Marc and Sandra were amazing, hospitable, thoughtful hosts! Communication was excellent leading up to and throughout our stay. When we arrived, they were waiting for us along with their cute cats Victor and Hugo! The cats stay out of the apartment so don't worry if you’re not a cat person. Marc and Sandra live upstairs in the same building, so they are always close by if you need anything. But you also still have personal space.
My girlfriend and I travel full-time so we needed to have a few things mailed to the apartment and Marc was more than accommodating. There is plenty of personal space for working and probably the strongest WiFi I've had in Europe. The apartment has everything you need for a month + stay. Antwerp is dope AF. The neighborhood is diverse, clean, safe, central, and right near the train station! Grocery close by. They had great recommendations on local summer events happening. We even had some issues with our flight out and they both went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. I think my only recommendation is to not leave the windows open in the summer as little mosquitoes would get in, which this was really my own fault.
Really great people, great apartment, awesome city! Seriously my only regret is not staying in Antwerp longer!
