We were the lucky first Airbnb guests to stay at Charis' wonderful apartment. We absolutely loved it. The apartment itself is brand new, clean, bright, quiet and spacious. It has a private parking spot in the garage below the building. We really enjoyed the balcony which is large enough to have lunch and dinner with four people and enjoy the beautiful view of park "Park Spoor Noord". This park is another big plus: a beautiful, open park with a positive vibe where hipsters, families, and kids play sports and hang out (be sure to visit the "summer-cafe" Cargo with its' "beach in the city" vibe!). On one rainy day, we visited the nearby mega-cinema Kinepolis. The centre of Antwerpen is easily reached by a foot or by bus. Of all the neighborhoods we visited in Antwerpen, this one was our favorite.

Charis is a excellent and accommodating host. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome and at home. Communication with Charis was swift and pleasant.

I will definitely recommend this AirBnB to my friends (in fact: I already did)
