean and well- labeled. She provided many different amenities and had a wall in the kitchen filled with guides for Brussels and local tips. There is a lock on the door, so you can lock your own room. While there are other guests, it never feels crowded (it is actually quite comforting) and I would highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Brussels.
