Lina was a great host - very welcoming and accommodating. She checked in on me several times and was very accessible. The apartment itself is beautiful and charming and has everything you need for a short stay. Very open, great lighting, and cozy. Only downside is that in the hot summer, there is no ventilation so it is impossible to stay there; I had to sleep on the floor in the downstairs several times because the windows in the loft cannot be opened. Since Brussels is not very hot usually, I don't think this would be a problem for most months. The location of the apt is perfect to access the city, but as a solo female, I did not feel safe in Saint-Josse during the night (the apartment itself is very safe, though).
