Saskia’s home was everything we hoped for ! She’s was very lovely and pleasant and even though we were late from being lost on the metro she was there to meet us . She was great at giving advice on where to eat close by and transport links and there was plenty of information for where and how to travel to around brussels and nearby places :).
Her home is like a Pinterest inspiration.
We stayed in the top floor and had a private room , lounge, shower and toilet almost like a mini apartment . Saskia was kind enough to supply us with towels , hair straightners, hair dryers , hairspray, shower caps etc.
We had access to a microwave , fridge , kettle , coffee tea etc in the lounge which was lovely after a long day travelling .
I didn’t smoke but my partner did and we had access to a rooftop balcony that had a great view of the surrounding neighbourhlodand with their cats :).
Shower was very powerful and bed was very comfy . We had a great nice sleep as neighbourhood was quiet and there was less traffic. We only stayed for one night but Saskia help direct us to our bus (number 14 to brussels nord station for ghent ) which was right round the corner from her home . We arrived their from Belgica metro station which was only a 15 minute walk . We wished we could’ve stayed longer as it was really such a lovely wee home and with a such delightful hostess . My partner and myself travel a lot and we were so delighted with our stay. Thankyou and please come visit us in scotland soon !
