This room is in a shared house where many other rooms are rented out. So it feels different than the typical house stay. However, it is very comfortable and the shared bathroom felt very private. Alin does a great job communicating about arrival and answers any questions. We did not have the chance to meet him. He does have lots of rules written out around the house but they’re very self explanatory. Just something to be aware of if you’re not flexible. I’d definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a place to stay in Brussels that is close to the city center and you’re willing to share space
