We spent a fantastic Christmas in Veerle's apartment. The location could not be better, tram from train station stops right outside and walkable to all the main sights. The Christmas market is literally just a stone's throw away. There is a bit of noise which you would expect being so central but when we closed the bedroom door at night it was very peaceful.
The kitchen is well equipped and the space is very stylish. Shower hot and powerful. TV even has BBC one and two! There are a few DVDs, mainly The Wire and Curb your Enthusiasm, also some books including Rick Steve's very good guide book on Belgium.
There is an excellent supermarket about 2 minutes walk away, Albert Heijn, which does a huge range of vegetarian stuff.
Veerle sent some very clear instructions on how to access the apartment and was responsive to questions. The check in time of 3pm and check out time of 11am is also better than you get in a lot of places now.
All in all, highly recommended, thanks Veerle!
