Stephanie was a great host! She was always helpful when we asked questions. She even waited back at the apartment after we checked out so my friend's suitcase could be picked up by a courier. The apartment is exactly as it looks in the photos and was clean and warm. The apartment is literally right across from the metro station and Brussels Midi for train connections to elsewhere in Belgium/internationally is only 2 stops away. There is also a supermarket within walking distance. As others have said the apartment is 3 floors up with no lift so if you have a lot of luggage be prepared for a struggle. While we felt perfectly safe as two young women in the neighbourhood during the day, we wouldn't have wanted to walk further than Stephanie's apartment at night alone (similar to other cities/areas around the world). Overall, the apartment was a comfortable base for our stay in Brussels :)
