This place is a gem. The location, the decor, the clean bathroom and comfy bed (except for the pillows for us). We made coffee in the kitchen and ran downstairs to get frites when the mood hit. The apartment is a few steps away from the majestic Grand Place - you can see a peek of the cathedral’s spire from the windows/balcony. Having Netflix was a much appreciated bonus as I started getting a cold and wanted to lie down and watch some of my favorite shows while on the mend. What a treat!
Unfortunately we were really looking forward to doing some laundry after traveling for a while only to learn the dryer was not working after we had sopping wet clothes in the washer. I messaged and called John and I wished he would’ve called me back instead of messaging to say he missed the call, to save some back and forth. Still, he did check in a few times afterwards, which we appreciated, and it turns out the dryer did need repairs. We made do and hung our clothes in rotation on the towel warmer rack, which took a chunk of time. Also, there weren't any single toiletries, not even a smidge of soap. It’s always frustrating to pay so much to stay at these places and have to run out and buy shampoo, etc.
Nonetheless, we would stay here again without hesitation. It’s a really good space that has all you need and it’s warm and cozy and in an excellent location. You won’t be disappointed! Just an FYI: the spiral stairs leading up to the apartment are very steep. We ran into another female guest of John’s for another one of his spaces in the building and my husband had to help her carry her luggage up. It’s tricky but doable!
