I had a lovely time staying at Esmara and Philippe’s. The location was very close to the main attractions of Brussels and very central. Location wise it was extremely convenient for the local train to Antwerp and Ghent (easy day trips) and to/from the airport. It was only a 20 minute walk to the other train station that serves the Eurostar to London/Paris. The apartment itself was clean and well stocked, with a minimalist design but all the things you’d need to be comfortable. Importantly it also happens to be extremely close to all the gay bars and it a perfect spot for anyone looking to have some nights out on the gay street. There were plenty of good food options near by and lots of small grocers for refreshments and snacks. The bed was comfortable, and shower always had warm water with good pressure. There was the smallest issue with getting into the apartment late one night and Esmara and Philippe sorted out the issue in a matter of minutes. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!!
