Karin was a lovely host. She met us at the space, showed us around and recommended us her three personal favorite restaurants.
The space itself was beautiful. Karin really went the extra mile to make the space feel both comfortable, and luxurious like you would expect from a nicer hotel. Well-designed, comfortable and gorgeous furniture. Huge windows looking out onto the square, which was fantastic. Lots of unique touches. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms were lovely. In the larger bedroom, she provides a space with lots of different hangers on which to hang your clothes. There are plenty of hooks as well as some shelf space. Gorgeous bathroom and wc, with complimentary toiletries and luxurious bathrobes for all the guests. Seriously, the bathrobes were amazing - the inside was like a fluffy towel, and the outside was super-soft and luxurious. The kitchen is small but totally accommodating, as some local friends came over and cooked us a full dinner, no problems.
The location was amazing. Once we got to the square in which the apartment is located, I immediately wished we were staying longer. Several restaurants, and plenty of tables and chairs out in the middle of the square, people bustling all day. It was really a joy. Also we were a short walk from everything we wanted to see, and right by the river. I will definitely be doing everything I can to stay here again the next time I am in Antwerp.
I highly recommend Karin's space - you won't be disappointed. And if you're lucky, you might even get to meet her adorable pup, Mr. Scotch.
