I spent 5 months in the room and can only recommend it, especially for long-term-stays! The room is very big, has its own sink and as it faces the backyard, it's very quiet. The flat is located close to the city centre and grocery stores are close by. The kitchen is rather small, but well-equipped for basic cooking. Maarten was always quick to respond and helpful. All in all, I'm really glad I chose Maartens appartment for my stay in Brussels and enjoyed my time there!
