Maarten’s home was perfect for our weekend trip to Antwerp!
It is the perfect location for travel across the city with quick access to all neighbourhoods via trams, bike hire, and plenty of electric scooters.
The neighbourhood is filled with great independent coffee shops (decent batch brews), natural wine bars and brunch/dinner spots. It is also a short walk away from the infamous Graanmarkt 13, St Vincent’s & De Elandje.
The apartment is very clean, with a very large comfortable bed and the entire places is beautifully lit with natural light. If you’re a light sleeper just be aware that the tram, along with other vehicles travel across the street through the evening. Whilst this didn’t disrupt us personally, it is worth knowing.
Lastly, Maarten’s apartment doesn’t have a toilet door. The space is curated and designed in a way that one may not be needed from an aesthetics pov, but if you’re travelling with a friend or new partner this is worth noting.
Overall. Highly recommended. Maarten couldn’t have been a more gracious and accommodating host. We would come back for sure!
