We stayed in the 4th floor loft. There is not lift, just steep stairs. There is no air con which made the room unbearablely hot. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Ended getting checking into a new hotel with Air Con that which ended being cheaper.

This is typical European apartment.

Everything was great except the size . A little bit tiny when i talk about the bed size and the size of rooms

Nice comfortable apartment, with all basic utilities needed: fridge, microwaves... Second floor without lift, separate bedroom and bathroom. Bed is big and nice. Shower is rain-type. Internet was slowish. Neighborhood is weird, big street with sex shops and mcdonalds but it didn't look dangerous to me. checkin took 5 minutes, the lady was already waiting for me.

The location is close enough to the tourist areas, however in a slightly uncomfortable area of town. The apartment was reasonably furnished for the price, however a bed leg was broken and we had to sleep on the floor....no one responded to our concern. We stayed during a heatwave, and despite this, the room was warmer than outside....it was unbearable. One note for the listing, they do not have laundry services (despite self-service laundry being listed as an amenity), and we ended up having to drag our clothes to a laundromat 10 mins away.

Nice and clean apartment. There was no elevator but who cares ;). It’s 50 meter away from main shopping street and 100 meter from bus terminal and metro station :).

Amazing stay with amazing staff. Good and clean apartment in the centre of Brussels and close to everything.

The apartment is a 10-minute walk from the Brussels-north train station, making access from Brussels-Zaventem airport easy and inexpensive (~$10 one way). The apartment is located at one end of the pedestrian area of central Brussels, directly across from the Hotel Plaza. The location is a walk up, with on-street entrances, adjacent to McDonald's. The room was clean, stocked with plates and dishes, a refrigerator and working kitchen. A grocery store is less than two minutes walk away, making it easy to use this apartment for some meals, since dining out in Brussels in extremely expensive. The room itself faced the street, and the curtains did little to block the light. Windows are not well insulated, and noise is an issue. If you have any trouble sleeping, a blackout mask and earphones (ear plugs are not enough) are a must. The furnishings are good, but starting to show their age. The photo used in the Expedia advertisement is not truly representative of the apartment in which I stayed. Other commenters have written that this is in a terrible part of Brussels above a sex shop and that they saw people selling their bodies. It is near a sex shop that also sells lingerie, but those can be found on nearly every block in Brussels. I personally did not witness anyone participating in prostitution, and I did not ever feel unsafe in any way. The apartment is also near the Brussels Metro, making travel throughout the city extremely easy and inexpensive.

We drove around the block a few times looking for a sign. No sign. Had lunch at the mall a few blocks away and received a call about checking in. Thank goodness my phone accepted the call. Walked to hotel. Nice people, clean apartment. The negatives were that we were on third floor with a lot of luggage and the floor tiles were loose so it felt like you were walking on thin ice. Received key, pulled car around and lucked out with a parking spot right in front of hotel. So, in a bit shell, if you have limited luggage and no car, it's perfect.

the apartment is v nice - fantastic location for conferences held at the crowne plaza, sheraton or hilton. however, organisation is shambolic! i was v lucky to find a staff member cleaning one of the apartments when i arrived at around 1.30pm - the door was locked at street level and she responded to me ringing all of the apartment bells. however, she did not recognise the hotels.com booking and took some convincing (in my poor french as she did not speak english) that i actually had a reservation and had paid in full. she eventually got in contact with her son on his mobile - he is multilingual and appears to run the show but is not generally on site. he explained to his mother which apartment i had rented, and i was subsequently moved from a tiny little room with only a single divan bed to a v nice studio with good facilities. the woman told me that there was no spare key to the apartment (ie so i must not lose it) and told me to put the key in the letter box when i checked out. however, there are two letter boxes near the doorway to the main apartment block entrance, and both had labels of other businesses on them. for 45 min i tried to raise attention by ringing apartment buzzers, tried to phone the contact number many times, called hotels.com for advice and eventually decided to leave the apartment door open into the internal corridor and the key on the dining table for the cleaner to collect. hours later i had phone calls asking what i had done with the keys

Quite little place. the apartment was on the 4th floor, the stairs were very narrow and spiral, not good to carry heavy bags.

The reasonable price provided good value for money. In general apartment facilities were excellent to support a week long stay. However, I would suggest the list provided below would be very helpful additions: The steep circular stairs to the apartments should be emphasised in the description to avoid elderly or infirm patrons having problems.

Its not the photos you can see on the site . No respect for the clients , you have to wait for someone to come and open the apartment which is not the one you have seen on expedia . Experience to forget .

This is a nice place despite being hard to contact and being above a discrete sex shop. But in the end this is nothing to worry about and didn't interfere with the apartment which felt quite safe.

Tried calling hotel 3 tîmes before arriving. No response to my answerphone messages! Check-in / check-out was a mess! No-one was there so I could not get the key to get in. I had to telephone two different people from my phone and then I waited In The rain with my luggage for more than 1 hour for a man to come and let me into the building. The local area is full of drunks, people selling their bodies... Even in the day time. There is no lift in the building. I had to carry my very heavy suitcase up a very, very narrow and steep staircase to the top floor apartment. It was not a nice experience. The apartment itself was very nicely maintained. My only complaint is that the bathroom was too, too small, the shower is in bad condition, and I had to buy my own toilet paper!!
