My stay in Jean's place was great and I really felt at home. The place, despite being a studio is of a comfortable size for one person. It's incredibly well designed, with lots of character and has a collection of quirky and original objects, including interesting books about Brussels, art and design. Totally up my street. The bed is also very comfortable and the curtain blocks out the light. The lovely view is the icing on the cake.
The immediate surrounding of the building are not very neighbourhoody, but within 10-15mins walk you have lots of options for dining, shopping and enjoying cultural things. The closest metro stop is 1min away.
Jean was very communicative, accommodating and kind. I can throughout recommend his place.
