I booked to stay for 3 nights in Jan's apartment. The lead up to the holiday he was always available to answer my questions and would respond immediately.
We arrived on Monday 21st March 2016 and working 10mins of being in Brussels we got lost. I contacted Jan and he kindly stated that he would come and find us.
Once we got to the apartment he showed us around and even had maps of the city centre available which he explained to us the must sees of Brussels. He even made sure there was lovely coffee in the apartment!
The apartment is located a quick 7 mins walk from the city centre! Perfect location!
Unfortunately on Tuesday 22nd March we woke up to the awful news that Brussels has been attacked. Jan came down to ensure we were ok. He reassured us and said that if we have any questions to contact him. This made us feel safe instantly. We were advised to stay in the apartment initially. I text Jan to ask him if he had any milk we could use for coffee. Within 10mins he had popped to the shop and brought us back milk, juice, croissants, biscuits, crisps. How thoughtful!!
He text me later on in the day to see how we were doing. He say we should go out later in the afternoon and see just how the people are unifying and dealing with just a tragic situation. We did just that!!
Jan is a host that always had time for you. The apartment is perfect that even for the day we were at home we felt comfortable and safe.
I only have positives to say about Jan and his apartment!!
