Clean neat lovely room in a 2 bedroom apartment in a secure working class area of Bussells. Gran Plaz is walkable in 30 minutes, 15 to the train station. Michael greeted us, helped with the luggage (be prepared it's 4th floor-65 stairs) and gave us a few local places (ask for the Frites stand, absolutely the best in Belgium).
Mike is a grand host, always making sure you are accommodated.
The apartment and room do not smell of smoke or cats (2 friendly ones), it's clean, bright and tidy.
When we come back through Brussels again, we will stay at Mikey's.
