Guest Reviews
- Antonia (1/5): Mala experiencia - Mala experiencia, muy negativa en nuestro primer dia de vacaciones.
No aparecieron para darnos las llaves. Tuvimos que buscar otro sitio para alojarnos
- Philippe (1/5): A fuir - A fuir. Aucun personnel ou information pour récupérer les clefs (malgré mes nombreux appels et emails), ce qui m’a obligé à rechercher un autre hôtel en plein milieu de la nuit.
- khalid (8/5): Emplacement agreable - L’emplacement et madame chantal Lit pas assez confortable, débit d’eau dans la douche est trés faible, l’eau pas suffisamment chaud, chauffage ne fonctionne pas
- MrSteady (6/5): - La ubicación en pleno centro

- Elena (10/5): Totul a fost minunat! - Totul, de la curățenia în apartament, până la locația excelentă . .
- Ana Aldabo (8/5): - Apartamento muy amplio y cómodo y situado muy cerca de la estación del norte para llegar al aeropuerto, a 10 minutos del centro andando y en calle tranquila con parada de metro en la calle de al lado. La cama comodísima y la atención de Chantal, excelente. Sin duda, recomendable. Lo único que echamos de menos fué un armario para guardar la ropa, por lo demás, muy cómodo y agradable.
- gabriela (10/5): Pratique, propre - Très bien placé, réactivité de l'hôte. L'appartement était propre, nous n'avons manqué de rien, le centre ville est à deux pas et on peut facilement faire les courses alimentaires. Proximité des transports en commun appréciable.
- Harikrishnan (8/5): - Good location for my work.
- Wilson (9/5): - Todo bien Todo bien
- ipek (10/5): -
- Kelly (5/5): - . Location good. Size of apartment was good and was warm. Linen was stained. No clean sponges in kitchen. The pillows were way too soft.
- sergio (8/5): - La ubicación, muy cerca de la estación del Norte y de restaurantes y supermercados. Los cuartos eran amplios y la zona tranquila. Se podía ir andando a los puntos turísticos del centro. Mejoraría el sofá cama que era muy incómodo.
- Mariano (5/5): Prima notte orribile - Posizione centrale Lenzuola sporche strappate
- Michele Cardinale (4/5): Se solo la pulissero... - Ottima la posizione per visitare Bruxelles, All'ingresso del condominio odore nauseante di carburante. Entrando nell'appartamento puzza di scarico del wc, appartamento sporchissimo, divano con estesa macchia evidente e male odorante. Presenza di blatte in cucina! Riscaldamento non sempre funzionante
- florencia (4/5): No lo recomiendo! - Nada Las llaves nos la dejaron en en el cajón de una cortina de enrollar de la calle a una altura q nadie llegaría salvo que viaje con una escalera.
El apto en cuanto entras al pasillo te invade el olor a mugre, luego dentro del apto no había olor feo pero tampoco estaba limpio. El sillón todo manchado, la heladera con restos de comida y la calefacción tuve que mandarle un mensaje a ver porque no funcionaba. Mensaje que nunca me contestó pero arrancó a funcionar, así q si no protestas te deja morirte de frío. Nos alojamos 3, una cama de dos plazas con colchón vencido muy incómodo y el tercero en el sillón cama q no tuvo la delicadeza de dejarlo armado ni explicar como se arma ni indicar donde estaban las sabanas. Sin duda no lo recomiendo
- Catherine (8/5): -
- Halyanova (10/5): - Всичко беше супер, локацията е перфектна ако ще разглеждате града.
- Georgii (10/5): -
- Gemma (6/5): Pis cèntric però amb moltes mancances. - Està en ple centre i és molt gran i tranquil L'apartament necessita reformes i no estava molt net, sobretot la cuina. L'escala bruta i amb mala olor. Trigaven molt a respondre per missatge i amb monosíl.labs. no se'ns va demanar cap documentació, o sigui que no vem quedar registrats enlloc. No repetiria
- Santanu (7/5): Great location - little more care can make it a 10/10 - Pros:
1.Great location right in the heart of the city
2. Big apartment perfect for a family
3. Owner was responsive Cons:
1. Little more care will make it a 10/10 place to stay in Brussels. E.g. washed laundry items were left in the washing machine, bed sheets looked dirty - probably because those were taken out of the dryer wrinkled, soda bed was not set up despite knowing that we were 3 of us
2. Could not control the heating system - was told it is preset in auto mode. We felt cold
- Andreas (6/5): Für Städtetrip als Ausgangslage gut. - Gute Lage, schnell im Stadtzentrum. Kontakt mit dem Unterkunftgeber einfach und freundlich. Hat versucht sein bestes zu geben. Heizung hat leider nur einen Abend funktioniert. Es wurde mitgeteilt , dass es sich eine Automatik handelt.
