The apartment is beautiful, clean, and located in the heart of the old city. It is a 20 minute walk from the train station. I attended a conference near the train station and the apartment was a perfect choice. The neighborhood is very lively. The tapas restaurant directly below the apartment was wonderful. Winny the owner also recommended a local restaurant that serves Belgian food that was outstanding and very reasonably priced called De Bomma. The noise outside the apartment is a joyful noise of people having a wonderful time talking. The bedrooms are on the back side of the apartment and were quiet. It was a great place, I can't imagine you can stay in a better location in Antwerp than this location.
