It was that particular case when reality does not meet any of your expectations. At least it was beyond all of MY expectations. In three words IT WAS WONDERFUL.
Thanks to such an amazing host as Kristof our stay in Antwerp became an unforgettable experience. It was like real home for us for 4 days. What else do you need in an unknown, cold (due to bad weather) town but cosy place where you can spend time having another cup of hot tea and listening to the vinyl records. Yes, you have heard me right, Kristof has an amazing collection of records!!! I have not listened to any of those for ages!! Kristof's place was really like time machine, where you would feel a bit nostalgic probably.
Kristof mention in his description that he loves his apartment and he definitely does, and you will see it in every small detail there. Sometimes you do not really need a huge expensive apartment to feel yourself like in a five-star hotel, do you? Something like Kristof's place can give you much more - for me it was probably inspiration (how on earth do you think a med. student like me can write such a long review then)
As one of my friends who I was staying with said "Kristof might have a very warm personality just by looking at this apartment".
And he turned out to be a very easygoing person who helped me a lot to find the place where I can spend time in Antwerp.
Believe me, I am not usually leaving such a long and detailed review, but this place deserves it.
Actually, it was my second stay with Airbnb that was beyond description. Thank you!!
If I travel to Antwerp again, and I guess I certainly go there someday, I will stay here again.
Beyond 10 out of 10! Excellent!!