- Bayon Diaz (10/5): -
- Sándor (10/5): Well equipped flat close to everything - Well equipped flat close to everything
- Amparo (7/5): - La ubicación El edificio
- Rosa (10/5): 2 noches en Buselas para concierto en Le Botanique - La ubicación excelente para ir andando a todas partes y lugares de interés o bien para tomar transporte público para ir al aeropuerto, por ejemplo. Aunque la calle donde está ubicado se ve un poco inseguro y sucio, no tuvimos ningún problema. La anfitriona y la señora de limpieza muy atentas también. El apartamento es amplio y estaba todo limpio. Echamos de menos mejores almohadas y algunos artículos de cocina. Pero nada que fuese imprescindible.
- Caitlin (10/5): Amazing stay would definitely stay here again - Great location, very clean, lovely host Nothing was perfect
- JUAN CARLOS (6/5): BIEN SITUADO, CONFORT MEJORABLE - La ubicación era muy buena, pese a ser una calle poco atractiva no se escuchó ningún ruido. La recogida de llaves es peculiar (parece una yincana), estuvimos dos días sin agua caliente, el resto templada. No estaría de más que hubiera un armario (colgar la ropa en el lavadero...), un poco más de limpieza también se agradecería y mejorar el sofá-cama. En fin, en general el piso está bien, pero descuidado en los detalles.
- Demis (8/5): -
- López (7/5): - La ubicación era genial La limpieza, sobre todo las sábanas, estaban con la mancha de meadas y la ducha no tenía prácticamente potencia
- Lucia (8/5): Ottimo - -La posizione è ottima (centrale e dotato di ascensore)
-L’appartamento ha tutto il necessario, molto grande e arredato in maniera moderna
-Il prezzo adeguato ai prezzi di Bruxelles
-L’appartamento era pulito -L’acqua non esce come dovrebbe probabilmente un po’ di problemi di pressione
-I rumori delle persone che salgono e scendono dalle scale si sentono molto
- anymouse (7/5): - Location of the flat
Mother of flat owner was very nice lady and helpful Old furniture
No shampoo in bathroom
Towels smell was not good little
- Roberto (9/5): Cómodo y céntrico apartamento, al lado de las principales atracciones - La ubicación es excepcional! Al lado del metro, de la calle comercial y de la zona de restaurantes… tenía todo cerca!!! No desmerece en nada, mi comentario es para contribuir… quizás con un destornillador y alicate se pueden mejorar algunos detalles, como la puerta bajo el lavamanos, una limpieza a la cortina de baño, quizás cambiar el cabezal de la ducha, y limpiar con vinagre los aireadores de las llaves, y así mejorar la presión del agua… pero insisto, son detalles que no desmerecen en nada nuestra estadía!!!! El apartamento es excelente, mil veces volvería a ir!!!
- Vicky (6/5): Spacious and comfortable, but communication needs improvement. - The apartment was nice and spacious and near the city centre. Shower didn’t work properly as water pressure was very thin.
There was no hot water the last day and messaged the host to report the problem but it took him 24 hours to respond which was frustrating.
- Alina (8/5): Great stay. Centre of Brussels. Very comfortable apartment, new amenities. - New apartment. Good amenities. Shower needs some work - water pressure is very very thin.
- Carlos (8/5): Centric location - It’s in the city center and very convenient to walk everywhere. Close to shops and restaurants. Overall its good. More kitchen supplies maybe.
- Giovanni (3/5): Felt like it was owned and operated by a bachelor who's standards would be disappointed by mom. - Location was OK, but should note adult shops and clubs in the area. Not clean, had to change the sheets, luckily there was extra sets in the laundry room.
- Sándor (10/5): Spacious apartment close to the center - Close to the center, clean, comfortable, calm, well equipped, spacious
- Nirmal (9/5): Superb -
- Dinu (8/5): Very good -
- Emma (8/5): Very good - Great location and clean apartment
- Lisa (6/5): Pleasant -
- Eleonora (10/5): Very good! - Beautiful flat, well furnished, located extremely near to the city centre and metro station. //
- Jolliber (9/5): Superb -
- Royston (10/5): Recommended place in Brussels Centraal - Close to the Christmas markets and other shopping areas. Quite spacious, pictures don't really do justice. WC and bathing are are different, but this was helpful for us (small family 2+2). Good host. Nothing much
- Parkins (10/5): Great location to explore Brussels - Nice, clean, smelt really nice and in. Great location Liked it, the lift / stairs are very narrow so difficult if you have a buggy but the property itself is great
- Luka (10/5): Exceptional - Great value for money, wonderful host. Fantastic location.
