We loved our stay at Vincent’s place. As soon as we arrived he helped us with our luggage and took the time to sit down and advise us on nearby essentials and attractions. He was super responsive and accommodating.
The apartment: the space is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. Comfy bed, nice kitchen, large and beautiful windows; it is just as it is pictured and presented. The building has a ton of winding stairs - which isn’t a complaint but just something to note.
The area: we love love loved the area. It is much less of a touristy area but the tourist attractions are still completely and conveniently accessible. There are multiple train stations nearby and we never had any trouble getting around. The surrounding streets are lined with great shops, restaurants, bars, cafes, and even a grocery store (monop) that stays open until midnight. There is an adorable cafe right on the corner that is perfect for morning cafe and croissants.
All and all, we really loved our stay and, even as we sit in beautiful Brussels writing this, are experiencing Paris-nostalgia.
