Rétro Studio

The bed was really comfortable and the owner was very friendly. The location was very good as well, near the metro and tram lines, so you can easily access everywhere.

It was more than a Studio it was a small 3-room Apartment. The small apartment was spacious and clean. Adequate faciities were available to store and reheat meals or if you wanted to make a small meal that was possible.

Even though I had informed the host on May 25th of my arrival time and he said the time was ok, a last minute message on the day before my arrival (june 12) on a mulitple country vacation with a lot travelling was just too last minute. Informing me the day before of a secret location for the key didn't work for me as my mobile phone was not working at the point but fortunately, I had all my info printed out. I had no prior information about the secret location of the key. I rang the door bell several times and no one was home. I was left standing in the street thinking I was scammed of my money. In my broken French I asked a teenage boy to call the host, then I was informed about the location of the key. The host was only there one night (the night of my arrival) and the next morning. Only one (1) roll of toilet paper was provided for my 4 days and on the last day it ran out- there was no one there and I had no toilet paper!!! While the accommodation was nice, the person to person hospitality just wasn't there and in that regard the stay was disappointing.

Very nice and cozy apartment with a great connection to the most Brussels attractions. Tram is just behind the corner and Metro is just couple of minutes away. Owner is very nice and provide you all necessary and helpful information for your stay.

Quiet place, close to the market and boulangerie, close to metro station. Host is very helpful and polite. Fine place if you want to do jogging - it's almost next to Park de Laeken, 2 km and you'll get to Atomium

We rebooked this because we enjoyed this place last time, so most of this review will be the same as the previous one. The place is charming and the host very welcoming and friendly. They've got plenty of tips for places to visit! -Kitchen: Exactly like on the photos and it worked fine. Plenty of fancy dishes/cups/glasses to use. They thought of every detail, including basic condiments and coffee/cooking oil. -Living room: The sofa bed is huge, comfortable but very firm. Plenty of pillows! Nice, bright apartment with sunlight. Ear plugs are recommended for those sleeping in this room (see below). -Bedroom: Separate, so enough privacy when sharing with colleagues. Huge and the bed was very soft. -Bathroom: Has everything you need and is spacious, heats up well with the radiator. -Neighbourhood: Safe but not great, like most areas around the metro stations. Around the corner is an amazing bakery with long opening times, and a small shopping street with anything you might need. The market is really nearby. Note: It's an apartment in the top floor, above the private apartment of the hosts. You share the same entrance and stairs. But we never felt invaded in our privacy, and contact can easily be avoided if you're shy.

-Vibrating floors and sofa bed! The building literally vibrates during the day (much less at night) whenever the tram drives past, and you can even feel it while on the sofa bed. If you don't mind or can sleep in the bedroom, you'll be fine. -We knew there wouldn't be a lift, but the stairs are too narrow to carry suitcases over. The host had no problem with us leaving our luggage downstairs.

Great and super helpful hosts. Old world charm in the studio. Great and modern bathroom. Very close to the tram station and close enough to the metro. Reaching grand Place may take 2 changes in the train but it is fun. Awesome place!

All great

near a metro station, the hosts were super kind and flexible. the room is a loft in the family residence. the bed was super comfortable, but there were only 3 towels and the pull-out couch was a bit small.

fits 4 easily, but the pull-out couch isn't super comfortable. 15 drive minutes from airport, but over an hour using public transport.