- Dinu (8/5): Very good -
- Philip (8/5): Very good -
- Achillefs (8/5): Very good -
- Irina (1/5): Severe bed bug infestation ruined an otherwise well-designed apartment. - --------------------------------
This is a right of reply requested from Booking.com in response to the host’s reply to our initial review
--------------------------------
After reading your reply, we felt it necessary to request this right of reply to clarify the situation. It seems that you tend to wait until customers post negative reviews and then respond in a way that makes it difficult for them to defend their point, knowing that Booking.com doesn’t automatically allow a response. We find this tactic unfair, as it gives you the "last word" and leaves little room for us to explain our side of the story.
Duration of Stay: We stayed for 4 nights, not 6. We only noticed the bed bug problem towards the end of our stay, after one of us was severely bitten. If you haven’t dealt with bed bugs before, it’s not something you immediately look for.
Reason for Not Leaving: When we realized there was an issue, moving with children on short notice wasn’t responsible, as we wanted to avoid spreading bed bugs. Staying also gave us time to wash and dry clothes at high temperatures and seal two suitcases to minimize the risk of bringing bed bugs home. Unfortunately, some clothes were damaged due to the high washing temperatures, but we were lucky to have access to laundry facilities.
Infestation vs. Mosquitoes/Flies: While hot weather might attract mosquitoes or flies, the issue we had was bed bugs. For example, my husband felt a bed bug, got out of bed, and went to the living room where he brushed it off his leg and stepped on it—it was full of blood (photo attached in our first message). This was clearly a bed bug. Mosquitoes may have been present, but they were not the main problem.
Lastly, we’re deeply insulted by your suggestion that we fabricated this to stay for free. Our review was written to reflect our honest experience and inform future guests, not to harm your reputation.
- Alan (8/5): Very good -
- Robert (10/5): Great location, safe in the area, close to everywhere, host helpful and always online, 10/10 (0: -
- Jacqui (7/5): Location is excellent but the bathroom facilities is a bit out of date. - Excellent Location. Very close to shopping area. Bathroom- bathtub is clean but the taps is the middle of bathtub therefore it is hard to move around in having shower. Toilet area is very small and toilet is separated area to bathroom.
- Carlos (10/5): The communication with the host was great, the attention was very kind , the flat is well equipped and very comfortable. - The location is top, near historical places and very spaceful
- Victoria (2/5): Unprofessional host and rewash all dishes/utensils/pots prior to use - Location and nothing else! I sent a message to the host a few days ahead if we could check in early around 2pm and the host said it is no problem just send him a text on the actual day. We get there and the host has no instructions to get the keys and just gave me a WhatsApp number to call. When I called him he said that the place is still not ready even though check in should be at 3pm and that he needs atleast 2 hours to clean the place. How inconsiderate and he wasn’t even apologetic. Then the following day I messaged him thru booking.com to bring a fan since there are mosquitoes and it was so hot and to bring extra kitchen utensils, HE COMPLETELY IGNORED IT! No response on either WhatsApp or on booking.com. I literally had to cook using a spoon and fork. Lastly, besides the location, this place is neglected and unsanitary! The utensils/plates were still dirty from the previous people. Yukkkkk!
I am a proud level 3 status on booking.com and have rented a lot of places here but this has gotta be the worst and most unprofessional host I have ever encountered here.
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional - Location was top in the centre of the city! Clean, a lot of space, comfortable
- Tatyana (10/5): incredible apartment. there is everything necessary for living. the location is excellent, near the center. nearby shopp -
- Harish (7/5): Nice apartment for short stay - The apartment was cleaned and nice. Location was easily accessible to public transport. Lot of good kitchen cutlery was available, nice laundry facilities as well. The building was old, and the elevator was too small. The stairs were difficult to climb.
- Jose (9/5): Excellent. Great service, location, amenities. 😊I highly recommend it. - I liked the spaces, the modern kitchen and also the level of service from the hostess. The apartment was very clean too. The location was good, just 10 mins away from La Grand Place and located in a very quiet area. The elevator is very small so if you’re traveling with a lot of luggage so better travel light.
- Carlos (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michal (8/5): Very good -
- Yenwen (5/5): Passable - The location is super, you can go Brussels famous sightseeing spots by walking. Maybe it's the landlord's personal preference, but there is a picture of a skull facing the bed in the room, which is not very good.
