Fabulous location for visiting Brussels

This is not a hotel but an apartment. So no front desk or breakfast. The location can’t be beat. It’s located in the pedestrian only historic district. It’s a block away from the cool bars and restaurants and a few blocks from the Grand Place. It’s a bit pricey but good for 3+ people.

Fairy Tale Room

Fairy Tale Room and room is clean and nice guest service. Great location easy to city centre on foot, and near a supermarket, make up shop and shopping mall. But no elevator and I think the stair a little bit tiny. Overall, it is a amazing house.

Indignação!!!

Ainda estou hospedada, mas deixo aqui minha indignaçao quanto as comodidades oferecidas. Comodidades? Me deram um quarto onde tenho que subir váaaarios lances de escada minuscula e com malas. O wi-fi é pessimo! O banho então... O chuveiro está com problema, não alternando o chuveiro com a ducha, conclusão, a água sai em pouca quantidade pelos dois. Se não bastasse, só pode tomar banho por 4 minutos, pois a água quente acaba, tendo que esperar por 2 horas para que o outro tome banho por mais 4 min. Somos um casal!!! Reclamamos com o David, nosso contato e, essa foi a informação passada. Pedimos a troca de apto, mas não estavam disponíveis. Conclusão: O que podemos fazer???? Nada!!!!!!!! Temos que ficar por e 4 dias em um local em que a TV, wi-fi e o chuveiro não funcionam como deveriam e, se quiser tomar um banho decente, que esperemos a próxima estadia. Está correto? Pra mim é propaganda enganosa. Eu fiz a minha parte, já paguei, o mínimo que eu espero é que a contrapartida seja feita.

Apartamento confortável e bem localizado

O apartamento é excelente. Ótimos eletrodomésticos, tudo funcionando a contento. O apartamento estava bem limpo e bem mantido. A localização é perfeita: bem no centro turístico de Bruxelas. O staff é maravilhoso - o Philippe é um lord e estava sempre disponível. Se eu for obrigado a fazer uma crítica, direi apenas que falta aquecimento no corredor (tem em todos os quartos) - aí, sair do banho é um pequeno desconforto. Mas é imaterial e nós adoramos.

Great location

Location is excellent. Close to Central station, and Brussels center tourist attractions. The apartment is nothing fancy but is clean, equipped with everything and owner is friendly and cooperative.

sejour agréable à Bruxelles

Philippe est très accueillant. L'appartement est parfait, bien équipé et très bien situé en plein centre de la vieille ville. Seul bémol la rue est très bruyante malgrés les doubles vitrages.

Nice AirBNB

It’s weird to book on hotels.com and end up in an AirBNB style room. This was a studio apartment in the Grande Place, which was great, but we had planned on staying at something more hotel-like. Still, a very nice place in a great location, just didn’t know what I was getting into when I booked.

Bien comunicado, pero.....

Los apartamentos están muy bien situados a un paso de la Grand Place. Se entra por unas galerias que pasaron su época dorada hace décadas. Los propietarios (en nuestro caso su sobrino) son muy amables y serviciales. Esta es la parte buena, ahora voy a hablar de la mala. Cuando llegamos hacía un calor dentro del apartamento infernal, y el calor no se iba ni con todas las ventanas abiertas. había dos ventiladores que lo único que hacían era remover el aire caliente. ese calor nos acompaño hasta que nos fuimos. A esto hay que añadir que nuestra habitación daba a Rue de la Fourche, que es una calle de bares y la marcha los días que estuvimos acababa entre semana a las tres o cuatro y el fin de semana entre ocho y nueve de la mañana, por lo que ni locos podíamos abrir las ventanas por la noche. Conclusión: IMPOSIBLE descansar. En resumidas cuentas, si lo que buscas es ubicación a toda costa estos son tus apartamentos, pero asegúrate de que no den a Rue de Fourche.

Bruksel merkezinde guzel bir konaklama

Otelin konumu brussel centrala 5 dklik yurume mesafesinde. Canli ve aradiginiz herseyi yurume mesafesinde bulabilirsiniz. Konumu muhtesemdi. Ama bunun yaninda aksam baslayip sabaha kadar suren bagirmalar ve ses de beraberinde gelebiliyor ozellikle haftasonu bu acidan rahatsizdi. Odamiz fotografta gordugum oda olmamasina ragmen yine kucuk ve sirindi. Yeri ilk etapta bulmakta biraz zorlansamda sonrasi kolaydi. Ulasim telefon numarasi sitede yanlis verildi. +32475601752 aslinda. Ev sahibi Philip bizi sicak karsilayip sonrasinda da valizlerimizle ilgili yardimci oldu. Ben kisa sureli konaklama icin oneriyorum

Excellently locates. Unreachable by vehicle which means a 100-meter trek from the road. But very good location and good conditions of flat

A lovely stay in the citycenter of Brussels. Everything was close, restaurants, shopping and public transports. A cosy room with a small kitchen and IKEA furnitures. The check-in was smooth, just a phonecall and in a few minutes the landlord arrived. I recommend it.

Perfekt läge mitt i Bryssel

Ett lägenhetshotell mitt i centrala Bryssel , perfekt läge. Ägarna väldigt vänliga och hjälpsamma. De enda negativa var att vi fick rummet högst upp - mkt trappor.

Check In difficult; Staircase impossible

The address in Expedia was incorrect. I had to navigate through a shopping area before finally arriving at the entrance of the building. The staircase to the room is narrow and winding. I had a large and heavy suitcase. It was nearly impossible to get my luggage to my room, which was on the top floor. Once I was in the room, it was clean, and the bed was comfortable. I was also woken in the middle of the night by a group of partying drunk folks in the alley way.

Clean, basic apartment in centre of Brussels

Overall happy with our stay. This is NOT a hotel though, it is an apartment in a block behind a very dingy shopping centre - some of the apartments are in this shopping centre. The room itself was nice, good bed and sofa, table with 4 chairs and a kitchen with all the equipment you might need for a short stay. The toilet and bathroom are clean but in need of updating and some nice toiletries and fluffy towels would make a big difference, as would a few extra pillows. No view, just looks out onto windows of adjoining block, but only a couple of minutes walk from Grand Place. If you want a decent base for exploring the old city of Brussels, the location is great and as long as you aren’t expecting frills or luxury, this is decent accommodation. You can’t tell when booking (on this site) which apartment you are getting, so might be worth checking as I would not have been happy to stay inside the dodgy, dirty shopping centre.
