We had a great weeklong stay and would definitely stay again. Small, clean apartment, great location, great local atmosphere compared to a hotel. Two blocks from the Anvers Metro could not be more convenient. Saturday night things got pretty loud in the building but quiet the other six nights. Washing machine is tiny and in an incredibly awkward spot, be prepared to get on your knees and contort one arm to add and remove clothes, but it worked great and got the job done. Never met Yann but he arranged for us to get into the apartment without a problem.

Some FYIs that worked well for us:
Half a block west (turn right exiting building) is the Supermarket 8 à Huit, with all the grocery staples you might need, particularly wine, beer, and a small but good selection of cheese. They have bread also, but instead of buying it there walk another block down Rue d’Orsel to the corner of Rue des Martyrs and buy your bread at La Flûte de Pain. Wonderful stuff. For a much larger selection and better prices than 8 à Huit make a left at La Flûte de Pain and walk a long block down Rue des Martyrs to Boulevard de Rochechouart to the small Carrefour at the corner. For a terrific place to eat make a right at La Flûte de Pain and head a half block up Rue des Martyrs to Le Miroir. Excellent and very reasonable.
