Our host was unable to meet us in person as she was away on holiday herself. She was, however, in communication with us before our stay, providing very useful directions from the airport and arranging for her friend to help us check in. It was a shame that the check-in time had to be changed after we booked flights which led to us having to carry luggage around Brussels with us for half a day.

The apartment was very clean and beautifully decorated. It looked the same as in the pictures. The lounge and bedroom are flooded with natural light on a morning which was pleasant and the bed was very comfortable. A couple of things to note are: there is a glass-less window between the bathroom and bedroom and the kitchen is just a hob & kettle (no oven, grill, microwave or toaster).

We found the location very convenient for both walking and using public transport into the city center. There are a few small shops very close to the apartment which we utilized.
