It is on the first floor of a typical Brussels house which has just been renovated and comfortably furnished.
You will find in the district many animations and restaurants (with terraces), very close supermarkets.

Sliding scale tariff according to the duration of the lodging (price envisaged for 2 people, supplement of 15 Euros / day by additional person).

Capacity for 4 people with the possibility of adding an additional bedroom in the basement (typically Brussels), just adjacent to the apartment and where can comfortably accommodate 2 additional people, with cable TV, separate individual WC and double bed.
(See photos of the basement on the site).
The additional room is optional (30 € / night) but compulsory for groups of more than 4 people. Payable in cash upon arrival.

The apartment can perfectly suit people wishing to meet for exceptional events or to visit Belgium or a group working with the nearby European institutions.

Wonderful apartment close to city centre
My partner and I stayed in this apartment in October. The apartment itself is beautiful with lots of natural light. It’s in a great location, with plenty of shops, restaurants, and activities close by and is also just a walk away from the centre of Brussels. The apartment was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. The check-in process was very smooth and Caroline and Fabrice were extremely helpful. I’d highly recommend this apartment to anyone coming to Brussels.

A very charming (4m high ceilings!) older apartment home in nice neighborhood. Very nice modern kitchen. I feel communication from host could have been better - nothing until 24 hours before check-in was not sufficient to provide assurance of actually having a room before our arrival.

Brussels visit
We enjoyed staying here while we discovered Brussels. The location was just right. Everything was clean and just as listed. One suggestion is to have a step stool to reach the kitchen cabinets, a little high for us, I needed to use a chair. Enjoyed our stay.

The house is so cool (old) and we had a good stay. The cleanliness could be improved (there were ants all over the garbage can and the bathroom smelled musty).

Cute vrbo in great location!
The apartment is very charming and in a great location! It only took us about 20 minutes to walk to the center of the town and the parliament was super close (highly recommend, tours are free). It comfortably slept 3 with the pullout sofa. Kitchen was great for making meals- only issue was that we had no paper towels/napkins.

Two Old People in Brussels.
Our stay was amazing. Love the apartment. Just the right size and well stocked. Close to everything. Our neighbor was the Science and Industry Museum. Highly recommended you go there. Learned how to Uber to get around. Antique Markets, Chocolate Shops and wonderful restaurants so close to apartment. Train was right around the corner which we took to the zoo, Pairi Daizi. The people of Brussels were lovely, willing to help us, even with language barrier. If we return to Brussels we will be staying at this location. Thank you again for the lovely stay.

A comfortable apartment in a beautiful building
A friendly, helpful host too, a park, a supermarket and restaurants nearby - no quibbles at all. Just worth noting that, as it says in the listing, the price is for two people and it costs a little extra for additional guests.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Apartment: very good. Spacious. 2 balconies. Location: very good. Near bus line. Safe and quiet. Communication: horrible. I sent 9 messages for queries but only 2 got answered and very vaguely. I showed up at the property with no details on how to check in despite multiple queries. There was a person cleaning and let me in the building then called them to tell them I’m there. Worst check in experience in all my travels. Amenities: -Towels smelled horrible. -no laundry detergent. One of the washing machines in the basement had an old, wet load in it the whole time (which explains the smelly towels). -kitchen is well equipped. I think the check in experience and lack of communication really take away of what would be a delightful place. I won’t stay here again and will not recommend it.

Wonderful apartment
The apartment was just as it was described. It was in a nice neighborhood close to the Luxembourg rail station and the street is actually the entrance to the Natural History museum. I am from the US and this was my 1st time in Europe. The kitchen and bathroom were clean and updated and the entire house still held the old-world charm. All appliances worked and there were sufficient kitchen utensils. Getting anywhere in the city was easy from this location. We were provide with many guides to the city in different languages. We enjoyed our stay.