- Rajiv (8/5): Very good -
- Aleksandre (9/5): Superb - Nice apartment at a very good location.
- Khaled (7/5): Good -
- Pavlidis (9/5): Superb -
- Christine (9/5): Fantastic location; clean, spacious apartment. - Excellent location within short walk of metro, city centre, shops etc. Great communication from the owner throughout. He met us at the apartment, welcomed us, showed us around, and explained arrangements for check out.
Apartment is very spacious and very quiet. We stayed two nights and all slept well. It was very clean and comfortable and there were plenty of towels. The shower worked well. The TV was great with streaming channels and a nice way to unwind after two busy days sightseeing. We would definitely stay again. Don't be put off by the exterior. It's very secure and very peaceful. Really minor points ...but we couldn't find a corkscrew or bottle opener in the kitchen (otherwise really well equipped); extra pillows would be good in the bedroom; coat hooks in the spacious hallway would be useful to hang up wet coats😊
- Tomasz (10/5): Good place to relax after work. - Nice apartment, close to shops, attractions, and metro.
- Sarah (8/5): Good spot for weekend city trip - Great location and super central to shopping facilities and trains. Flat has a great layout and can accommodate 3+ people comfortably. TV with different streaming apps was working nicely to put on next to brekkie. Safe entrance and spacious. However it could have been cleaner (hairs in the bathroom, toilet showing traces of previous usage). Dishes didn’t clean properly in the dish cleaner (might need more salt/maintenance).
- Liubov (10/5): It's a great option - A nice apartment with a fantastic kitchen. -
- Giuseppe (8/5): Very good -
- Lauren (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Perfect place to stay.
- Edgar (10/5): Exceptional -
- Krishna (8/5): The apartment is located in a central area. Would have liked to have basic toiletries in the flat. -
- Andrea (9/5): Superb -
- Nițu (10/5): Exceptional - Close to center, nice apartment ✨
- Valentin (10/5): Exceptional - The host reached out providing instructions very clearly. The location is great and the apartment has everything you need! Everything was perfect!
- Jenee (10/5): Great flat, amazing host, great location. - The property is in walking distance to everything. It was very clean and convenient and room for the whole family. Very comfortable stay and the host was amazing and available for all questions when asked! Nothing, we had a great first trip to Belgium.
- Olga (9/5): Superb - Very clean and spacious flat. Very close to train station to go to the airport and close to the bars, city center. Easy communication with the owner. The floors are very cold, I suggest wearing home shoes there.
- Angel (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was in a great location close to the city center, the bed and sofa bed were comfortable
- Lija (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shadi (9/5): Superb - Everything Norhing
- Ivan (10/5): Exceptional - Thanks
Good
- Angelique (8/5): Excellent location - Location was excellent. Right in the centre, short walking distance from supermarket, restaurants, shops and "Grote Markt". Although centred around erotic shops and lots of homeless people sleeping outside, it did NOT feel unsafe. Appartment was spacious and clean. Always a plus that bathroom and toilet are seperate. Although it said that there was parking facility there is NO (free) parking facility that comes with the apartment. However, there is a paid underground parking facility nearby (under Thon hotel - Manhatten Rogier). The owner did not know where we could park or what the parking rules were in the street infront of the apartment.
The kitchen is missing an oven, but a supermarket for fresh bread is nearby. Kitchen is also missing a bread knife to slice your baguettes or utensils to fry an egg.
We booked for 4 people, 2 adults & 2 kids but only received towels for 2 people.
The bedroom is missing a dresser or chair or hooks or anything where I can put clothes on.
The hallway (or any other place) is missing hooks where we could hang our wet coats (it was a very rainy weekend).
The kids (10 & 12 years old) slept on the pull out couch. They slept fine, however, this is not the type of pull out couch where you pull out a bed, but rather extend the couch into a bed. This means that there are no sheets where you sleep on and so you are sleeping on the same couch covers the previous people slept on.
But would I stay here again? Definitely yes!
- Σοφία (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment, very kind, helpful and friendly host!
- Jacob (10/5): Very good, comfortable set up would recommend to friends -
- Stella (9/5): Superb -
- Swesheka (10/5): Fantastic stay! - Loved every single thing about this place!!
I stayed with my parents and I can easily say it was the best stay ever
The place is the best. First ever stay that has looked better than the pictures. It is huge and lovely.
The host was super kind even though our plan changed and was late for the check-in around mid night. It was sweet of him to wait for us and also help us with carrying the luggage.
The location is prime and in the centre, easily accessible. It is safe
Best place for best price. I would definitely recommend this place if you're planning a stay in Brussels! It is also really close to the Brussels-North station
